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 contrast, smaller solar power plants (<100MW) are densely scattered in areas closer to urban centers in central and eastern China, with distances ranging from 0 to 50 km, though only several small and remote solar power plants are distributed >50 km from urban areas in the southwest region of China such as Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan.
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.
3. Dau Tieng Photovoltaic Solar Power Project (500 MW) in Vietnam is the biggest solar project in Southeast Asia and the world's largest semi-immersed photovoltaic project.
PV still has significant potential for further development in China, particularly in regions abundant in solar energy resources like northwest China (Lin et al.,2022). Driven by the continued decarbonization of energy structure, the growth of PV installations is expected to keep a rapid pace in the future (Ovaitt et al.,2022).
