en.Wedoany.com Reported - The intake/outlet gate of the lower reservoir project at the Wuhai Pumped Storage Power Station was successfully lowered on May 30, achieving the milestone ahead of schedule and laying the foundation for safe flood control during subsequent construction and the overall water storage target.

The intake/outlet gate measures 6.7 meters in width and 7.39 meters in height, with a total of 2 openings. The construction team strictly adhered to hydraulic metal structure installation standards, formulated a plan for gate slot installation in advance, and used multiple verification methods such as total stations to repeatedly measure the centerline of the gate slot, the elevation of the opening, and the verticality of the track throughout the process. After completing safety measures including high-altitude protection and lifting monitoring, the gate was lowered and precisely installed.

The Wuhai Pumped Storage Power Station has a planned installed capacity of 1.2 million kilowatts. Once operational, it can absorb up to approximately 2.677 billion kilowatt-hours of new energy electricity annually, reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 850,500 tons, and save approximately 358,600 tons of standard coal. This will facilitate the grid integration and consumption of large-scale wind and solar power in western Inner Mongolia, improve the utilization rate of new energy and the quality of power supply, and promote the green and low-carbon energy transition in Inner Mongolia.
