The Xinjiang Energy Regulatory Office recently organized an on-site safety management exchange meeting for thermal power projects under construction across the region, attended by over 50 participants including relevant officials from the autonomous region and corps energy authorities, as well as representatives from project construction units. The meeting combined on-site observation with discussion, and attendees first visited the construction site of the Yili Zhongmei 2×660 MW combined heat and power project.
During the discussion session, representatives from various thermal power project construction units reported on progress in areas such as long-term safety management mechanisms, safety development at the grassroots team level, and the application of smart construction site systems, and exchanged typical safety management practices. The autonomous region and corps energy authorities put forward safety management requirements for advancing thermal power project construction.
The Xinjiang Energy Regulatory Office set out clear regulatory requirements for the next stage of construction safety and engineering quality of thermal power projects. Units are urged to deeply learn the lessons from the exceptionally severe Liuyu Valley "5·22" gas explosion accident and fully reinforce the safety defense line for project construction. The requirements cover five aspects: consolidating safety responsibilities to prevent any gap; focusing on high-risk projects and rigorously carrying out safety risk control and hazard investigation and rectification; continuously strengthening safety education and training for all personnel to enhance safety awareness and emergency response capabilities; deepening technology empowerment to upgrade on-site project management; and maintaining a high-pressure stance on production safety, resolutely combating "three violations", and taking multiple measures to manage on-site safety control for construction projects, strictly guarding against safety blind spots caused by management gaps, preventing risk spillover and chain reactions, eliminating the "butterfly effect" in production safety, and resolutely preventing and curbing all types of production safety accidents.
The exchange meeting covered a total of 11 thermal power projects under construction across Xinjiang, aiming to enrich the "Safety Production Month" activities and implement the spirit of recent national production safety video conferences and those held by the National Energy Administration.
