Sineng Electric has recently commissioned a notable 50MW/200MWh microgrid battery energy storage system (BESS) within the 6.1GW renewable energy base located in Xinjiang.
Spanning almost 1,000 square kilometers, this project integrates sophisticated functionalities pivotal for modern energy systems such as off-grid, grid-following, and grid-forming operational modes.
Sineng’s involvement in this extensive microgrid project underscores an increased focus on advancing energy storage to adapt to dynamic grid requirements. The deployment of 20 units of Sineng’s 2.5MW central PCS MV turnkey stations equipped with Virtual Synchronous Generators (VSG) technology marks a pivotal innovation. This technology allows for seamless mode-switching, incorporating voltage and frequency regulation, fault ride-through (FRT), and black start capabilities. These advancements are critical for ensuring operational resilience and efficiency in varying energy scenarios, including geographically isolated regions such as islands, remote industrial sites, and critical infrastructures.
With the project situated more than 80 kilometers away from the nearest power infrastructure, it tackles key issues such as restricted grid access and high operational costs that are typically addressed through less sustainable means like diesel power. This deployment not only promises a more reliable supply chain of energy but also frames a sustainable model by drastically reducing carbon footprints and operational expenses.
