At 11:00 p.m. on May 2, with the help of ZOOMLION cranes, the first wind turbine hoisting of Section II of the main construction project of the wind farm of the Xinjiang Tianshan North Foothill New Energy Base Project, my country's first "Shagohuang" large base transmission channel project, was successfully completed, pressing the accelerator for "Xinjiang Power into Chongqing".   The project is an important part of the "Xinjiang Power into Chongqing", a key project of the "14th Five-Year Plan" of the country, with a total installed capacity of 4.1 million kW. After completion, it will effectively integrate Chongqing's electricity demand with Xinjiang's resource advantages and promote the cross-regional optimization of energy resources. The construction scale of Section II of the project is huge, and the wind turbine installation needs to be completed on hundreds of square kilometers of Gobi Desert.   The wind turbine unit hoisted by ZOOMLION cranes this time has a single unit capacity of 8.35MW, a blade length of 103m, and a whole wind turbine weight of 735t. Faced with challenges such as tight construction schedule and complex environment, the project team formulated a "one machine, one plan" before hoisting, and repeatedly simulated key steps such as the placement of site equipment and tools, crane station position, and full-load test. The Gobi Desert often blows 6-7 level winds during the day. In order to ensure safety, the hoisting of wind turbine blades is arranged at night.   During the hoisting, everyone seized the window period of light wind, and a ZOOMLION 1000t crawler crane and three auxiliary cranes started the operation simultaneously. During the entire hoisting process, the equipment was lifted steadily. As the Y530 wind turbine blades achieved "millimeter-level" docking with the nacelle at an altitude of 116m, the precise performance fully met the construction expectations, creating a good start for the subsequent advancement of the project. In the future, ZOOMLION will continue to use various types of crane equipment with leading technology and excellent quality to create efficient and reliable full-scenario wind power hoisting solutions, serve the construction of major projects in various places, and help achieve the "dual carbon" goals as soon as possible.
