Driving industrial decarbonization: JDEnergy delivers one of the largest user-side energy storage project in the steel industry

2026-02-13

The Jinxi New Energy 60MW/120MWh user-side energy storage project, located in Tangshan, Hebei Province, is the largest user-side distributed modular energy storage project in North China. It represents JDEnergy’s first user-side project exceeding 100MWh and sets a new record for the largest single-unit capacity of its kind.
The project adopts JDEnergy’s distributed modular smart energy storage system solution, featuring a total of 288 eBlock 418 arranged into 10 clusters, each consisting of 28 or 29 eBlock-418 and one integrated boosting transformer.
The energy storage system serves Jinxi Iron and Steel Group, a traditional steel enterprise with substantial power demand and high load intensity. The local grid has long faced challenges in peak shaving and load balancing. By integrating large-scale energy storage, the project significantly enhances grid flexibility and dispatch efficiency, ensuring stable power supply and continous industrial production.
Operating on a two-charge, two-discharge cycle per day, this project achieves an annual discharge of approximately 62.5 million kWh. Over a 10-year operational period, the cumulative discharge is expected to reach 625 million kWh, generating an estimated total revenue of RMB 330 million. Currently, the project is under trial operation, it will not only greatly reduce electricity costs and improve energy efficiency but also facilitate the consumption of renewable energy, effectively reducing carbon emissions.
As JDEnergy’s first collaboration with the steel industry, the Jinxi New Energy Project stands as a successful example of how energy storage can empower high-energy-consuming industries in their green transformation. It also represents a milestone in the industrial upgrading of Tangshan—a city renowned for its manufacturing heritage.
Looking ahead, JDEnergy will continue to leverage energy storage as a driving force to promote cross-industry integration and synergistic development between new energy storage technologies and traditional industries. Through these efforts, the company aims to inject new momentum into regional industrial upgrading and enterprise-level green transformation, contributing to the sustainable development of industrial cities.
