[PowerChina Newly Signed Zambia Photovoltaic Grid Connection Project] Recently, PowerChina Hydropower 11th Bureau signed a contract with Zambia Copper Strip Energy Company for the grid connection project of the Itingpi photovoltaic power station. This project is invested and developed by Copper Strip Energy Company, located in the Kitwei Itingpi area of Zambia's Economic and Electrical Load Copper Strip Province. It is a grid connected supporting facility for the Itingpi Photovoltaic Power Station under construction by the 11th Hydroelectric Bureau. The main work includes the design, procurement, and full process construction of the 50 MW photovoltaic power station grid connected transmission, including civil engineering, electromechanical, control and monitoring, and all other on-site engineering. After the completion of the project, it will provide guarantees for the smooth generation and grid connection of photovoltaic power stations, which is of great significance in alleviating regional electricity demand conflicts and enhancing green power supply capabilities.
