Connected
to the national grid on December 25, 2019, Beijing Energy Holding’s 180MW solar
project is located at the Taiyangshan New Energy Base in Wuzhong City, Ningxia
Hui Autonomous Region, in north-west China. LONGi worked as EPC for this
project, also supplying 92MW of its Hi-MO 4 modules for the project’s Phase B.
Covering
an area of 5595 acres, the total investment for the project reached 720 million
yuan, the adoption of LONGi’s Hi-MO 4 high-power modules and a 3125KW centralized
inverter transformer making the plant a perfect example of the high efficiency
of the entire base, once again creating an impressive “LONGi Speed” within 77
days.
The
annual solar irradiation for the Taiyangshan base exceeds 6000 mega-joules per
square meter, with the region’s surface properties of desert and semi-desert
also providing significant advantages for the development of new energy. Compared
with a conventional polycrystalline solar plant, the LONGi monocrystalline Hi-MO
4 modules installed will save 0.21 yuan/watt in BOS costs. With the advantages
of excellent power generation performance and average annual attenuation of
less than 0.55%, the LCOE cost of the Hi-MO 4 modules has been significantly
reduced and their reliability in practical applications fully validated.
Covering
a total area of 300 square kilometers and with an investment of 30 billion
yuan, the Taiyangshan is China's leading "Double Hundred" base, integrating
installed capacity of 1 million Kw each of wind and solar power and providing an
excellent reference for the realization of a new ‘Wind-Solar Complementary’ energy
pattern.
During cooperation
on the project, LONGi established a comprehensive, strictly implemented quality
control system to ensure smooth construction and coordination of module capacity
from the production base, in order to overcome any potential difficulties and guarantee
timely delivery. LONGi’s outstanding performance in terms of on time delivery
and reliability was the subject of high praise by Beijing Energy Holding.
As one
of China’s leading new energy bases, the Taiyangshan base is significant in
promoting the large-scale and diversified development of new energy in China. The
successful application of LONGi high-efficiency monocrystalline modules in this
project has played a positive role in promoting both the efficient and
comprehensive development of new energy and the clean development of the local energy
structure.
