A single storage of 20 million kilowatt-hours of electricity can supply power for 5,000 households for one day. This statement was made during a press conference by government officials, emphasizing the importance of energy storage for sustainable development.
The newly constructed energy storage facility in Chengdu, which has recently passed inspection, comprises 40 “container boxes” that facilitate energy storage. This facility is designed to support the increasing energy demands of the city. It can provide power equivalent to the daily energy needs of 5,000 households for a full day, with the capacity to store energy efficiently during peak times.
Additionally, Chengdu is developing other energy storage projects, including the Yongzhong Bridge, Longmen Mountain, and several other sites, all aiming to enhance the city’s energy infrastructure.
According to the Chengdu Economic and Information Bureau, the new energy storage facility is part of a broader initiative to stabilize the power grid during peak energy consumption periods. This project aims to integrate renewable energy sources, enhance energy security, and support the city’s transition to a greener energy model.
The facility, referred to as the “energy storage powerhouse,” is crucial for maintaining balance between energy production and consumption. It is designed to respond quickly to fluctuations in energy demand, ensuring reliable power supply for the city’s residents.
As of May 20, 2025, Chengdu’s new energy storage facility is expected to commence operations, significantly contributing to the city’s power grid stability. The energy storage system will be able to meet the energy needs during high-demand periods and support the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid.
With the increasing focus on sustainable development and energy efficiency, this facility represents a significant step forward in addressing energy challenges and promoting a greener future for Chengdu.
