Wintop Optical has been approved for the construction of wind power projects in Inner Mongolia

 

According to data released by the National Energy Administration, as of the end of September 2023, the country's cumulative installed wind power capacity exceeded 400 million kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of 15%, including 368 million kilowatts of onshore wind power and 31.89 million kilowatts of offshore wind power. In the first three quarters of 2023, the national wind power generation capacity was 630.5 billion kilowatt-hours, a year-on-year increase of 16%. The national average wind power utilization rate was 97.1%, a year-on-year increase of 0.6 percentage points. The key to promoting clean and low-carbon energy transformation is to accelerate the development of non-fossil energy, especially new energy sources such as wind power and solar power. About 95% of my country's non-fossil energy is mainly converted into electrical energy for utilization.

 

  Project Introduction

 

The Shadege 50 MW wind power project in Longyuan, Northern Inner Mongolia is located in Shadegesumubiktigacha, with a total investment of 400 million yuan and an area of 30 acres. The project mainly constructs 25 wind turbines with a single capacity of 2,000 kilowatts and 35,000 volts. 1 booster station. The project can generate 110 million KWH annually and generate annual sales revenue of 56 million yuan. Compared with thermal power plants of the same scale, the project can save 30,200 tons of standard coal throughout the year, reduce sulfur dioxide emissions by 338.4 tons, reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by 349.5 tons, reduce carbon monoxide emissions by 8 tons, reduce smoke and dust emissions by 40 tons, and reduce ash emissions. 08,000 tons. The completion of the project will fill the gap in wind power generation in Qianqi and play an important role in alleviating the power consumption problems of the regional power grid and improving environmental quality.

 

?Project Challenges

 

As the province with the largest installed capacity of new energy in my country, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is rich in wind and solar resources and has huge development potential. It has always been a battleground for new energy development companies. However, the geographical location of wind farms is relatively scattered and remote, and wind power projects Mainly concentrated in deserts, Gobi, desert and other areas, the environment and climate are complex and changeable, and the irresistible factors are obvious, making it difficult to manage power stations as an important part of the power network and to carry out safety precautions. The wind turbine is located in a remote location, and abnormal temperature is one of the important characteristic indicators of defects in electrical equipment such as transformers, lightning arresters, capacitors, and circuit breakers. Project sites are often attended by few or unattended people, and manual inspection efficiency is low. It is multi-faceted and the data lacks real-time and continuity. In addition, high-voltage equipment is dangerous.

 

Project requirements

 

In order to make inspections easier and operation and maintenance more technological, how to achieve "cost reduction and efficiency increase" from several dimensions such as ensuring high equipment availability, improving wind power operation and maintenance efficiency, and reducing operation and maintenance costs through accurate smart operation and maintenance, in power stations It is of great significance to realize unattended and remote management. If a power station is to be truly unattended, it must provide necessary security guarantees for the power station itself, and monitor various objects such as environmental conditions, key equipment, and key locations, so that the power station can be truly unattended. For example, each wind turbine has a power generation capacity of 2MW, and there are a total of 25 wind turbines on the project site, which requires timely and comprehensive monitoring of the site environment.

 

Yuantuo Optoelectronics Solutions

 

Based on the working environment and construction method of the wind farm, the cost of site inspection and operation and maintenance is high, and sudden failures cannot be handled in time. A remote operation and maintenance auxiliary monitoring system is needed to realize the facility monitoring, protection and equipment operation of the wind farm. Remote support for monitoring, operation and maintenance operations and equipment operation warnings can reduce the number of routine inspections, upgrade daily planned routine maintenance to early warning maintenance, and improve the utilization rate, availability rate and unit manpower productivity of power generation equipment.

 

Yuantuo Optoelectronics' solution for operation and maintenance auxiliary monitoring of the Shadege 50MW wind farm in Longyuan, northern Inner Mongolia, is to form a 4-way WT-Ring ring network with 25 wind turbines at the project site, and each wind turbine is placed with an RS6310-2GF8GT network management switch. The 4-way ring network is connected to the central monitoring CM6124-12GF12GT network management switch to transmit front-end video environment monitoring and fan vibration monitoring data to the monitoring center.

 

Application product features:

 

In the Shadege 50MW wind power project in Inner Mongolia, through the introduction of Yuantuo Optoelectronics industrial switch solutions, reasonable network architecture design, redundancy design and security measures were adopted, which effectively improved the stability, reliability and security of data transmission in the substation. It provides strong support for the daily operation and management of wind farms. At the same time, the project also reduced maintenance costs and safety risks, achieved remarkable results, and provided useful reference for the implementation of other similar projects.
