en.Wedoany.com Reported - The pumped storage power station project in Hezhou, Guangxi, has received approval, invested and constructed by Guangxi Energy Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Guangxi Investment Group. The project obtained approval from the Autonomous Region Development and Reform Commission on June 1, marking the end of preliminary work and entry into the substantive implementation phase.

Located in Butou Town, Babu District, Hezhou City, the project plans to install four 350 MW reversible pump-turbine units, with a total installed capacity of 1,400 MW. The designed annual on-grid electricity output is approximately 1.6 billion kWh, with a total dynamic investment of about 8.33 billion yuan, making it the largest single energy investment project in Hezhou City in recent years. The project is scheduled to commence construction within 2026 and has been included in the national "Pumped Storage Medium and Long-Term Development Plan (2021–2035)" as a key implementation project for the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, as well as in Guangxi's 2024–2028 optimization and adjustment plan for pumped storage project layout serving the power system.

Once completed and operational, the project will undertake key functions such as peak shaving, frequency regulation, phase modulation, energy storage, and emergency backup for the power grid. This will enhance Guangxi's capacity for new energy consumption and storage, drive the development of related industries including engineering construction, equipment manufacturing, and operation and maintenance, and support the green transformation of regional energy.
