The plant adopted 1.396 million pcs CHINT ASTRO 450Wp mono-Si PV modules, covering an area of about 4.7km². So far, this is the Top1 large-scale single-unit aquaculture-PV complementary Solar Plant in China. In order to tackle such a complicated project over the sea, the team of CHINT has come out with a variety of innovations regarding the marine function exploitation, which were great contributions to the PV industry.

During all the past years, Astronergy/CHINT Solar has always been following its philosophy of "Splendid PV", making the solar power enhance the green development of the cities and bringing the clean energy from the sea to the cities. The present project is a perfect example, which combined the PV generation with the land reclamation, and the power generation with the aquaculture. The utilization of the sea is tremendous elevated when the power generation and the aquaculture are taking place at the same time.

In addition, thanks to the complete industrial chain of CHINT, Astronergy/CHINT Solar is not only the supplier of the electrical transmission and distribution equipment, but also the O&M service provider. By linking CHINT Epower Intelligent O&M Cloud Platform and other technologies, assist in routine management of this Solar Power Station, and succeed in Centralized-monitoring, Intelligent Operation & Maintenance and Refined Management of this Solar Plant.
