China The “Tenth Five-Year Plan” explicitly lists the large-scale new energy base in Shagelang (desert, Gobi) as a major national energy project, and uses a systematic project of resource endowment + multi-energy complementarity + UHV delivery + photovoltaic desertification control + policy guarantee to turn the formerly barren land into an energy oasis integrating green electricity production, ecological restoration, and industrial development. This is not only a strategic choice for China to promote the “double carbon” goal and ensure energy security, but also a Chinese plan for the deep integration of western development and ecological civilization construction. OLINK TECHNOLOGY relies on the core technology of optical storage and charging off-grid connection, full spectrum charging equipment and intelligent management system, deeply embedded in the whole chain of Shagelang base construction, empowers the development of green energy in the west with technological innovation, and contributes core strength to the desert energy base.
Technology and operation and maintenance: extreme environmental adaptation, intelligent and efficient escort base operation
The extreme environment of high temperature, wind and sand, and drought in the Shago desert area places strict requirements on new energy equipment and operation and maintenance systems. With all-liquid-cooled charging piles and energy storage technology as the core, OLINK creates technical solutions suitable for desert scenes to achieve stable operation and efficient operation and maintenance of equipment.
At the level of equipment upgrade, OLINK collaborates with the industry’s high-efficiency components, using high-conversion-efficiency photovoltaic products such as BC batteries (efficiency 27.8%), with a 3-meter high sand-proof bracket, which not only resists wind and sand erosion, but also reserves sufficient space for ecological planting under the board; the core charging and energy storage equipment has the characteristics of wind and sand resistance, high temperature resistance, salt and alkali resistance, and is suitable for the working environment with large temperature difference between day and night in Shage Desolate and frequent wind and sand invasion. Relying on the AC-DC and DC-DC dual technology routes, the photovoltaic DC charging pile is developed to reduce power conversion losses and improve the local utilization efficiency of green power.
At the level of intelligent operation and maintenance, OLINK has built a CMS charging management system + APP operation management platform, linking drone inspection, big data monitoring, and AI intelligent dispatching technologies to realize unmanned management of optical storage and charging stations. By actively supporting the power grid through network-based energy storage technology, it can effectively solve the problem of weak power grids at the Shagelang transmission end, improve the new energy consumption rate by more than 20%, and convert unstable wind and solar power into stable and reliable green power to ensure the continuous and efficient output of the base.
The whole process is empowered: from 0 to 1 to build Shagelang new energy base
The construction of Shagelang New Energy Base is a systematic project from planning to operation and maintenance. With its technology integration and scene landing capabilities, OLINK is deeply involved in the whole cycle of base construction to help the project land efficiently.
Site selection and planning: OLINK relies on energy big data technology to jointly delineate eco-friendly photovoltaic construction zones, participate in the preparation of integrated development plans for wind, fire and storage, and cooperate with the completion of environmental assessment, forest assessment, land use approval and other preliminary work to ensure that the project planning conforms to national policies and ecological requirements.
Ecological first: Practice the concept of “photovoltaic sand control”, cooperate with the base to build sand barriers, grass squares and other sand fixing facilities, and simultaneously promote the sowing of sand plants and the installation of photovoltaic brackets and components, so as to achieve “power generation on the board and sand control under the board” and protect the desert ecological bottom line.
Power supply construction: support the construction of photovoltaic and wind power arrays with integrated photovoltaic storage and charging technology, support energy storage systems, booster stations, and collector lines, build a stable generation, storage, and transmission system, and make up for the intermittent shortcomings of new energy.
Delivery channel: Adapt to the construction needs of UHV converter stations and DC lines, optimize power conversion and transmission efficiency, and help the western green power to be transported thousands of miles to the central and eastern load centers through UHV channels, so as to achieve the optimal allocation of energy resources nationwide.
Operation and maintenance and integration: The unmanned intelligent operation and maintenance system guarantees the long-term stable operation of the base, continues to promote the ecological restoration under the board, and expands the integrated industries such as “photovoltaic + planting” and “photovoltaic + tourism”, so that energy development and ecological industries can develop synergistically.
Economy and environmental protection: two-wheel drive releases the comprehensive value of Shagelang
Taking the world’s largest Shagelang new energy base as an example, the total installed capacity of the project is 16 million kilowatts, the total investment is 98.80 billion yuan, and the wind and fire storage integration + photovoltaic sand control + UHV delivery mode is adopted. The annual power generation is about 40 billion degrees, and the carbon dioxide emission reduction is about 320 million tons. The sand control area reaches 3 million mu, and the vegetation coverage rate is greatly improved to achieve a win-win situation between ecology and economy.
OLINK relies on the advantages of China’s advanced energy storage supply chain to reduce the cost of base construction and operation and maintenance, and promote the large-scale and affordable development of green power. On the one hand, through efficient charging equipment and intelligent management system, improve energy utilization efficiency, drive the development of western equipment manufacturing, new energy operation and maintenance and other industries, and transform desert resources into economic wealth; on the other hand, use technology to help ecological sand control, reduce wind and sand hazards, restore desert ecology, and build a “photovoltaic Great Wall” that protects the Three North Regions, highlighting the environmental value of green development.
Core value: technology changes the environment and practices green electricity oasis
Shagelang to become a new energy base is essentially an innovative practice of deep integration of energy development and ecological governance. The core value is reflected in four dimensions: energy level, building a stable green power supply system, consolidating the foundation of a new power system, and supporting the implementation of the national “double carbon” strategy; ecological level, controlling desertification and fixing soil, restoring deserts, and realizing the coordinated progress of energy development and ecological protection; economic level, activating the resource advantages of the west, driving the upstream and downstream development of the industrial chain, and cultivating a new growth pole of the regional economy; people’s livelihood level, relying on under-board planting, industrial employment and other models, to promote the income of local residents and help the rural revitalization of the west.
OLINK TECHNOLOGY has always carried the concept of “technology changes the environment” throughout the entire development life cycle of the enterprise, using light storage and charging core technologies, full-spectrum equipment and intelligent management platforms to deeply serve the development of the western region and the construction of Shagelang new energy base. In the future, OLINK will continue to deepen new energy technology innovation, cooperate with industrial partners to build Shagelang energy oasis, and make the desert bloom green kinetic energy, making outstanding contributions to China’s energy transformation, ecological protection and regional coordinated development.
