电力工业遗产的符号转译与城市对接路径——基于巴特西与东屿电厂的比较研究

Semiotic Translation and Urban Integration Pathways of Electric Power Industrial Heritage—A Comparative Study of Battersea and Dongyu Power Plants

摘要: 城市工业遗产是承载城市工业记忆的实体，其保护与再利用对延续城市文脉具有重要意义。本文以英国伦敦巴特西发电站与中国温州东屿电厂公园为对比案例，引入“场所记忆”与“文化符号”理论，从建筑符号、空间功能、文化叙事三个维度，剖析两者在工业遗产再利用中的异同。研究发现，成功的工业遗产再生源于对工业符号的创造性转译，使其承载新的文化语义与市场价值。基于对温州本地发展需求的深入分析，本文提出东屿电厂公园的定位应实现从“文化地标”到“城市资源节点”的深化。该策略旨在为温州及同类工业遗产的有机更新，探索一条突破单一文旅依赖、深度融入并服务城市产业创新系统的更新范式。

Abstract: Urban industrial heritage serves as a physical carrier of a city’s industrial memory, and its preservation and adaptive reuse are of great significance in sustaining the urban cultural context. This paper takes Battersea Power Station in London, UK, and Dongyu Power Plant Park in Wenzhou, China, as comparative cases. By introducing the theories of “place memory” and “cultural symbols,” it analyzes the similarities and differences between the two in industrial heritage reuse from three dimensions: architectural symbols, spatial functions, and cultural narratives. The study finds that successful regeneration of industrial heritage stems from the creative translation of industrial symbols, enabling them to carry new cultural meanings and market value. Based on an in-depth analysis of Wenzhou’s local development needs, this paper proposes that the positioning of Dongyu Power Plant Park should evolve from a “cultural landmark” to a “city resource node.” This strategy aims to explore an innovative renewal paradigm for Wenzhou and similar industrial heritage, moving beyond mere cultural and tourism dependence and deeply integrating into and serving the city’s industrial innovation system.
