World's Largest Open Offshore Photovoltaic Project Grid Connected

It is reported that the first batch of power generation units of Guohua Investment's Shandong Kenli 1,000,000-kilowatt offshore photovoltaic project were successfully connected to the grid on November 13th. This project is the world's largest open offshore PV project and the first GW offshore PV project in the world, and its successful grid connection has played an important role in leading and demonstrating the large-scale development of China's and even the world's offshore PV industry.
Guohua invested in Shandong Kenli 1 million kilowatts of offshore PV project, located in the eastern Dongying City, Shandong Province, 8 kilometers offshore open sea area, the project sea area of about 1,223 hectares, the total installed capacity of 1 gigawatts, the use of block power generation, centralized grid-connected program construction. The project is the first in the world to adopt large-scale offshore steel truss platform-type fixed-pile construction technology, installing 2,934 photovoltaic platforms, with individual platforms measuring 60 meters long and 35 meters wide, and applying for the first time in the field of domestic photovoltaic industry the 66 kV sea cable + land cable large-capacity, long-distance transmission technology, with larger transmission capacity and lower cost.
"After the project is fully connected to the grid, it is expected that the annual power generation can reach 1.78 billion kilowatt-hours, which can approximately meet the electricity consumption of 2.67 million ordinary Chinese urban residents for one year, save about 503,800 tons of standard coal per year, and reduce the emission of carbon dioxide by about 1,344,700 tons per year." Wang Lin, the person in charge of the Shandong Kenli project of National Energy Group's Guohua Investment, said that the project also adopts the "fishery and light integration" development method, which will realize the three-dimensional comprehensive development and utilization of fishery farming and photovoltaic power generation, and it is expected that the annual income from fishery farming will be more than 27 million yuan, which will further enhance the value of the comprehensive utilization of the sea area.
It is reported that in recent years, National Energy Group Guohua Investment Company actively responded to Shandong Province to build a new era of ocean province strategy, fully into the maritime photovoltaic industry, access to 1.7 million kilowatts of new energy indicators of maritime photovoltaic, the first 1 million kilowatts of maritime photovoltaic project to take the lead in the realization of grid-connected power generation, in order to accelerate the layout of the new quality of productive capacity and expand the new industry has laid a good foundation.
