On January 1st, the cumulative power generation of the first domestically developed LNG cold energy power generation device at CNOOC's Ningbo "Green Energy Port" reached over 5 million kWh. This achievement comes after the device logged 1,000 and 2,000 hours of cumulative operation, marking another significant milestone in the utilization of LNG cold energy in China.
Based on the existing split - type intermediate medium vaporizer of the second phase of the Ningbo "Green Energy Port" receiving station project, the device generates power through a low - temperature Rankine cycle process. With a designed annual output of around 23 million kWh, it is equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 14,000 tons annually, or planting 780,000 trees, demonstrating remarkable energy - saving and carbon - reducing effects.
As the global energy structure shifts, China's demand for LNG is on the rise, with more than 30 LNG receiving stations currently in operation nationwide. LNG cold energy represents a vast and green energy source, yet its utilization rate during the production and transportation processes at receiving stations remains relatively low.
The completion and stable operation of the first domestic LNG cold energy power generation device at Ningbo "Green Energy Port" are expected to further promote the application of LNG cold energy power generation. This will effectively boost the utilization rate of cold energy and bring new growth opportunities to the green power industry.
