The First! Construction Commences on Sany Silicon Energy's Darkhan Solar-Storage Power Station Project in Mongolia

Recently, on the Darkhan Prairie in Mongolia, the first solar-storage power station project in which Sany Silicon Energy is involved - the "Sany Silicon Energy Darkhan 5MW + 4MWh Solar-Storage Power Station in Mongolia" - officially kicked off. Representatives from the Mongolian DSEDN Electric Power Authority and the Sany Silicon Energy project team jointly witnessed this significant moment in China-Mongolia green energy cooperation, marking a new stage in technological collaboration between the two sides in the field of new energy.

This project is built upon China-Mongolia energy cooperation within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative and adopts China's independently developed integrated solar-storage technology. The system consists of a 5MW photovoltaic (PV) array and 4MWh energy storage equipment, featuring intelligent grid-connected and off-grid switching capabilities. It can not only transmit stable green electricity to the central Mongolian power grid but also provide emergency power supply during extreme weather conditions or power grid failures, effectively alleviating issues related to the weak power grid coverage and peak electricity demand in winter in the local area.

In response to Mongolia's climate characteristics of severe cold in winter and frequent sandstorms, the project employs a wind-sand-resistant and low-temperature-tolerant design to ensure the stable operation of the equipment in extreme environments as cold as -40°C. After the project is put into operation, it is expected to generate an average annual electricity output of 7.75 million kWh, reduce coal consumption by 233 tons annually, and cut carbon dioxide emissions by 642 tons annually, offering both ecological and economic benefits. Additionally, through technical training and localized operation and maintenance, the project will cultivate new energy professionals for Mongolia and promote the upgrading of its energy industry.

As the first demonstration project in Mongolia with the potential for green electricity export, it will help Mongolia transform its resource advantages into economic advantages. A representative from the Mongolian DSEDN Electric Power Authority stated that this project provides an important practical model for Mongolia's energy transition. The project leader from Sany Silicon Energy said, "The Darkhan project is not only an energy cooperation initiative but also a model for China's new energy technology to 'go global'."

Looking ahead, Sany Silicon Energy will take this project as a starting point, contribute China-Mongolia wisdom to global climate change response through technology sharing and industrial collaboration, and turn the sunlight on the prairie into clean energy driving sustainable development.
