On September 23, 2024, it marked another milestone for State Grid Xinyuan Jiangsu Jurong Pumped Storage Power Station. Its Unit 1 successfully completed a rigorous 15 day assessment and trial operation, officially entering a new stage of production and power generation. This power station, located in the heart of Jiangsu Province, not only brings the two major cities of Nanjing and Zhenjiang closer together, but also injects new vitality into the East China Power Grid with its strong energy supply capacity.

Jurong Power Station is a modern engineering miracle that integrates high technology and green energy. It is equipped with six 225000 kW reversible water pump turbine generators, with a total installed capacity of 1.35 million kW. It is directly connected to the power grid through a 500 kV power line and has become an important pillar of regional power dispatch. One of its highlights is the Upper Reservoir Dam, which is known as the crown of the "Three Greats" and reaches a height of 182.3 meters. It is not only a new height in the global pumped storage field, but also the pinnacle of asphalt concrete face rockfill dam technology. The scale of its reservoir filling project is unprecedented.

During the construction process, the Jurong Power Station team demonstrated extraordinary wisdom and determination in the face of complex and ever-changing geological conditions such as karst, faults, and easily disintegrating diorite. By adopting advanced detection technologies such as borehole television imaging and seismic CT, precise positioning and elimination of underground hazards have been achieved. At the same time, innovative use of various support measures, such as prestressed anchor cables, anchor rods, etc., weaves an indestructible safety net inside the mountain, ensuring the stability and safety of the underground factory building.

Jurong Power Station has also demonstrated extremely high efficiency and environmental awareness in resource utilization. Almost all of the filling materials for the upper reservoir come from the excavation of the reservoir bank. Through meticulous material source management and identification, a high excavation utilization rate of up to 99% has been achieved, which not only saves costs but also protects the surrounding environment, setting an example for the development of green energy.
