[Nord Group plans to build an energy power station in Huangshi, Hubei]On September 20, 2023, Nord Shengshi, a subsidiary of Nord Group, plans to sign a "Project Investment Contract" with Huangshi Economic and Technological Development Zone in Hubei Province to invest in the construction of the Nord Solar Energy Storage Power Station Zero Carbon Smart Industrial Park project, with a total planned fixed asset investment of 5.2 billion yuan. The project plans to build a 500MW distributed photovoltaic power station project, a 1500MWh industrial and commercial energy storage power station project, as well as facilities such as distribution networks and charging stations in the Huangshi Economic and Technological Development Zone. After the project is fully completed and put into operation, it can provide about 580 million kWh of clean energy green electricity annually, save 170000 tons of standard coal annually, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 50000 tons annually. The first phase of the industrial park is planned to be completed and put into operation in June 2024, while the second and third phases of the project are planned to be completed and put into operation in April 2026.

Recently, the core project of Wanma New Energy Technology Co., Ltd.'s new energy storage special action, the 500000 kW/2 million kWh grid side energy storage project, has officially started construction in Naiman Banner, Inner Mongolia. The total investment of this project is 1.9 billion yuan, located on the east side of the Naiman Jinsha 500kV substation in Daqintala Town, with a planned land area of 200 acres, marking a new stage of large-scale energy storage development on the power grid side in China. The project adopts the full lithium iron phosphate technology route and plans to construct a 500MW/2000MWh energy storage system, with a total of 100 sets of standardized 5MW/20MWh energy storage units. Each unit is integrated with one 5MWPCS all-in-one machine, four 5MWh battery compartments, and a complete set of supporting facilities in a prefabricated container, achieving modular deployment. The electrical system is connected to the 35kV distribution equipment through 24 collection lines, and is boosted to 220kV by two 250MVA main transformers before being connected to the Jinsha 500kV substation, creating an efficient grid connection channel. After the project is put into operation, it can achieve an annual sales revenue of 3 billion yuan and a tax revenue of 100 million yuan, create 200 job opportunities, significantly enhance the peak shaving and new energy consumption capacity of the Inner Mongolia East Power Grid, provide an important demonstration for the construction of a new power system, and promote the coordinated development of energy transformation and regional economy.

Hunan Dazhonghe Lithium Mine Co., Ltd. recently held the groundbreaking ceremony for the new process lithium carbonate project for harmless comprehensive utilization of lithium slag. The project is expected to produce 80000 tons of battery grade lithium carbonate annually and is scheduled to be completed in 2028. On the same day, its parent company, Dazhong Mining, announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Chengtai Mining Investment Co., Ltd. in Chenzhou City, has obtained a mining license for the Jijiaoshan Lithium Mine in Hunan Province issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources, which is valid for 30 years. This mine is the first large-scale lithium mining license obtained by Dazhong Mining. The lithium mining resources reviewed and filed by the Ministry of Natural Resources have reached 489.872 million tons, equivalent to approximately 3.2443 million tons of lithium carbonate equivalent. The open-pit mining scale is 20 million tons per year. Based on industry experience and company testing, mining 20 million tons of raw ore annually can support the production of approximately 80000 tons of lithium carbonate, providing stable resource support for new lithium carbonate projects.
