en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, the 200MW/400MWh independent energy storage project in Qinshui County, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province, China, officially commenced construction.
The project is invested and operated by Zichuang Guangke (Shenzhen) Technology Group Co., Ltd. The project design and construction strictly adhere to a 20-year operational standard, with a total static investment of 408 million yuan (approximately 0.408 billion yuan), covering an area of about 40 mu.
The project is located in Xinglin Village, Duanshi Town, Qinshui County, Jincheng City, boasting a superior geographical location, convenient transportation, and abundant surrounding wind and solar resources, facilitating connection to the regional power grid and reducing transmission losses.
The project scale is 200MW/400MWh, and the construction content includes the energy storage yard, a 220kV booster station, and a full set of supporting systems. The overall construction strictly follows high-standard requirements, aligning with the project's benchmark positioning, laying a solid foundation for subsequent stable operation and efficient utilization of energy storage capabilities.
Project ecosystem partners are all sourced from industry-leading enterprises. The core energy storage equipment is planned to use integrated complete sets from CATL. The EPC general contracting partner has been confirmed as China Construction Second Engineering Bureau Co., Ltd. All categories of project equipment are selected from top-tier domestic quality brands, striving for high-standard construction and committed to building a benchmark-level, high-quality energy storage power station in China.
As a core peak-shaving energy storage facility for Shanxi's new power system, the project can enhance grid flexibility and power supply security, significantly reduce the peak output pressure on thermal power, and simultaneously solve the pain point of new energy consumption. Over 20 years, it will cumulatively absorb over 23 billion kWh of curtailed wind and solar power, supporting the construction of large-scale wind and solar bases in Shanxi, promoting the transformation of the energy structure from "coal-dominated" to "multi-wheel drive," and practicing the concept of green and low-carbon development.
The project's green value is prominent. Over its full 20-year lifecycle, it will achieve a net reduction of 1.756 million tons of CO₂, with the carbon reduction benefit being more than seven times its own emissions. Simultaneously, it will save a total of approximately 660,000 tons of standard coal, equivalent to planting 17.56 million mature carbon-sequestering trees. Furthermore, the construction and operation phases can provide over 200 stable jobs and contribute over ten million yuan in stable tax revenue annually, effectively driving local employment, increasing income, and benefiting people's livelihoods.
The project's returns are stable and considerable. With a total static investment of 408 million yuan, professional calculations estimate a static payback period of 6.28 years, indicating stable profitability and good investment returns. After commissioning, the average annual market-based traded electricity volume will be approximately 70 million kWh, with a cumulative traded volume of 1.5 billion kWh over the project's full lifecycle. The average annual operating revenue is expected to be about 65 million yuan, with cumulative operating revenue over the full lifecycle reaching 1.3 billion yuan, forming a sustainable profit loop based on diversified revenue models. Simultaneously, relying on strong support from the local government, core technical backing from CATL, and guarantees from other leading institutions, government-enterprise synergy and strong alliances solidify the foundation for the project's steady progress.
