The Fengning Pumped Storage Power Station, the world's largest facility of its kind, has commenced full operations with the commissioning of its final variable-speed unit on December 31.
The U.S. company posted on the Chinese social media service Weibo that the project would be the largest of its kind in China when completed. Utility-scale battery energy storage systems help electricity grids keep supply and demand in balance.
In terms of developments in China, 19 members of the National Power Safety Production Committee operated a total of 472 electrochemical storage stations as of the end of 2022, with a total stored energy of 14.1GWh, a year-on-year increase of 127%.
