The total investment exceeds 5.3 billion yuan! Construction of the world's largest hydro-solar hybrid power station begins

After the Kola Photovoltaic Power Station is completed, it will use a 500 kV transmission line to achieve water-to-solar complementarity with the Lianghekou Hydropower Station, which was connected to the grid at full capacity in March this year. By then, the project will become the world's first million-kilowatt "water-solar hybrid" project.

As the main force in the development of new energy, photovoltaics have many advantages such as flexible installation locations and low initial investment costs. However, they will be affected by weather conditions and other shortcomings, which also cause extreme damage to the power grid system. A lot of pressure. It needs to be complementary with other new energy sources in order to better utilize its advantages. Water-solar complementarity, wind-solar complementarity, etc. are all important operating methods to promote photovoltaic grid-connected consumption.

In Garze Prefecture, where the Kola Photovoltaic Power Station is located, there are seasonal differences in photovoltaic power generation, which naturally complements the characteristics of hydropower generation in the "summer wet season and winter dry season". Kola Photovoltaic is connected to Lianghekou Hydropower Station. After the water and light are bundled, it can output stable power, which can be sent out for centralized consumption.
