Construction of China's first large-scale new energy resource recycling project begins

China News Service, Tianjin, November 3 (Reporter Zhou Yaqiang) The reporter learned from the Tianjin-based China Resources Recycling Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Resources Recycling") on the 3rd that China's first new energy resource recycling large-scale industrial project has recently started construction in Jiuquan, Gansu.

This project is the Jiuquan New Energy Resources Recycling Industry Project (Phase I). It is invested and constructed by China Resources Recycling Group New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Zihuan New Energy"), a subsidiary of China Resources and Environmental Protection. It is located in Jiuquan Economic and Technological Development Zone and relies on the renovation of existing factories. It has a total construction area of ​​27,032 square meters and a construction period of 6 months. It is planned to be completed in April 2027 and trial production will start in May.

The project focuses on the recycling and disposal of decommissioned wind power equipment. It is equipped with special equipment such as blade crushing, complete machine disassembly inspection and assembly, and electrical component disassembly inspection. After completion, it will have the annual recycling and disposal capacity of 300 sets of wind turbines of 2 MW and below.

According to project leader Jiang Dong, decommissioned wind turbines are divided according to working conditions: those in acceptable condition are repaired and remanufactured into second-hand fans for use in off-grid power supply scenarios; the rest are refined and dismantled to recover industrial raw materials such as recycled steel, copper, aluminum and recycled glass fiber. The subsequent second and third phases will gradually add disposal capacity for scrapped photovoltaic modules and scrapped energy storage equipment.

At the same time, Zihuan New Energy is building a regional integrated collection and transportation network to provide nearby disposal services for the Hexi Corridor and northwest wind and solar bases. The company will also lay out a three-dimensional recycling system, including a national backbone network, national hubs, regional recycling centers and satellite front-end collection warehouses.
