The renewable energy replacement project for Zhongyan Jilantai Chlor-Alkali Chemical’s 108,000-kilowatt coal-fired power plant was connected to the grid. On December 26, 2025, the first renewable energy replacement project for a coal-fired power plant in Alxa League – that of Zhongyan Jilantai Chlor-Alkali Chemical’s 108,000-kilowatt coal-fired power plant – was successfully connected to the grid, marking a significant step forward in the use of clean energy in the industrial sector of our league. Thus, the installation of new energy sources across the league reached its annual conclusion, with a total capacity of 13.508 million kilowatts, of which 6.505 million kilowatts came from wind power and 7.003 million kilowatts from photovoltaic systems. The project is located in Wusitai Town, the High-Tech Zone of Alxa Left Banner, with a total investment amounting to 630 million yuan. The key highlight of this project is the establishment of a diversified clean energy supply system based on wind power as the main source, supplemented by photovoltaic power, with energy storage systems to support it. The project includes 75,000 kilowatts of wind power capacity and 33,000 kilowatts of photovoltaic capacity; simultaneously, a 220kV step-up substation will be built, along with various auxiliary facilities such as energy storage systems. The grid connection of this project will effectively promote the deep integration of the traditional chemical industry with renewable energy, providing solid support for achieving the \"dual carbon\" goals. As a practical example of the use of clean energy to replace traditional fossil fuels in the industrial sector of our league, this project not only serves to replace conventional coal-based power generation and support policies aimed at facilitating the transformation of energy-intensive industries, but it also helps Zhongyan Jilantai Chlor-alkali Chemical Industry to further advance its green technological upgrades and reduce its energy costs. It provides a replicable model for the transformation of energy-intensive enterprises in Alxa League, thereby accelerating the conversion of the region’s energy and resource advantages into advantages for high-quality development. Next, the Leng Energy Bureau will act in line with its designated responsibilities, focusing on the region’s goal of establishing a large-scale new energy base with a capacity of hundreds of millions of kilowatts as well as a demonstration site for self-use of renewable energy. By implementing policies aimed at enabling direct use of green electricity and promoting the green transformation of energy-intensive industries, the bureau will advance three key tasks: the implementation of relevant policies, oversight of projects, and improvement of services. Its aim is to build a safe, stable, clean, and efficient energy supply system, thereby facilitating the green and low-carbon development of energy-intensive enterprises in the region.
