Recently, heavy news came from the energy infrastructure sector in Ningxia - the bidding process for the Huadian Niushou Shandong pumped storage project with a total investment of 11.2 billion yuan has officially started. As the core project of Huadian Group's layout of a new power system in the northwest region, this project is not only a key lever for Ningxia to promote the "14th Five Year Plan" energy transformation, but also injects green energy into the upgrading of regional transportation infrastructure through deep collaboration between energy storage and transportation, and builds an integrated transportation energy security system of "source network load storage".

Anchoring transportation energy demand and addressing regional development pain points

In recent years, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region has accelerated the pilot construction of a strong transportation country, with continuous acceleration of transportation infrastructure projects such as highway network encryption, upgrading of national and provincial trunk lines, and construction of new energy logistics parks. As a result, the demand for electricity in the transportation sector has grown rapidly. Especially in scenarios such as the popularization of new energy vehicle charging stations, the implementation of smart transportation systems, and cold chain power supply in logistics parks, higher requirements have been put forward for the stability and flexibility of power supply.

Multi dimensional collaboration empowers transportation, leading technology ensures efficiency

The Ningxia Huadian Niushou Shandong Pumped Storage Project has deeply integrated the demand for transportation upgrading in the planning and design stage, building a new model of "energy storage+transportation" coordinated development. In terms of power supply, after the project is put into operation, it will provide stable power support for charging stations in surrounding highway service areas, intelligent warehousing systems in logistics parks, and intelligent traffic signal control platforms through the "peak shaving and valley filling" function, effectively solving problems such as "difficult queuing" for new energy vehicle charging and "unstable" electricity consumption in logistics parks.

The bidding for the Huadian Niushou Shandong Pumped Storage Project in Ningxia has been launched, marking the substantial promotion stage of the coordinated development of transportation and energy storage in Ningxia. With the smooth implementation of the project, it will inject strong green momentum into regional transportation upgrading, provide solid support for energy transformation, and write a new chapter of high-quality development in the northwest inland region.Editor/Bian Wenjun
