DMEGC Solar has helped Hengdian Wenrong Hospital, the largest hospital in its region, shift a major part of its energy use to solar power. The company has completed a 1.2 MW distributed solar power project at the hospital, marking an important step toward cleaner and more sustainable healthcare infrastructure in China. The solar system is now fully operational and has been installed across the hospital’s rooftops as well as through solar carport structures.
DMEGC Solar is a globally recognized solar module manufacturer and is ranked among the top five in the world by Wood Mackenzie. It is also a listed subsidiary of Hengdian Group, one of China’s largest private enterprises. Through this project, the company has demonstrated how renewable energy can be smoothly integrated into essential public services such as hospitals, where power reliability and cost control are critical.
The solar installation uses DMEGC’s high-efficiency bifacial dual-glass 635W modules based on advanced N-type cell technology. The system is expected to generate around 1.32 million units of clean electricity every year. Over its estimated 30-year operating life, total electricity generation is projected to reach nearly 39.6 million units. This will significantly reduce the hospital’s dependence on conventional grid electricity and help lower long-term energy expenses.
The environmental benefits of the project are also substantial. The hospital is expected to reduce its carbon emissions by about 754 metric tons every year. This reduction is comparable to the impact of planting nearly 29,000 trees annually. The project directly supports China’s national “Dual Carbon” goals, which focus on achieving carbon peak and long-term carbon neutrality.
An important feature of the project is the use of solar canopy carports. These structures not only generate electricity but also provide covered parking for hospital staff and visitors. By using previously unused spaces, the hospital has been able to increase functionality without additional land use.
The project operates under a “self-generation, surplus-to-grid” model. Most of the electricity produced is consumed within the hospital, while excess power is supplied to the local grid. This project reflects the growing interest in distributed solar solutions across China’s healthcare sector, where cost savings and environmental responsibility are becoming key priorities.
