On May 31st, with the completion of the final group of photovoltaic modules, the Lanzhou New Area Urban Smart Energy Island Coordinated Coupling Project, undertaken by China Construction Second Bureau, successfully achieved grid-connected electricity generation, marking the entry of the "Photovoltaic + Agriculture" integration model in Lanzhou New Area into a new stage of large-scale practice. The Lanzhou New Area Urban Smart Energy Island Coordinated Coupling Project is located in the Duanjiachuan area of Qinchuan Town, Lanzhou New Area, with a total installed capacity of 200 megawatts. It includes the construction of one 110 kV substation and one electrochemical energy storage station. It is a key agricultural-photovoltaic complementary demonstration project in Gansu Province and also one of the largest single mountain photovoltaic projects constructed using flexible support system in China. After the project is put into operation, it is expected to generate approximately 350 million kilowatt hours of electricity annually, meeting the annual electricity demand of around 240,000 households, and equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 286,000 tons. This project is of great significance for improving the regional clean energy supply capacity and optimizing the grid structure.
