New Energy Manufacturing Environmental System Solutions
As China’s “dual-carbon” strategy continues to deepen, the new-energy industry is entering a new phase of rapid development. The large-scale expansion of high-end manufacturing sectors such as photovoltaics, lithium batteries, and energy storage is placing ever-higher demands on production environment control. Currently, new-energy manufacturing plants generally face challenges including high energy consumption in air-conditioning systems, insufficient precision in humidity control, and stringent cleanliness requirements.
The core features of the environmental control system for new-energy factories can be summarized in the following four aspects:
1. The energy consumption intensity is particularly high due to the large scale of production space and long operating hours; the central chilled-water plant accounts for 40% to 60% of the total energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to achieve refined load regulation through efficient cooling sources and system optimization.
2. Environmental control is stringent: Lithium battery production requires an ultra-low humidity environment with relative humidity ≤1%. Photovoltaic manufacturing necessitates effective control of particulate matter concentration. Environmental parameters directly affect product safety and yield.
3. The energy cycle demands significant heat sources for process heating, dehumidification, and drying stages, where large quantities of high-temperature heat are required. At the same time, low-grade heat sources such as waste heat from air compressors and process hot water hold substantial potential for recovery and reuse.
4. Auxiliary spaces—including complex distribution rooms, testing areas, and storage zones—must be equipped with specialized temperature-control solutions in parallel to ensure the stability of the entire production chain.
As a professional multinational group specializing in the manufacturing and sales of air conditioning, ventilation, and refrigeration equipment, SCHLEE products and technologies cover a comprehensive range of industrial HVAC equipment. Through continuous advancements in quality, innovation, and service, we provide the following specialized technical solutions for new-energy plant environmental systems:
1. High-efficiency cooling source configuration scheme
The system features a modular host configuration that supports dual-operation cooling modes—low-temperature and medium-temperature chilled water—while working in conjunction with heat pump units and heat recovery devices to achieve cascaded energy utilization. By employing magnetic levitation bearings and multi-stage compression technology, each unit can deliver a cooling capacity ranging up to 4,000 RT, meeting the customized requirements for rapid construction and highly efficient data centers.
2. Industrial-grade thermal management solution
High-temperature heat pump systems can stably deliver process heat at temperatures ranging from 60 to 120°C, achieving energy savings of over 40% compared to conventional electric heating. By recovering low-grade heat sources such as waste heat from air compressors and process exhaust, these systems enable the regenerative utilization of various forms of energy, including steam, hot water, and hot air.
3. Precise Dehumidification Control Solution
For special processes such as lithium-battery production, a gradient dehumidification system is implemented by integrating rotary adsorption and condensation dehumidification technologies. This system can meet diverse operational requirements, including both conventional humidity levels and low dew points (-40℃), ensuring that the humidity in the production environment remains stable and meets specified standards.
4. Special Environment Adaptation Plan
Develop specialized equipment such as explosion-proof direct-expansion units and corrosion-resistant air handling units, tailored for special environments like chemical workshops and hazardous-material warehouses. Employ jet ventilation and localized air-conditioning technologies to achieve precise temperature control in specific areas of large spaces.
Note: All of the above solutions are equipped with an intelligent control system that supports energy consumption monitoring and fault functions, ensuring efficient operation throughout the system’s entire lifecycle.
