On July 24, 2021, the 8th National Sand and Stone Aggregate Industry Science and Technology Conference (hereinafter referred to as the "Sand and Stone Conference") with the theme of "green innovation and low-carbon development" was born in the concept of "two mountains", General Secretary Xi Jinping It was grandly opened in Huzhou, Zhejiang. The meeting invited Chinese state ministries and commissions, provincial and municipal government leaders and related enterprises to attend the meeting. Wang Min, former deputy minister of the Ministry of Land and Resources, pointed out in his speech that the sand and gravel conference is of great significance to promoting the accelerated transformation, upgrading and high-quality development of the entire industry.

Hu Youyi, President of China Sand and Gravel Association, gave a keynote report entitled "Green Innovation, Low-Carbon Development, Compose a New Chapter of High-quality Development of Sand and Gravel Industry". Entering the new development stage of the "14th Five-Year Plan", new development requirements have been put forward for the sand and gravel industry: implementing new development concepts, promoting new scientific and technological progress, and building a new development pattern. Shanghai Qiyuanxin Power Technology Co., Ltd. (“Qiyuanxin Power”) and Shanghai Boonray Intelligent Technology (referred to as “Boonray Technology”) made a report entitled “Intelligent Solutions for Green Mines” in response to this development requirement. .

Qiyuanxin Power is a comprehensive smart energy service provider under the State Power Investment Corporation focusing on the field of "green electric transportation". Boonray Technology is a global leader in ubiquitous robotics technology, dedicated to the research and development and application of artificial intelligence technologies such as unmanned driving, and to create enterprise-level intelligent operation solutions. In the mining area, the intelligent solutions for open-pit mines created by Boonray Technology include multiple modules such as unmanned driving system, remote control system, V2X system and scraper monitoring and dispatching system. At present, Boonray Technology has launched commercial operations in several open-pit mines and obtained continuous income. At the same time, Boonray Technology has established strategic cooperation with a number of mining companies and OEMs. As an ecological partner of SPIC, they are committed to jointly building "smart mines" and "green mines".

The report shows that Kaiyuan Core Power and Boonray Technology combine unmanned driving technology, artificial intelligence and new energy to jointly create a comprehensive solution for low-carbon, green, intelligent and unmanned mine production and operation. The solution integrates Boonray's complete intelligent application system for mines (including unmanned mining trucks, 5G-based remote driving, remote-controlled mine intelligent shovel, transport, and platoon operations, and an intelligent shovel dispatch platform) and an intelligent shovel dispatch platform based on State Grid Corporation of China. The new energy mining card charging and replacing scheme. While ensuring unmanned intelligent production in mines, it will also greatly reduce carbon emissions and help mine production achieve the goal of green mines.

Cai Meifeng, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, pointed out in his speech that while the sand and gravel industry has achieved great development in recent years, it is also facing prominent problems such as eliminating outdated production capacity, unreasonable industrial structure, and low level of green development. To solve these problems, we still have to rely on technological innovation. Peng Qiming, Secretary of the Party Committee and President of the China Mining Federation, also pointed out in his speech that technological innovation should contribute to safe development, green development, and quality and efficiency improvement. The "Intelligent Solution for Green Mines" jointly created by Kaiyuan Core Power and Boonray Technology is in response to the requirements of national policies and the development of sand and gravel aggregates and mines. It realizes intelligence through continuous technological innovation and reduces costs for the industry. Increase efficiency, create good economic benefits, change the image of "dirty, messy" in the traditional mining industry, make miners change from blue-collar to white-collar workers, and build a new image of modern mines in the new era.
