Weichai Diesel Generator Sets Ensure Stable & Reliable Power Supply for Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport
Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport is a key 4F-level international aviation hub constructed under China’s 14th Five-Year Plan. The airport has been fully completed and is scheduled to officially open to traffic by the end of 2026. Recently, the complete set of emergency diesel generator systems tailor-made for Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport has finished equipment delivery, installation and comprehensive commissioning, and officially met the commissioning requirements, building a solid and reliable power security line for the new airport.
For the diesel generator procurement project of the airport’s main works, a total of 25 units of high-end Weichai M33/M55 series diesel generator sets have been delivered. The equipment fully covers the terminal operation control center, automatic baggage handling system, air cargo terminal, weak current room, fire protection and security systems, supporting hotels and core air traffic control areas, forming a dual redundant power supply system consisting of municipal power supply + emergency diesel power generation.
Electric power is the lifeline of operation for large aviation hubs. The Xiang'an Airport emergency diesel power supply system features millisecond automatic startup upon municipal power failure, automatic paralleling operation, unattended operation and intelligent monitoring. It can be put into operation instantly in case of sudden power outage, fully ensuring uninterrupted operation of core businesses including flight dispatch, baggage circulation, fire protection & security, entry-exit customs clearance, and strictly complies with the highest civil aviation safety operation and maintenance standards.
As a benchmark green and smart airport, Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport adopts a comprehensive power supply mode of municipal power as main supply + photovoltaic clean energy + diesel power as emergency backup. Featuring low fuel consumption, low emission and high stability, Weichai high-performance diesel generator sets work in coordination with photovoltaic systems.
They not only guarantee power supply security under extreme working conditions, but also align with the airport’s low-carbon construction philosophy, fully empowering the safe, green and efficient navigation operation of Xiang'an Airport.
Moving forward, Weichai diesel generator will continue to leverage its advantages in the complete industrial chain technology, provide high-end emergency power supply solutions, deeply serve major national transportation hubs and infrastructure projects, and keep empowering the stable operation of national infrastructure.
