6 FAQs about [China Solar Thermal Research Institute]

Does China need thermal energy storage?

China required from the first demonstration phase that each CSP project must include thermal energy storage, marking the first recognition globally of the value of the low cost and longevity of thermal energy storage. As a power station storing solar energy thermally, CSP operates like a gas plant to supply grid services like rolling reserves.

How many large-scale solar thermal power projects are there in China?

At present, there are 8 large-scale solar thermal power projects in China that are connected to the grid, and the usage of each project basically coincides with the shipments of equipment component suppliers, so the sales of key components can be seen based on the usage of the projects.

How many solar thermal power stations are there in China?

According to the China Solar Thermal Alliance, the eight solar thermal power stations put into operation between 2018 and 2020 used a total of 6,912,922 square meters of reflective mirrors, 214,523 tons of molten salt, 102,300 vacuum tube receivers, and 10,500 tons of thermal oil (sorted by energy storage hours in the table below).

What is solar thermal power?

Solar thermal power is a system that converts solar energy into thermal energy and generates electricity through the process of thermal power conversion. The solar thermal power industry chain system can be divided into research and development, design, manufacturing, installation, operation and maintenance, etc.

When did photovoltaic research start in China?

Photovoltaic research in China began in 1958 with the development of China's first piece of monocrystalline silicon. Research continued with the development of solar cells for space satellites in 1968. The Institute of Semiconductors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences led this research for a year, stopping after batteries failed to operate.

Where is powerchina Qinghai Gonghe 50MW solar thermal power project located?

PowerChina Qinghai Gonghe 50MW Solar Thermal Power Project is located in the ecological solar power park of Hainan Prefecture, Qinghai Province, covering a total area of 2.12 square kilometers, with 30,016 heliostats of 20 square meters each, a tower height of 193 meters, and a receiver center elevation of 210 meters.
