Guarding the Gobi, Green Energy in Motion! Gansu Baiyin 200MW/800MWh Energy Storage Project Ships as Scheduled
The project is located in the core area of the Hexi Corridor Clean Energy Base. Featuring a 4-hour long-duration energy storage configuration, it has a total capacity of 200MW/800MWh and will deploy 160 Galaxy-1 units. Once completed, the project will effectively address regional grid regulation gaps, alleviate challenges such as difficulties in renewable energy consumption, high power fluctuations, and insufficient peak-shaving capacity, strongly support the efficient operation of the Gansu power transmission corridor, and help Baiyin establish itself as a demonstration hub for the energy storage industry in Gansu Province.
The Galaxy-1 units delivered for this project adopt a high-safety, liquid-cooled prefabricated cabin integrated solution, enabling convenient on-site installation and efficient, simplified maintenance. Designed to withstand the extreme environmental conditions of Northwest China, including large temperature fluctuations, strong sandstorms, and high solar irradiance, Galaxy-1 leverages precision liquid-cooling temperature control technology to effectively extend system cycle life. Combined with an intelligent energy management system, it enables real-time monitoring, intelligent dispatch, and fault warnings across the entire station, ensuring safe and stable operation throughout the power station’s full lifecycle.
As a regional demonstration-scale independent energy storage project, the power station will provide multiple functions, including day-night peak-valley shifting, fast frequency regulation across the grid, dynamic voltage support, and emergency backup power supply. Once operational, it will significantly enhance the flexibility, stability, and carrying capacity of the regional grid, fully unlock the potential of local wind and solar resources, substantially reduce wind and solar curtailment, and provide strong support for advancing China’s “Dual Carbon” goals.
With the project shipping as scheduled, 160 Galaxy-1 units will travel hundreds of kilometers to Baiyin, Gansu. JDEnergy will strictly uphold the highest standards for safety, quality, and schedule, while fully supporting installation, commissioning, and grid-connection acceptance. Together with all project partners, JDEnergy will work to bring the power station into full-capacity operation as soon as possible, transforming the wind and solar resources of Gansu into electricity for millions of homes and illuminating a greener future for the Gobi.
