Dunhuang, a 2,000-year-old city in northwest China, is now at the forefront of China's green energy drive. It's home to the nation's largest photothermal power plant, capable of storing solar energy for uninterrupted power supply. The power plant boasts a massive 100-megawatt installed capacity.
China's largest molten salt solar thermal power plant is situated in Dunhuang, northwest China's Gansu Province. By receiving sunlight and heating up the molten salt, it can constantly generate electricity. The power station generates 390 million kilowatts of electricity per year, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 350,000 tonnes.
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.
It should also be noted that with the rapid development of China’s PV industry, increasingly more eastern provinces built large-scale PV power stations, including Jiangsu, Anhui and Shandong Province. Areas of PV power stations for each province of China.
According to our dataset, China has a total of 2467.7 km 2 ground-mounted PV power stations in 2020. The top three largest provinces refer to Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and Qinghai, whose PV area ratio are 14.92%, 12.49% and 11.26%, respectively, with a total of nearly 40% of all the PV power stations of China.
Although some researchers released several PV power station maps, most only met a medium resolution of 30 meters 9, 10. There thus still lacks a national map of China’s PV power stations with a higher spatial resolution (i.e., 10 meters) that could provide a global understanding of PV’s spatial deployment patterns.
