80MW/160MWh! Tender for ESS of Ziyang Virtual Power Plant Green Demonstration Application Project in Sichuan

Published: Apr 28, 2025 13:26
Polaris Energy Storage Network learned that on April 27, the tender announcement for the first batch of energy storage equipment for the Green Demonstration Application Project of Virtual Power Plant in Ziyang City was released. The bid inviter for the project is Ziyang Ruiyan Environmental Protection Energy Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Ziyang Industrial Investment Group. The project is located in Ziyang City, Sichuan Province. In line with the work arrangements and requirements of the municipal party committee and government, the project will establish a virtual power plant platform (a comprehensive operation and management platform) and construct energy and power infrastructure such as PV ESS charging facilities across the city, including 5.99 MW of distributed PV, 80 MW/160 MWh of user-side ESS, and 402 charging guns. Through the Internet and Internet of Things technologies, various types of resources such as distributed PV, user-side ESS, and charging and battery swapping facilities within the city will be connected to the platform for unified aggregation and management, achieving "observability, measurability, and controllability" of resources. This will enable the resources to participate in the operation of the power system and transactions in the electricity market as a special power plant, ensuring the reliability of the large power grid operation, promoting the high-proportion consumption of renewable energy, enhancing the flexibility of electricity consumption, and reducing the energy costs for users. The total estimated investment for the project is 370 million yuan.
