What is a smart mine? What is the future trend?

"Notice on the Pilot construction of intelligent Coal mines and intelligent fully mechanized mining faces in Shanxi Province" : requires all construction pilots to take active measures, increase efforts to build smart coal mines and intelligent fully mechanized mining faces as soon as possible, and demonstrate the improvement of the overall quality and efficiency of the coal industry chain.

(2) Henan

In 2019, Henan fully launched the intelligent construction of coal mines to promote the transformation and upgrading of the coal industry as the main line, apply advanced equipment and technology, accelerate the technological change of coal production, comprehensively improve the intelligent level of coal mines, achieve the production process less humanized and unmanned, and strive to achieve the basic intelligent transformation of 600,000-ton and above coal mines by the end of 2021. Mechanized production has been fully realized in coal mines below 600,000 tons.

(3) Shandong

In order to accelerate the high-quality development of the coal industry in Shandong Province and help the province to convert old and new kinetic energy, the Shandong Provincial government has issued the "Implementation Plan of the Major Project to convert New and old kinetic Energy in Shandong Province" and the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the transformation and Upgrading of the Coal Industry in Shandong Province", proposing that "by 2022, coal mining will basically realize automation, information and intelligence. Strive to achieve more than 1/3 of the working face intelligent unmanned mining, intelligent mining output proportion of more than 40%, the production management system basically realize intelligent remote visual control, the number of workers in high-risk positions in the underground to reduce by 30%, accelerate the construction of a number of intelligent, safe and efficient modern mines."

A number of coal mines in Shandong have achieved results in intelligent construction and transformation; The rise of 5G commercial applications has helped the intelligent development of Shandong's coal industry. In the second half of 2018, Yankuang Group carried out research and exploration on the application of 5G technology in mining industry in advance. After several rounds of consultations with 5G operating technology manufacturers such as China Unicom and ZTE, Yankuang Group conducted experimental deployment of 5G base stations in Yankuang Headquarters, Dongtan Coal Preparation Plant and Guohong Chemical Company respectively to achieve 5G network coverage in key areas. Actively promote the development and design of 5G intelligent transmission platform for mining, drone video inspection of Dongtan Coal preparation Plant, AR remote maintenance of Guohong Chemical and VR safety education and other scene research and testing work.

(4) Guizhou

On May 20, 2019, China Coal Science signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Guizhou Provincial Energy Bureau. According to the cooperation agreement, the two sides will further strengthen cooperation in the coal mine intelligent equipment industry, accelerate the process of promoting the "two transformation" of coal mines in Guizhou province, strengthen scientific and technological cooperation, and conduct research in smart mines and coal big data centers.

In October 2019, the Office of the Leading Group of Guizhou Coal Industry to eliminate backward production capacity and Accelerate Transformation and Upgrading issued the "In-depth Promotion of Guizhou Coal Mine Intelligent and Mechanized Upgrading and Transformation Plan (2019-2020)" (Guizhou Coal Transformation and Upgrading Office (2019) No. 54). We will further promote the intelligent and mechanized upgrading of coal mines in Guizhou Province. The plan proposes to comprehensively improve the safety production guarantee ability of coal mines and effectively improve the production efficiency of coal mines. By the end of 2020, the mechanization rate of coal mining in the province's production coal mines will reach 96%, the implementation coverage rate of mechanization transformation will reach 100%, and the coverage rate of intelligent and information service management and monitoring of auxiliary systems will reach 100%.
