The main project of the first Buddhist public welfare photovoltaic power station "Lingyin Photovoltaic No. 1" was completed

On April 12, the construction of the third phase of the Qianhai Photovoltaic Demonstration Power Station of China Merchants New Energy Group (hereinafter referred to as the third phase project) was completed, which means that the world's first Buddhist public welfare photovoltaic power station, "Lingyin Photovoltaic No.
1", has entered the stage of grid-connected trial operation and commissioning
.
This project is a positive response to the Paris Agreement signed on April 22 and a grand tribute
to the G20 summit in Hangzhou in September this year.

In order to effectively implement China's "energy conservation and emission reduction" energy policy and rationally develop and utilize green renewable energy, China Merchants New Energy Group has carried out the construction of "Qianhai Photovoltaic Power Generation Demonstration Project" in Shenzhen Qianhai Shekou Free Trade Zone since June 2012
.
The project selects the roof of warehouse No.
1~6 of the China Merchants Bonded Logistics Park in the free trade zone as the construction site of the photovoltaic power station, with a planned total installed capacity of 10MW and a design service life of 25 years
.

Up to now, the 2.
1MW photovoltaic power station of the first phase project and the 0.
3MW photovoltaic power station of the second phase project have been successfully connected to the grid in
September 2012 and May 2014 respectively.
The third phase of the project began to be prepared in January 2016, and the main project construction was completed on April 12, and entered the stage of grid-connected trial operation and commissioning
.

Taking advantage of the construction of the third phase of the project, China Merchants New Energy Group united forces from all walks of life to actively launch the "Lingyin Photovoltaic No.
1" public welfare project to build and operate the world's first Buddhist public welfare photovoltaic power station
.
The project is included in the third phase of the project with an installed capacity of 1MW.

After a half-month defect elimination test, the overall operation of the power station of the third phase project is good, and further defect elimination work will be carried out in the future to prepare
for formal operation.
The third phase of the project is located on the roof of No.
4 warehouse in China Merchants Bonded Logistics Park, Qianhai Shekou Free Trade Zone, Shenzhen, with a total installed capacity of 1.
5MW.

The "Lingyin Photovoltaic No.
1" public welfare project is the first initiative to combine investment new energy and public welfare environmental protection, opening up a new model of "photovoltaic + public welfare" and providing a new public welfare path
for global photovoltaic enterprises.
The implementation of this public welfare project reflects the determination of enterprises to actively respond to the call of the country, vigorously develop new energy, innovate and practice the concept of green and low-carbon environmental protection, and aim to guide the public to pay attention to and participate in environmental protection construction to cope with global climate change and improve the global environment, and jointly build a low-carbon and environmentally friendly economic development model
with practical actions.
