5 Frequently Asked Questions about “China looks at solar thermal equipment at the Solar Energy 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.

Where is the solar heating system based on cross-seasonal heat storage?

For the on site observation and practice, the trainees will visit the solar heating system based on cross-seasonal heat storage of IEECAS located in Huangdi (Yellow Emperor) City in Hebei Province, where is about 120 kilometers away from IEECAS.

Why did China offer a lower tariff for tower CSP projects?

To activate the undeveloped pilot projects, the National Energy Administration subsequently offered a slightly lower tariff if any could connect to the grid by 2021, to encourage confident startups like Cosin and Shouhang that emerged as major Tower CSP developers in China, to grab some of these lost opportunities.

Which Chinese power plants have a 50 MW heliostat?

Three of these were Tower, and all at 50 MW: LuNeng Haixi and Power China Qinghai Gonghe in Qinghai, and in Xinjiang, CEEC/ Hami which pioneered another SolarPACES Innovation Award-winner, the Stellio heliostat. The fourth was Lanzhou's 50 MW Fresnel at Daching.

Where is Cosin solar's 'beam-down Tower' project located?

Project details: NREL. The initial Beam-down Tower project was built in the demonstration phase at 50 MW near the city of Suzhou (Jiuquan) in Gansu Province. This photo taken in November 2022 shows Cosin Solar's Tower CSP (100 MW) project in construction in Gansu Province for the 100 MW Jinta Zhonguang CSP project. (details at NREL.)
