On September 23rd, the world's first zero carbon off grid solar energy storage and swapping station and the Silk Road Star Gorge NIO swapping station were officially launched. The project adopts LONGi BLOCK mobile energy station and LONGi OneNexus off microgrid energy storage system to jointly build a complete solution for 24-hour zero carbon battery swapping with NIO in extreme environments without grid coverage. This is also another brand new landing of Longi Guangjian in the transportation energy supplement scene.
Join forces to break through the situation, when the battery swapping network encounters a no network situation
With the accelerated popularization of new energy vehicles, the energy replenishment network is extending from urban core areas to high-speed highways and remote areas. But in areas where the power grid is weak or even completely disconnected, the construction of traditional battery swapping stations faces an unavoidable challenge: where does the electricity come from?
Xingxingxia is located on the G30 Lianhuo Expressway, with an average annual wind force of 8 or above for more than 100 days. In summer, the surface temperature can reach over 70 ℃, and in winter, the extreme low temperature drops to -30 ℃. NIO is laying out a 24-hour battery swapping station here. If the power grid expansion plan is adopted, it will need to cross over 200 kilometers of Gobi Desert, with a long construction period and high investment.
This is exactly the problem that Longi and NIO are working together to solve: to ensure that the battery swapping network can still operate and provide continuous services in areas where the power grid cannot reach. The battery swapping station does not need to wait for grid expansion, and the landing cycle has been shortened from several years to several weeks.
Longi's technological accumulation in the field of off grid optical storage and NIO's continuous expansion in the supplementary energy network have found a convergence point in Xingxingxia.
Using a light storage base to support off grid battery swapping
Longji provides a complete off grid solution for solar energy storage for the Xingxingxia battery swapping station. LONGi BLOCK mobile energy station and LONGi OneNexus off microgrid energy storage system, using photovoltaics as the sole energy source, build a zero carbon closed-loop system of "generation storage use", and independently undertake all power support for the battery swapping station. Among them, the energy storage part adopts the H2D energy storage system from the OneNexus series.
LONGi BLOCK mobile energy station is a photovoltaic power station installed in a standard cabin, with components, bracketsInverterThe power distribution is highly integrated before leaving the factory, and there is no need for civil engineering on site. It can generate electricity immediately upon landing and be deployed in a few hours; At Xingxingxia, the HPBC 2.0 is highly efficientBatteryComponents generate more electricity with the same area and experience less high-temperature attenuation.
The Longi H2D energy storage system receives surplus electricity during the day and discharges it at night. Lithium iron phosphate system, capacity 261kWh, AC side 125kW, equipped with EMS intelligent energy management, supports millisecond level off grid switching and black start. When the battery level drops to 40% on consecutive cloudy days, it will automatically switch to emergency mode, with 20% reserved to ensure critical loads, and the entire process will be unmanned. Liquid cooled temperature control and high protection level ensure long-term stable operation of the system in the Gobi environment; Cell level safety monitoring achieves multi-dimensional real-time monitoring, with thermal runaway warning advanced by more than fifteen minutes.
Automatic switching between three modes: daytime power generation, nighttime discharge, and emergency response on cloudy days. A set of optical storage system enables the battery swapping station to remain online 24 hours a day even in a network free environment.
One verification, one new path
The launch of the Xingxingxia project is the first joint landing of Longi and NIO in the off grid battery swapping scenario, and also a benchmark model verification.
In the past, the layout of battery swapping networks in areas with weak power grids was constrained by the construction cycles of power grids and traditional distributed power stations; LONGi BLOCK's mobile off grid optical storage solution has opened up new possibilities for this matter. And landing in the extreme environment of Xingxingxia is also a real test of product reliability and system synergy.
The battery swapping network extends to remote areas, and the optical storage system evolves towards mobility and modularity, where the two paths intersect. The value of this plan is not limited to just a battery swapping station.
LONGi BLOCK mobile energy stations provide the same problem-solving approach for different scenarios such as mines, construction sites, oil and gas fields, infrastructure projects, agricultural irrigation, islands, and remote base stations, allowing energy consumption scenarios to no longer be limited.
Two thousand years ago, camel caravans crossed the Gobi Desert through the relay of water and food; Today, the tram travels through the same desert, relying on the relay of light and energy storage. When green energy is no longer limited by the power grid, and every battery swapping station can carry sunshine on the road, zero carbon travel truly has the ability to go far.
Wherever the sunshine comes, Longji accompanies.
