Now I would like to introduce the arrangement of charity rural poverty relief projects: the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs, the Provincial Charity Federation and the State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power Co., Ltd. recently jointly launched the "Charity Photovoltaic" rural poverty relief project in the province, which is jointly funded by the provincial, municipal, county (city, district) charity associations, Install distributed photovoltaic power generation equipment of no less than 3KW for rural low-income families who have demand and meet the conditions in the province, or build small photovoltaic power stations on other available vacant land such as the roof of public housing in villages (residents) that meet the installation conditions. The income increase is used for charity assistance. It is planned to provide targeted assistance to 10000 rural low-income families in the province in three years. The implementation scope of our city is: from 2023 to 2025, two counties (cities, districts) will be selected to jointly implement the project every year, and each county (city, district) will help at least 100 households in difficulty. This year, Fengxian County and Pizhou City are determined to implement it first. Project assistance target: Jiangsu low income families with household registration who have lived in rural areas for a long time, but have no fixed income source, have relatively large daily demand for electricity, and meet the long-term and sustainable characteristics of the project assistance and related conditions. There are two ways of funding: one is to install distributed photovoltaic equipment free of charge for low-income families whose own housing conditions meet the requirements of photovoltaic equipment installation, so as to solve the problem of household power consumption and obtain certain power generation income support; Second, the grass-roots charity workstations set up by local charity associations will build small photovoltaic power stations on the roofs of village (residential) public housing or other available roofs that meet the installation conditions, and the income increase will be used to provide continuous assistance to low-income families that meet the project relief conditions. Charitable support received by low-income families through the project is not included in family income when checking their family economic status. Implementation measures: First, the Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau and the Charity Federation will fully carry out investigation and research to determine the counties (cities, districts) that will jointly implement the project, and each relevant county (city, district) will formulate specific implementation plans in combination with local conditions; Second, after the county (city, district) civil affairs bureaus and charity associations determine the project implementation method, they carry out a thorough investigation to screen and determine the eligible assistance objects; Third, the photovoltaic equipment suppliers selected through public bidding should install the equipment in time according to the project implementation requirements, and the suppliers should be responsible for the later operation and maintenance; Fourth, the electric power company opened a green channel to timely connect the electric energy collected by the families or power stations involved in the project to the grid for power generation, so as to obtain long-term power generation income.
