On December 19, 2025, with sea breezes sweeping across Gaolan Port in Zhuhai, the fully automated conveying corridor for the supporting project of the CHN Energy loading tower, custom-built by CCTEG's Storage and Loading Engineering Unit, commenced heavy-load joint commissioning. As the startup button was pressed, belt conveyors began smooth operation and control system indicator lights lit up in sequence. This moment not only signified that the key project—the CHN Energy loading tower and its supporting facilities aimed at bridging the "last mile of sea-rail intermodal transport"—was fully ready for operation, but also powerfully demonstrated CCTEG's Storage and Loading Unit's technological innovation strength and efficient project execution capability, adding robust support for the energy security of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

At the launch ceremony, screens in the central control room tracked the entire coal conveying process in real-time: an approximately 978-meter-long fully enclosed coal conveying corridor links the CHN Energy wharf to the newly built loading tower. Coal arriving by sea is transported via belt conveyors to a surge bin, then transferred to a 100-ton batch weighing hopper, before being precisely loaded into railway wagons. To ensure successful joint commissioning, CCTEG's Storage and Loading Unit deployed senior technical experts to conduct comprehensive debugging, focusing on critical aspects including belt conveyor operation, train traction and positioning, batch loading accuracy, fully automated process control, and safety interlock systems. The team efficiently identified and resolved various issues throughout the process, ensuring stable operation of all equipment and laying a solid foundation for the project's subsequent official operation.

As a crucial node project among Zhuhai's key construction projects for 2025, the fully automated conveying corridor for the CHN Energy loading tower involved constructing three new transfer houses (T19, T20, T21), laying approximately 978 meters of fully enclosed belt corridor, and installing supporting equipment, with a designed annual handling capacity of 10 million tons. Facing multiple challenges such as a tight schedule, high integration complexity, and intensive overlapping work phases, CCTEG's Storage and Loading Unit leveraged its extensive technical expertise and project experience in port storage and loading. A dedicated task force was assembled, adhering to the principles of "high standards, high quality, and high efficiency." Every stage, from custom equipment R&D and intelligent manufacturing to on-site installation, was executed with meticulous precision. Tailoring solutions to Gaolan Port's operational environment and loading efficiency requirements, the team custom-developed conveying equipment and control systems, with all equipment undergoing rigorous testing. The on-site project team scientifically planned the construction scheme, precisely allocated manpower and resources, and strictly implemented safety production and quality control responsibilities. Ultimately, they compressed the conventional 180-day construction period down to 70 days, successfully completing all equipment fabrication and installation tasks. This set a new domestic record for similar projects, earning high recognition from partners with the "CCTEG Speed."

"Completing the supporting project in 70 days sets a new speed record for similar domestic engineering constructions. This fully demonstrates the professional capability, collaborative spirit, and sense of mission of Zhuhai's state-owned enterprises and their partners," said Xu Haidong, Deputy General Manager of Zhuhai Traffic Control Group, expressing high recognition and affirmation for CCTEG's Storage and Loading Unit at the project launch. As a leading enterprise in the field of bulk material intelligent storage and loading, the company始终 prioritizes client needs. From technology R&D to project implementation, it insists on driving industrial upgrading through technological innovation. To date, it has supplied and maintained three sets of loading systems at Zhuhai's Gaolan Port, which have been operating stably for nearly a decade. The successful joint commissioning of this new project once again verifies the technical advancement and engineering reliability of CCTEG's Storage and Loading Unit in the field of port intelligent loading systems. It holds significant strategic importance for building the Greater Bay Area's energy security system and establishing a regional energy supply hub.

Looking ahead, CCTEG's Storage and Loading Unit will continue to deepen its expertise in intelligent storage and loading technologies. Supported by cutting-edge technologies like remote control and unmanned operation, it will persistently leverage its technical and managerial advantages, continuously optimize project operation mechanisms, and assist in developing the Zhuhai Gaolan Port Energy Hub Project into an industry benchmark renowned for being green, intelligent, and efficient, injecting even stronger "CCTEG power" into the construction of the Greater Bay Area's energy security hub.
