Investigation and Analysis of Energy Consumption in Agriculture and Animal Husbandry in Some Areas of Xizang

Abstract

This study takes the agricultural and pastoral industries in Nyingchi, Lhasa, and Xigaze in the Xizang Autonomous Region as the research subjects. Through field research, questionnaire surveys, and data analysis, it systematically reviews the current energy consumption status of these industries in the three regions since 2025. The study finds that the energy structure of the agricultural and pastoral industries in the three regions is still dominated by traditional biomass energy and fossil energy, with a low proportion of clean energy; energy utilization efficiency is generally low, and there are issues such as outdated equipment and backward technology; power supply stability is insufficient, especially in remote pastoral areas; and energy costs account for an excessively high proportion of production costs, affecting the income levels of farmers and herdsmen. In response to the problems identified in the research, this article proposes optimization suggestions from four aspects: policy support, technology promotion, infrastructure construction, and talent cultivation. Firstly, increase the support for clean energy policies and implement special promotion plans for solar and wind energy; Secondly, promote efficient energy-saving equipment and establish an energy-saving technology service system for agriculture and animal husbandry; The third is to improve the infrastructure of the power grid and enhance the reliability of power supply in remote areas; The fourth is to strengthen energy technology training and enhance the energy-saving awareness of farmers and herdsmen. The research results can provide decision-making reference for the transformation of energy utilization and sustainable development of Xizang's agriculture and animal husbandry industry.
