Located in Kekeli Town, Wuchuan County, Hohhot, this 2.5MW/10MWh sodium-ion battery energy storage system represents a major technological leap as Inner Mongolia's first grid-scale sodium-ion storage project. As one of the region's flagship energy storage demonstration initiatives, this cutting-edge facility is set to revolutionize renewable energy integration and peak load management across Inner Mongolia's power grid.
• Stores excess clean energy from wind/solar farms
• Provides crucial grid balancing services
• Reduces reliance on fossil fuel peaking plants
• Withstands Inner Mongolia's extreme climate (-40°C to +40°C)
The system features advanced 230Ah sodium-ion battery cells with:
Feature | Sodium-Ion Battery | Lithium-Ion | Lead-Acid |
---|---|---|---|
Safety | Non-flammable | Fire risk | Stable |
Temperature Range | -40°C to 60°C | -20°C~50°C | -20°C~40°C |
Maintenance | Minimal | Moderate | High |
Sustainability | Abundant materials | Resource-constrained | Toxic |
This pioneering installation delivers:
With successful implementation, this technology is rapidly expanding into:
"Unlike lithium batteries that struggle in cold climates, our sodium-ion technology maintains excellent performance even at -40°C," explains the project's chief engineer. "This makes it perfect for renewable energy storage across Northern China and other cold regions globally."
This Inner Mongolia demonstration project proves sodium-ion batteries are ready for large-scale deployment. With:
Now is the time to adopt this game-changing storage solution!
