China advances with more energy, better technologies and new alliances. This new solar thermal investment with Spain’s Abengoa is part of the ambitious renewable energy program launched by the government of the People’s Republic of China with the purpose of reaching a solar thermal installed base of at least 27 GW in 2030, the largest …
A renewable energy development plan unveiled recently by the Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) the sole buyer of electricity in the Sultanate envisions the procurement of 3,050 megawatts (MW) of renewables-based capacity by 2025, representing 16 per cent of total electricity output by this timeframe. This compares with a minimum 10 per cent …
Lanzhou Dacheng Dunhuang 50 MW Molten Salt Fresnel Concentrated Solar Power Project was successfully connected to the gird at 17:50 p.m. on December 31, 2019, becoming the first demonstration Fresnel CSP project in China, and the world largest solar thermal power plant taking Fresnel CSP technology. China have seven large-scale Concentrated Solar Power projects with …
