Chongqing’s integrated demonstration project for comprehensive energy balance in photovoltaic energy areas: 1 million kilowatt distributed photovoltaic power station

Thread Content

On July 13, China Energy Engineering Group Gezhouba Power Company and ** in Jiulongpo District, Chongqing, signed an investment intent agreement for a demonstration project aimed at achieving comprehensive energy balance in the photovoltaic energy sector. This move is part of the company’s efforts to implement the new energy security strategy of \"four revolutions and one cooperation,\" as well as to meet the \"30·60\" goals for carbon peak and carbon neutrality, as outlined in China Energy Engineering Group’s white paper on these goals. It holds great significance for promoting regional energy transformation and fostering green development. The Chongqing Photovoltaic Energy Regional Energy Consumption Comprehensive Balance Integrated Demonstration Project plans to build distributed photovoltaic power plants with a total capacity of around 1 million kilowatts. It also includes electrochemical energy storage systems with a capacity of about 400,000 kilowatts, as well as approximately 1,000 charging stations for new energy vehicles. The main construction activities include the installation of photovoltaic power generation systems in various facilities such as the roofs of industrial buildings, parking structures, open areas, and slopes within the designated area. Once completed, the project will meet the growing local electricity demand. During its operational life, it will be able to supply the power grid with approximately 590.17 million kWh of clean electricity per year. Compared to thermal power plants that generate the same amount of electricity, this means that 179,900 tons of standard coal can be saved each year, along with a reduction in smoke emissions of about 1.889 tons, sulfur oxides by 9.44 tons, and nitrogen oxides by 10.56 tons. This will help reduce environmental pollution from coal-fired power plants, stimulate the development of related industries, boost the local economy and employment, and have a positive impact and exemplary effect on Chongqing city as well as the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Zone.
