Group 1: Project Overview - The first two 1 million kilowatt coal power units of the Xinjiang Tianshan North Gobi large-scale wind and solar power base have successfully completed a 168-hour full-load trial run, indicating the commissioning of the first units of China's first "desert-gobi-wasteland" renewable energy export base [1]. - The total installed capacity of the base is 14.2 million kilowatts, comprising 4 million kilowatts of coal power, 7 million kilowatts of wind power, 3 million kilowatts of solar power, and 200,000 kilowatts of solar thermal power, with over 70% of the capacity coming from renewable sources [4]. Group 2: Strategic Importance - The Xinjiang region is identified as a key energy resource base in China, with abundant energy resources, making it a crucial hub for the "West-to-East Power Transmission" initiative [3]. - The base is expected to deliver approximately 36 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, which can meet nearly one-quarter of Chongqing's electricity demand by 2025, when the city's total electricity consumption is projected to reach 162 billion kilowatt-hours [3]. Group 3: Technological Innovations - The project has overcome significant technical challenges, including the global first use of a steel pipe X-column structure in a million-kilowatt unit cooling tower and the construction of the world's largest hyperbolic steel structure cooling tower [4]. - The base employs several cutting-edge technologies, such as the world's first 1000-megawatt high-efficiency ultra-supercritical boiler for Xinjiang's high-alkali coal and the world's first 200-megawatt large-scale photovoltaic medium-voltage direct current generation system [4]. Group 4: Future Plans - The base is scheduled to achieve full operational capacity by December 2025, excluding solar thermal power, further enhancing the efficient development and utilization of clean energy in Xinjiang [4].
