Polaris Energy Storage Network learned that on April 16, the list of winning candidates for the energy storage system equipment procurement of the 1.8 million kW wind and solar power hydrogen storage integrated project in Qitai County, State Development and Investment Corporation, was announced.
The first winning candidate is Hefei Gotion High-tech Power Energy Co., Ltd., with a bid price of 459.9 million yuan, equivalent to a unit price of 0.46 yuan/Wh.
The second winning candidate is CRRC Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Research Institute Co., Ltd., with a bid price of 422.8 million yuan, equivalent to a unit price of 0.423 yuan/Wh.
The third winning candidate is Beijing HyperStrong Technology Co., Ltd., with a bid price of 477.7 million yuan, equivalent to a unit price of 0.478 yuan/Wh.
According to the tender announcement, the bid inviter for this project is Changji State Development and Investment Qixin Energy Co., Ltd., and the project construction site is located in Qitai County, Changji Prefecture. The procurement capacity of the energy storage equipment for this project is 250MW/1000MWh. The procurement includes but is not limited to: battery cabins (including batteries, battery management systems (BMS), fire extinguishing systems, thermal management systems (including temperature and humidity control), cloud monitoring and early warning systems, power cables and communication cables within the container, and other related supporting facilities), power cables and communication cables between the container and the PCS, converter and step-up systems (Power Conversion System (PCS), box transformers, and related supporting facilities), energy management systems (EMS), self-powered systems for energy storage, connection cables between the battery cabin and the PCS (single-core, fire-resistant copper cables), and the selection, design, manufacturing, provision of drawings and documents, ex-factory testing, supply, packaging, shipping, on-site delivery, on-site installation guidance, on-site debugging, assistance in acceptance, responsibility for grid connection tests up to the full capacity stage, and a two-year warranty period service (the overall equipment quality assurance period is 24 months from the date of acceptance, with a 5-year warranty for the batteries), as well as the provision of special tools and instruments, and necessary spare parts packages.
The DC energy storage system design plan should meet the total capacity of 250MW/1000MWh for this project. Bidders may propose a more suitable configuration plan based on their product characteristics, with a grid connection voltage level of 35kV.
Bidders are required to have at least two energy storage system integration projects (including battery prefabricated cabins, PCS, and EMS) with a single capacity of no less than 200MWh (LFP battery) since January 2022, and at the same time, have a cumulative capacity of no less than 2GWh of energy storage system supply contracts (including at least battery cabins, and using battery cells of 300Ah or above).
