April 28, 2011 Category Alternative energy, Environment
The largest solar power plant in Tibet will become operational in May to help ease the region’s power shortages. The 30-megawatt solar photovoltaic generation project in Xigaze prefecture, about 3 kilometers north-west of Tibet’s second largest city Xigaze, is located 3,895 meters above sea level. The project would cost CNY800 million, funded solely by Linuo Power Group, a leading provider of solar photovoltaic power generation systems based in Shandong province. Construction of the first phase, costing CNY249 million and covering 30 hectares, began in May last year. It will generate up to 20.23 million kilowatt hours of electricity annually.
