China’s state-owned power generation enterprise Datang Group has connected to the grid a 50 MW/100 MWh project in Qianjiang, Hubei Province, China.
The project represents the first phase of the Datang Hubei Sodium Ion New Energy Storage Power Station, which consists of 42 battery energy storage containers and 21 sets of boost converters. It uses 185 ampere-hour large-capacity sodium-ion batteries supplied by China’s HiNa Battery Technology and is equipped with a 110 kV transformer station.
Previously, the largest operational sodium-ion system was the Fulin 10 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project by China Southern Power Grid, located in Nanning, southwestern China. This power station, which marks the initial phase of a planned 100 MWh project, also incorporates HiNa Battery’s cells.
