Project Description

If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

The objective of the project is to reduce carbon emission and promote renewable energy development, through using roof-top solar photovoltaic power technology to generate electricity in Shanghai Lingang Industrial Area (SLIA). The project aims to reduce 73,000 tons of carbon emission per year, providing electricity generated through 100 MW roof-top solar photovoltaic power with 1,155 effective generation hours per year. With the benefits from near point electricity generation, the project helps save the costs of potential transmission losses from importing electricity from provinces outside Shanghai.

The project will be divided into more than 30 sub-projects, sequentially implemented over a 3-year period. A 3 MW onsite pilot project has been successfully implemented to prove the concept. Electricity generated by the roof-top solar photovoltaic power will be sold to SLIA and the state grid.
