Local Government of Qinghai Province issued the “14th Five-Year Plan for Energy Development of Qinghai”

On February 28, the “14th Five-Year Plan for Energy Development of Qinghai” was issued which pointed out the key tasks of energy development, including actively developing applications of various new energy storage technologies such as electrochemical energy storage and compressed air energy storage. Relying on the resource advantages of salt lakes in Qinghai, it will actively promote the "new energy + energy storage" model, carry out pilot projects for compressed air energy storage and flywheel energy storage, explore the establishment of a shared energy storage operation mode, and promote the demonstration construction of GW-scale electrochemical energy storage on the supply-side, grid-side and user-side, and improve the short-term energy storage dispatch capacity of the power system. By 2025, 6 GW new energy storage such as electrochemical energy storage will be deployed.
