To ensure the seamless integration of this massive “power bank” into the Zhejiang power grid, State Grid Zhejiang Electric Power Investment has invested 950 million yuan in constructing 178 new transmission towers and laying 152.3 kilometers of transmission lines as part of the project.

The total installed capacity of the Ninghai Pumped Storage Power Station is 1,400 megawatts. It will play a pivotal role in Zhejiang's power grid, encompassing functions like peak load management, valley filling, frequency regulation, and emergency backup, thereby ensuring the safe, cost-effective, and stable operation of the Zhejiang power grid.
It will also serve as a vital power transmission conduit for local new energy sources, such as wind and photovoltaic systems.
