Grid-side independent energy storage project

This project marks the first 220kV voltage level new energy storage power station in Foshan Power Grid, with a construction scale of 208MW/416MWh. 9 sets of Zhiguang Electric's independently developed and technically leading High-Voltage Cascade Direct-Mounted Energy Storage Systems will be deployed, configured with full liquid-cooling technology, and the whole energy storage power station adopts Zhiguang Electric's “5S” full-stack technology to realize the whole life cycle management, monitoring and control of the energy storage system.After the project is completed and put into operation, it will provide auxiliary services such as frequency regulation and peak shifting for the power grid, effectively enhance the power supply reliability of the Foshan regional power system, promote new energy consumption, and play an important role in promoting the development of Guangdong's new electric power system, and the project is expected to be completed and put into operation in June 2025.
