Green Electricity from Rooftops! The largest rooftop distributed photovoltaic project in Guangdong has successfully connected to the grid.
Recently, the photovoltaic power generation project in the A zone of the Foshan Lecong Steel World, invested and constructed by <b>China Power Construction Corporation</b>, has begun generating power. This marks the full-capacity operation of Guangdong's largest rooftop distributed photovoltaic power generation project, which supports the green development of the metal industry and helps achieve the <b>"dual carbon"</b> goals.
The Foshan Lecong Steel World distributed photovoltaic power generation project, located in Lecong Town, Shunde District, Foshan City, Guangdong Province, is divided into six areas. The total construction area is approximately <b>950,000 square meters</b>, with a total installed capacity of around <b>100 megawatts</b>. The annual electricity generation exceeds <b>120 million kilowatt-hours</b>, making it the largest rooftop distributed photovoltaic project in Guangdong.
The A zone project, constructed by the <b>Hydropower Seventh Engineering Bureau</b> of China Power Construction Corporation, covers about <b>220,000 square meters</b> with an installed capacity of approximately <b>21 megawatts</b>, utilizing <b>590-watt monofacial monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic modules</b>. After going into operation, the average annual electricity generation is expected to be around <b>22 million kilowatt-hours</b>, with a total expected output during its operational period exceeding <b>550 million kilowatt-hours</b>. This will save approximately <b>165,400 tons</b> of standard coal and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about <b>453,200 tons</b>, continuously providing the local area with <b>green electricity</b> and aiding in the optimization of energy distribution and the promotion of a clean, low-carbon energy transition.
During the construction period of the project, the team faced numerous challenges, such as significant weather disruptions, tight construction schedules, concentrated commercial buildings within the park, limited space for construction reinforcement, dense equipment, and complex routing of high-voltage cable installations that needed to pass through merchants' entrances. Despite these difficulties, the project team effectively managed the timeline and executed the plan, successfully completing all tasks within <b>120 days</b>. This effort has enabled the successful implementation of the <b>"photovoltaic + metal"</b> model, transforming rooftops into <b>power stations</b>.
