New Energy Equipment Export to Central Asia
Xi'an → Almaty
Overview
In Q3 2026, a leading Chinese new energy enterprise undertook the supply of components for a 20MW solar power station in Almaty, Kazakhstan, along with a complete battery energy storage system. The shipment included 1,200 solar panels and 50 sets of lithium battery storage units, to be transported from Xi'an via the China-Europe Railway Express (Central Asia direction). Since lithium batteries are classified as Class 9 dangerous goods (UN3481), the export required special declarations, dangerous goods packaging certificates, and railway hazardous cargo transport approvals. After multiple logistics providers failed to provide a viable solution, the client turned to ZJD International for a comprehensive service.
Solution
ZJD developed an integrated "solar + storage" co-loading transport plan:
Key Milestones
Origin Station: Xi'an International Port Station (China-Europe Railway Express hub, stable Central Asia services)
Route: Xi'an → Khorgos → Almaty, direct rail throughout
Estimated Transit: 15 days door-to-door
Loading Plan: Solar panels and storage batteries loaded in separate containers; battery containers equipped with temperature loggers
Customs Mode: Solar panels declared under general trade; lithium batteries declared as Class 9 dangerous goods with pre-arranged packaging certificates and railway transport condition appraisal
Highlights
Results
Delivered in 15 days with zero anomalies in battery transport, 100% temperature compliance, and no damage to solar panels. The client's project commenced on schedule.
"Lithium battery export to Central Asia involves stringent compliance requirements. Several logistics providers we consulted couldn't offer a complete solution. ZJD not only handled the dangerous goods packaging certificate and railway hazardous cargo approval, but also designed an intelligent co-loading plan for solar panels and batteries — saving on freight while maintaining safety. 15 days direct to Almaty with fully traceable temperature data. Highly professional."
