Revolutionizing the Coal Power Era: The KBSG Series Mining Flameproof Transformer 𝟑.𝟎 Arrives!

Facing ever-rising electricity demand, China's energy supply capability is also undergoing a severe test.As the cornerstone of power supply, coal power not only responds rapidly to load fluctuations but also builds a solid line of defense for energy security.In this campaign to safeguard energy supply, coal power, with its stable and reliable characteristics, once again stands firm as the anchor.

Under the "Dual Carbon" Goals #01

Coal Remains China's Primary Energy Source

Under the "dual carbon" goals, emission reduction and coal sit at opposite ends of a delicate balance. As the ballast of the energy system and the broader economy and society, coal must simultaneously support the energy transition and hold the line on security.

The report to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed advancing the energy revolution, promoting the clean and efficient use of coal, accelerating the planning and construction of a new energy system, and actively participating in global climate governance.

Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued the Action Plan for Low-Carbon Transformation and Construction of Coal Power (2024—2027), arranging coordinated efforts to advance the low-carbon retrofit of existing coal power units and the low-carbon construction of new ones.

Driven by continuous policy support, coal power is entering a new construction cycle.

A New Peak in Coal Power Capacity #02

Sustained and Strong Market Demand

Although new energy sources such as wind and photovoltaic power have developed rapidly in recent years, their generation is intermittent and unstable, making it difficult to meet electricity demand during extreme weather such as high temperatures. Higher technology costs also constrain large-scale application, which limits the share of new energy in the power supply.

Coal power units, by contrast, offer high reliability, stability and response speed, and can generate electricity continuously and stably under extreme weather conditions such as high temperatures, quickly adjusting output to cope with sudden load changes and meeting growth in electricity demand.

By the end of 2023, China's installed coal power capacity was about 1.17 billion kilowatts, accounting for 40% of the nation's total installed power capacity. Coal used for power generation accounted for about 60% of national coal consumption, and carbon emissions from coal power represented about 40% of the national total.

These figures not only reflect the scale of China's investment in coal power, but also point to the growth trend of installed coal power capacity in the years ahead.

The construction cycle of a coal power plant is usually about a year and a half, so most of the nearly 200 million kilowatts of approved coal power capacity mentioned above is expected to enter operation in 2024. This means 2024 will see a major surge in installed coal power capacity.

KBSG Series Mining Flameproof #03

Dry-Type Transformer Upgraded and Ready for the Market!

Mine production environments are complex, with harsh conditions such as high temperatures, high pressure and high humidity, placing extremely high demands on the safety performance of electrical equipment. Drawing on 34 years of accumulated manufacturing experience, insight into industry trends, and technological innovation and product development as its driving force, and keeping pace with market demand, CEEG's KBSG series mining flameproof dry-type transformer has been upgraded and is ready for the market!

The reliability of the flameproof enclosure in design and production is key to ensuring the safety performance of mining flameproof products. Building on the company's second-generation patented corrugated enclosure, CEEG's KBSG series mining flameproof dry-type transformer innovatively adopts active cooling tubes, equipping the transformer with an intelligent "breathing system" and achieving zoned, high-efficiency heat dissipation, greatly improving the equipment's heat dissipation performance, slowing the aging of insulation materials and thereby enhancing the product's reliability and stability. In addition, the top of the KBSG series features an arc-shaped corrugated plate design, which on the one hand increases the heat dissipation area of the enclosure, and on the other hand prevents coal dust from accumulating and reduces the risk of it being ignited by high temperatures, further strengthening product safety.

Ensuring safe production and protecting life is the original intention behind CEEG's flameproof transformers. CEEG continuously focuses on product safety, applicability and reliability, winning a high market share and repeat purchases, and has already supplied more than 1,000 customers nationwide with tens of thousands of flameproof transformers. The products are widely used by enterprises including China Energy Investment Corporation, Ningxia Coal Industry Co., Ltd., Heilongjiang Longmay Coal Mining Group, Pingdingshan Coal Group, SDIC New Energy Group, Datong Coal Mine Group, Shandong Energy Group and Henan Yongmei Group.

In an era of rapid technological change, keeping pace with market demand and continually introducing new products and technologies is key to maintaining competitiveness and sustainable development. Looking ahead, CEEG will continue to uphold the core values of "vision, innovation and responsibility", actively respond to policy calls, and keep optimizing and upgrading core products such as the KBSG series mining flameproof dry-type transformer. With superior performance and more attentive service, it will support the deep integration of coal power and renewable energy, jointly advancing the green transition and high-quality development of the energy industry.
