In recent years, Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology has been increasingly adopted in power engineering construction projects across China. It plays a vital role in optimizing design, guiding construction, as well as facilitating operation and maintenance. Below are some notable application cases demonstrating BIM’s impact:
West Kowloon Substation
Application Area: Design Optimization
Project Phase: Design
Benefits: Collision detection and optimization of construction drawings
Southern Power Grid Transmission and Transformation
Application Area: 3D Design
Project Phase: Design and Operation
Benefits: 3D mapping, enhanced operation and maintenance
Huangdeng Hydropower Station
Application Area: 3D Design and Construction Guidance
Project Phase: Design and Construction
Benefits: Increased efficiency and reduced project cycles
Jingneng Gao’antun Digital Power Plant Project
Application Area: Construction Guidance, Operation and Maintenance Management
Project Phase: Construction and Operation
Benefits: Collision detection, cable conservation, digital handover, and visual management
Guangdong Datang Leizhou 3D Digital Power Plant
Application Area: Construction Guidance, Operation and Maintenance Management
Project Phase: Power Plant Construction and Operation
Benefits: Collision detection, cable conservation, digital handover, and visual management
Datang Jiangyan Smart Power Plant
Application Area: Operation and Maintenance Management
Project Phase: Power Plant Operation
Benefits: 3D visualization management
Zhoukou Gas Turbine Digital Power Plant
Application Area: Construction Guidance
Project Phase: Power Plant Infrastructure Construction
Benefits: Collision detection, cable conservation, and digital handover
These examples clearly demonstrate that BIM technology has made significant strides not only in building construction but also in power plant projects. With ongoing research and wider adoption, BIM is expected to expand its applications across even more fields in the future.
