As we all know, hydropower is a kind of pollution-free, renewable and important clean energy. Vigorously developing the field of hydropower is conducive to easing the energy tension of countries, and hydropower is also of great significance to China. Due to the rapid economic development over the years, China has become a large energy consumer, and the dependence on energy imports has been increasing. Therefore, it is of great significance to vigorously build hydropower stations to alleviate the energy pressure in China.
Since the reform and opening up, China has attached great importance to the construction of hydropower stations and carried out construction throughout the country, especially the pumped storage power stations. Now the pumped storage power stations gradually replace the traditional thermal power stations, mainly because of three reasons. First, the current social electricity consumption is large, the power supply is tight, and the supply exceeds the demand. Second, compared with traditional coal power stations, pumped storage power stations can reduce the burning of raw coal and improve the air and environment. Third, pumped storage power stations can drive the local economic development and bring a lot of income to the local area.
At present, there is no pumped storage power station in Chongqing power grid, so it is unable to meet the growing peak shaving demand of the power grid to a certain extent. In order to provide sufficient power, Chongqing has also started to build pumped storage power stations. What I want to tell you today is that the hydropower project in Chongqing is on fire! It costs nearly 7.1 billion yuan and is expected to be completed in 2022. Since the construction of Chongqing Panlong Storage Power Station, it will play an important role as an important backbone power supply in the local power grid!
Since the construction of Panlong Pumped Storage Power Station, it has attracted much attention from all walks of life. It was originally the first pumped storage power station in Southwest China, the relay power supply for the large-scale “West East Power Transmission” main channel implemented in China, and an important guarantee for the stable operation of the local power system. Therefore, people place high hopes on Panlong Pumped Storage Power Station, and all parties hope that the station can be put into operation as soon as possible.
Pumped storage power stations have many advantages. They can not only disperse power when the power is sufficient, but also increase power for the grid when the power is insufficient. The principle is to use the height difference between upper and lower reservoirs to generate power. If the power grid is sufficient, the power station will pump water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir. When the power is insufficient, it will release water to generate power through kinetic energy. This is a recyclable and pollution-free power generation mode. Its advantages are not only rapid and sensitive, but also many functions, such as peak shaving, valley filling and emergency standby.
It is understood that the total investment of Chongqing Panlong Pumped Storage Power Station is nearly 7.1 billion yuan, the total installed capacity is 1.2 million kilowatts, the designed annual pumping power is 2.7 billion kilowatt hours, and the annual power generation is 2 billion kilowatt hours. At present, the project is proceeding in an orderly manner, with a total construction period of 78 months. It is expected to be completed by the end of 2020, and all four units of the power station will be connected to the grid for power generation.
As for the construction of Chongqing hydropower station, people pay close attention to it and give it a favorable look. This time, Chongqing hydropower station project is on fire. As another pumped storage power station in China, it is worth being optimistic. After the completion of Panlong Pumped Storage Power Station, it can add jobs to the local area and develop it into a tourist attraction, which is a good thing for the development of Chongqing, a popular online city.
After the construction is put into operation, this hydropower station will be an important backbone power supply of Chongqing’s future power grid, and will take on many tasks. At the same time, it can also effectively improve the quality of power supply, further optimize the power supply structure in Chongqing, improve the operation level of the power grid, and make the power operation more stable. The fire of Chongqing Hydropower Station has attracted the attention of the masses at home and abroad, which is also a reflection of China’s comprehensive strength.
