In the kitchen of the Kaishan Island militia post in Lianyungang, Zhang Yanbing, a militiaman, was greeted by the sizzling noise in the pan after turning on a brand-new induction cooker.
The kitchen of Kaishan Island militia post is only 8 square meters. For many years, Wang Jicai and Wang Shihua cooked meals with gas stove. Since 2018 when the militia guards took turns to be on guard on the tiny island, the kitchen was expanded and remodeled.
Zhang Yanbing, A militiaman
In the past
we used gas stoves
for boiling water and cooking
It was inconvenient to carry gas tanks
on and off the island every time
Moreover, there are hidden safety hazards
when gas tanks are placed inside the small kitchen
State Grid Lianyungang Power Supply Company replaced the original gas stove with a double-headed induction stove with a power of 7 kilowatts, added kitchen appliances such as boiling water cookers, rice cookers, and redesigned the kitchen cabinets.
