CLP China has launched two new renewable energy projects as part of its plan to increase its clean energy capacity. The 150-megawatt (MW) Bobai Wind Farm in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is the company’s largest wind power project in the Mainland. CLP has also started operations at the 90 MW Yixing Phase I Solar Power Station in Jiangsu, marking its fifth renewable energy project in the province.
In addition to these operational projects, CLP has started work on new renewable energy facilities. Groundbreaking ceremonies have taken place for Juancheng Wind Farm in Shandong, Hepu Solar Power Station in Guangxi, and Yixing Phase II Solar Power Station in Jiangsu. The 100 MW Sandu Phase II Wind Farm in Guizhou has also connected its first 6.25 MW wind turbine to the grid. The full capacity of 199 MW is expected to be reached by the third quarter of 2025.
CLP is also expanding battery storage projects. Its first standalone battery energy storage system in Guanxian, Shandong, is expected to be completed by mid-2024. This system will store excess energy from the Guanxian Wind Farm, which is under development.
Other renewable energy projects are also being introduced in different regions of China. A 50 MW floating solar project is under construction on a reservoir in Anhui Province. A 30 MW rooftop solar system is being installed at an industrial facility in Guangdong. A 20 MW biomass energy plant in Henan is converting agricultural waste into electricity.
Smaller projects are also in progress. A 10 MW hybrid wind and solar system is being tested in Inner Mongolia. A 5 MW off-grid solar microgrid is being developed in Tibet to supply power to remote communities. A 2 MW tidal energy pilot project is being installed in Zhejiang to test the potential of ocean currents for electricity generation.
