CPECC to develop integrated wind-solar-hydrogen project

China Power Engineering Consulting Group Co., Ltd. (CPECC), a subsidiary of Energy China, plans to develop a wind-solar-hydrogen integrated project in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, through its subsidiary. With a total investment of over RMB 2 billion ($279 million), the project will include a 200 MW solar PV plant, a 300 MW wind farm, and a supporting hydrogen production station with a 50 MW/50 MWh electrochemical storage system. Once completed, it will have an annual water electrolysis hydrogen output capacity of 16,400 tons.

The project is currently undergoing a social stability risk assessment disclosure. Construction is scheduled to be completed within 18 months from its commencement, with a total project life cycle of 25 months.

Earlier this month, Gezhouba Group Transportation Investment (CGGC), another subsidiary of Energy China, commenced construction of a highway transport-energy integration project on the Hexiang Expressway in Anhui Province (see China Solar PV News Snippets).
