4 FAQs about Energy storage ratio of Mengxi photovoltaic project

What is Mengxi blue ocean photovoltaic power station?

Mengxi Blue Ocean Photovoltaic Power Station, China's largest single-capacity photovoltaic power plant built on coal mining subsidence area, was conneted to grid and started operation on November 5. The project is expected to generate 5.7 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, sufficient to power two million households.

How much did China invest in a solar power plant?

The total project investment is RMB12 billion ($1.65 billion). The Mengxi Blue Ocean Photovoltaic Power Station is also special because it hosts the first large-scale outdoor solar testing base in the Gobi desert, helping China gather more data on setting up solar power plants in challenging environments.

Does China need a large-capacity solar power plant?

The increasing demand for clean energy and China's aim to reach net zero emissions by 2060 have increased renewable energy installations in the Asian country. However, large-capacity solar power plants require large tracts of land, which is difficult to achieve in densely populated regions with high electricity demand.

How much electricity can a solar power plant save a year?

The project is expected to generate 5.7 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, sufficient to power two million households. Each year, it can save 1.71 million tons of standard coal and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 4.7 million tons — equivalent to planting 62,700 hectares of trees.
