2GWh!国内单体容量最大独立新型储能电站建成投运

Core Viewpoint - The article highlights the successful commissioning of the 500MW/2000MWh independent energy storage station in Tongliao, Inner Mongolia, which is the largest single-capacity energy storage station in China, built by Tongliao Conch New Energy Co., Ltd. using CATL's 5MWh storage system [2][4]. Group 1: Project Overview - The Tongliao energy storage station commenced construction on June 28 and was completed and operational by November 28, one month ahead of schedule [4]. - The project aims to alleviate the pressure of large-scale renewable energy consumption in the surrounding areas, enhancing the stability of the regional power system and increasing the utilization of clean energy [4]. Group 2: Technology and Reliability - The energy storage station utilizes 100 sets of 5MW/20MWh storage units, totaling nearly 2 million battery cells, featuring CATL's 5MWh containerized storage system known for its high safety, reliability, and low degradation [4][5]. - CATL's battery cells have demonstrated a 3%-5% improvement in total lifecycle discharge compared to similar products, alongside lower maintenance costs, which significantly reduces operational expenses for the energy station [5]. Group 3: Market Impact and Future Prospects - After connecting to the grid, the energy storage station is expected to participate in the eastern Inner Mongolia electricity market, achieving full charge and discharge cycles daily, with an annual throughput exceeding 600 million kWh [5]. - The integration of CATL's technology is projected to enhance the operational efficiency and return on investment for the Tongliao energy storage station [5].
