Recently, the first grid-forming ESS project in the northern Hebei power grid—the Beijing Hengyuan Zhangbei County 300 MW/600 MWh standalone ESS power station—was officially connected to the grid and began generating electricity. The grid-forming ESS capacity is 50 MW/100 MWh, using Sungrow’s grid-forming technology, adding an adjustable “dam” to conventional new energy plants to make the “green electricity river” more controllable and stable. This strongly enhances the reliability of power supply in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and sets a new milestone for high-quality transmission of new energy.
