First Chinese solar station in the molten salt on full power

China's first solar power plant, which is used as a coolant molten salt successfully entered the design capacity.

This station is situated in Dunhuang that Gansu and is designed for the production of 100 MW.

Almost daily test showed that all the systems are operating normally, and the station has established a new record for power generation in 1.8 Mill. kilowatt-hours of the day and night period.

In this case, all test measurements showed that the station is operating in a normal mode.

This station is the first in China, which manufactures solar thermal energy, and it was built by Beijing Shouhang IHW Resources Saving Technology Co Ltd. In this case, the realization of such a large project was spent about 3 billion yuan, corresponding to 433 million US dollars.

The principle of operation of the station entered in the following: 12 000 mirrors focus solar flux on a special receiver, where the heating and melting salts.

Thus, in the molten salt energy storage takes place, which allows to produce electricity not only during the day but also at night. In this case, the station is designed to produce 390 million. kWh.

Development of such a clean electricity by calculations can reduce the emissions of harmful components into the atmosphere (including carbon dioxide) of 350 000 tons per year. This has a positive effect on the overall environmental situation in the region and the world as a whole.

China is one of the recognized leaders in the development of alternative sources of electric energy.

This is not the last such plant in China and the authorities intend to invest by 2021 renewable electricity industry is worth more than 2.5 trillion. Yuan, and by 2030, the State Council PRC prescribed requirement increase the share of green power to 20% of the total output.

According to most scientists in the near future if not seriously reduce greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere, it can lead to disastrous consequences, so it is important to maintain and develop alternative energy because it allows you to develop modern humanity without compromising the native planet.
