The first Molten Salt Tower CSP Plant in the China whose exceeded the designed production
One of China's first batch of CSP Demonstration Projects, entitled as National Strategic and Emerging Industry Key Project by NDRC (Chinese National Development and Reform Commission).
Located in Delingha, Qinghai Province, is a molten salt tower CSP plant configured with 27,135 sets of 20m² heliostat. The designed electricity output is 146 GWh/year, which meets power demand of 80,000 households, saves 46,000 tons standard coal and reduces 121,000 tons CO2 emission every year.
The plant started construction in Mar. 2017, was synchronized to the grid on Dec. 30, 2018 and reached full-load operation on Apr. 17, 2019.
