Invest 1.2 billion! Huadian Datong energy storage project started in the national grid era] Huadian Datong energy storage project in the national grid era is invested and constructed by the Ningde era and the State Grid Comprehensive Energy Joint Venture, State Grid Times and Huadian Company, with a project scale of 300MW / 600MW hour. the total area is 25000 square meters, with a total planned investment of about 1.2 billion yuan.

According to the news released by the State Grid Comprehensive Energy Service Group, on the morning of July 10, the opening ceremony of the Huadian Datong energy storage project in the State Grid era was officially held in Datong Huadian No. 1 Thermal Power Plant in Shanxi Province.

It is reported that the Huadian Datong energy storage project in the State Grid era is invested and built by the Ningde Times and the State Grid Comprehensive Energy Joint Venture, the State Grid Times and the Huadian Company. The project scale is 300MW / 600MW per hour, covering a total area of 25000 square meters, with a total planned investment of about 1.2 billion yuan.

In addition, the project is built on the basis of the decommissioned Datong No. 1 Thermal Power Plant in Shanxi Province, which not only solves the problem of selecting the location of the new large-scale energy storage power station, but also makes full use of the land resources and the available equipment of the power plant to maximize the utilization of resources. The energy storage system of the project is connected with Electroweb, using the 220kV booster station and supporting lines already built in Datong No. 1 Thermal Power Plant, and connected to the 220kV Mitsui substation in operation. The project adopts the latest generation of all-outdoor prefabricated cabin design, and the first phase of the project is expected to be put into operation by the end of December this year.

After the project is put into operation, it can effectively solve the impact of 10 million kilowatt green power development on Electroweb in Datong, significantly solve the problem of new energy consumption, provide peak regulation, frequency modulation, demand response and other services for Electroweb operation, and realize Electroweb peak cutting and valley filling, alleviating peak power supply pressure, providing support for the safe and stable operation of Electroweb, and helping to build a new power system with new energy as the main body.

According to public data, on April 3, State Grid Comprehensive Energy Group, together with Ningde Times and two other investment enterprises, jointly contributed 400 million yuan to set up State Grid era (Fujian) Energy Storage Development Co., Ltd., registered in Ningde, Fujian Province. State Grid Integrated Energy Service Group and Ningde Times contributed 160 million yuan and held 40% of the shares respectively.
