The project has been in safe operation for more than 2 years since its official handover on December 5, 2018. A total of more than 400 MWh of electricity has been generated, with 0 kg of carbon dioxide emitted, contributing to a reduction of 400 tons in carbon dioxide emission. These figures point to the success of this project as the first domestically developed and designed solution for a pastoral complex microgrid system, where generation, grid, load, and storage are integrated together.

The project drew domestic and foreign attention since its operation. Internationally, it was inspected by UN-HABITAT on-site and developers were interviewed by UN Environment. At home, the project was praised by the Market Construction Department of the Ministry of Commerce, and also received field investigations by a number of government officials and companies, including leaders of the Shanghai Municipal Government and the Jiangsu Provincial Government, as well as China Datang Corporation Ltd., Jingmei Group, China Shenhua Energy Company Limited, and China Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Group. The project was not only covered by more than 54 media agencies including Jiefang Daily and China Energy News, but also won the Top 10 Energy Internet Project Award from the latter.
