China continues its relentless expansion of solar power capacity, now home to the world’s largest solar plant. The 2.2 gigawatt facility spans an area of over 25 square kilometers in the Gobi desert. This $3 billion flagship project demonstrates the epic scale of renewable infrastructure developing worldwide.
Projects 1. Noor Phase III CSP Project (150 MW) in Morocco, a central tower Concentrating Solar Power project, has the largest unit capacity in the world.
The plant, situated in the Yalong River Basin of the Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Garze in southwest China's Sichuan Province's Yajiang County, will cover the needs of 700,000 households for a whole year with its annual generating capacity of 2 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh).
The world’s largest solar farm in Xinjiang is part of China’s megabase project, a plan to install 455 GW of wind and solar. The megabase projects are sited in sparsely populated, resource-rich areas and send their generated energy to major urban centers, such as on China’s eastern seaboard.
Argentina Cauchari Jujuy Solar PV Project (315 MW) is the world's highest large-scale photovoltaic power station. During the first Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, under the witness of the heads of both China and Argentina, a cooperation document of the Cauchari Solar PV Project was signed. 7.
In a move that once again proves its commitment to renewable energy, China has begun construction on its first large-scale commercial solar plant out in the sun-dreched expanse of the Gobi Desert.
