On the evening of April 24, 2022, Jiangsu Linyang Energy Co., Ltd. issued an announcement stating that the Anhui Provincial Energy Administration issued the "Notice of Anhui Provincial Energy Administration on Printing and Distributing the List of Pilot Projects for Integration of Power Sources, Networks, Loads and Storage and Multi-Energy Complementation in Anhui Province". "Wan Energy Comprehensive [2022] No. 30. According to the notice, the wind-solar-storage integration pilot project in Wuhe County, Bengbu City invested by Linyang Energy was included in this integration pilot project.

According to reports, the Wuhe project plans to have a wind power photovoltaic installed capacity of 2 million kilowatts and a supporting energy storage scale of 540MW/1.08GWh. From 2022 to 2024, the planned wind power photovoltaic installed capacity is 1.2 million kilowatts, and the supporting energy storage scale is 324MW/648MWh. Among them, in 2022, the construction scale of wind power photovoltaic power generation is 400,000 kilowatts, and the supporting energy storage capacity is 108MW/216MWh.

It is reported that the Linyang Energy Bengbu Wuhe Wind-Solar-Storage Integration Base Project has been successfully approved as an Anhui Province source-grid-load-storage integration indicator, which is of great strategic significance to the company's development and reflects the company's strength in the field of "new energy + energy storage". The comprehensive strength is conducive to further enhancing and consolidating the company's market competitiveness. As of the end of the third quarter of 2021, the company owns more than 1.6GW of photovoltaic power plants of different types, reserves more than 6GW photovoltaic projects and 3GWh energy storage projects, and operates and maintains more than 3.5GW of photovoltaic projects.

Relying on the difference in the output characteristics of wind power and photovoltaic power generation, the Wuhe County wind-solar-storage integration pilot project realizes multi-energy complementarity, supplemented by the flexible adjustment capability of large-scale electrochemical energy storage power stations, which can significantly increase the proportion of new energy consumption and reduce the impact on the power grid. The resulting peak regulation and scheduling pressure. The project configures an electrochemical energy storage system with a total scale of 540MW/1.08GWh in the mode of centralized shared energy storage, and integrates and optimizes the integration and optimization of "wind, solar and storage" to create a grid-friendly renewable energy power generation integration Demonstration projects to make useful explorations for building a new power system with new energy as the main body. Linyang Energy will continue to focus on the strategic goal of becoming a world-class product and operation service provider in the fields of smart grid, new energy and energy storage, implement the country's major strategic decisions on carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, and accelerate the promotion of new energy and energy storage business development, to help the efficient use of social resources and green and low-carbon development.

It is understood that in July 2021, Linyang Energy signed a cooperation agreement with the Wuhe County People's Government, and plans to invest in the construction of 1.5GW photovoltaic projects, 0.5GW wind power projects and energy storage projects in Tianjing Lake and surrounding areas in Wuhe County, Bengbu. The total investment of the project is nearly 10.8 billion yuan. Editor/He Yuting
