The inaugural grid connection ceremony for the 4-gigawatt New Energy Mega Project, located in the coal mining subsidence zone of Ordos city in Western Inner Mongolia autonomous region, was recently held in the city's Otog Front Banner.

This project, selected as part of the second batch of national large-scale wind and solar power bases in June 2022, encompasses a total area of 132,000 mu (8,800 hectares) and has received approximately 20 billion yuan ($2.75 billion) in investment.

Located primarily in the coal mining subsidence zone and areas awaiting mining near the power plant, the project utilizes 8 gigawatts of thermal power units for peak shaving and will feature a 4-GW photovoltaic power generation base.

The initial grid connection and power delivery of the 4GW New Energy Mega Project mark an important milestone, signifying a substantial leap from construction to operational power generation for this massive undertaking.
