CEEC Leads Integrated Energy Revolution: Ulanqab 148.8MW/297.6MWh Energy Storage System Sets Green Power Benchmark

Operational Impact‌

   1.​Accelerating Energy Transition
   After the project is put into operation, the new energy consumption rate in Ulanqab has increased to 95%, reducing annual curtailed wind power by over 120 million kilowatt-hours, equivalent to cutting carbon dioxide emissions by 100,000 tons. The Energy Storage System (ESS) effectively mitigates wind power fluctuations, raising the green power penetration rate in the industrial park to over 80%, supporting Inner Mongolia in achieving its “dual-carbon” goals.

   2.​Significant Economic Benefits
   Through peak-valley arbitrage and ancillary service revenues, the ESS generates an annual income of 32 million RMB. The project’s overall payback period is shortened to 7 years, with an internal rate of return (IRR) reaching 8.5%.

   3.​Industry Demonstration Effect
   As the world’s first 100-megawatt-level “source-grid-load-storage integration” industrial park project, its successful model has been replicated in international projects such as the Magat ESS expansion in the Philippines, showcasing CEEC’s global competitiveness in the ESS sector.

Project Context

   As a wind-rich region in Inner Mongolia, Ulanqab faces challenges in integrating large-scale renewable energy due to grid instability. CEEC leveraged its expertise in Energy Storage Systems (ESS) to secure the contract for the Three Gorges Energy Ulanqab Integrated Green Power Industrial Park Project. With 496MW wind capacity and 148.8MW/297.6MWh ESS, the project’s first phase includes 53.6MW wind turbines and 15MW/30MWh ESS, pioneering a “source-grid-load-storage” model to balance energy supply and demand.

 

Engineering Solution

   1. Technological Innovation: Grid-forming ESS and Intelligent Synergy
   CEEC utilizes its proprietary Grid-forming Energy Storage System (ESS) technology, which autonomously regulates voltage and frequency to act as a “stabilizing anchor” for the power grid. The project is equipped with lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, modular energy storage units, and an intelligent BMS system, enabling millisecond-level response to grid dispatch commands. Each wind turbine is paired with a containerized substation to boost voltage to 35kV for local grid connection. Integrated with a centralized monitoring platform, the system establishes an end-to-end smart network encompassing “wind-solar-storage, substations, and loads.”

   2. Engineering Execution: Turnkey EPC Delivery
   CEEC provides comprehensive EPC services from design to commissioning, adopting an innovative “phased construction + dynamic expansion” approach. The first phase uses a 15MW/30MWh ESS as a pilot to validate technical feasibility before rapidly scaling to a 100MW-level system. The substation design is compatible with future Phase II expansion, with reserved interfaces for ESS capacity upgrades to minimize investment risks.
