The world's largest thin film solar power station built

The world's largest single-chip thin-film solar ground power station - 50 megawatts of Qinghai Hainan thin-film solar ground power station was built. The move marks the era of large-scale application of a new generation of thin film solar technology in China.

According to Li Hejun, director of the board of directors of Hanergy Holding Group, thin film and flexibility represent the development trend of the photovoltaic industry. With the introduction of national incentives for distributed power generation, distributed power generation represented by photovoltaic building integration will become the mainstream of photovoltaic applications. He introduced that thin-film photovoltaic modules have the advantages of low temperature coefficient, good low-light power generation, low energy consumption, no pollution, flexibility and low light angle requirements, and are most suitable for the technical needs of distributed solar power generation. According to the statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics, he predicts that by 2020, China's urban and rural housing construction area will be approximately 89 billion square meters. If 15% of the area of ​​the east, south, and west walls, 20% of the roof area, and 10% of the photoelectric conversion rate (the current highest mass production conversion rate has reached 15.5%), the country has an installed capacity of about 1 billion kilowatts. Calculated on the average of 1300 electricity hours per year of solar energy, it can replace 30% of the annual electricity demand of the whole society and reduce CO2 emissions by 20%.

According to reports, Hanergy’s Hainan station in Qinghai, which was built in the past, creatively introduced the mode of “grazing and complementing each other”, that is, planting pasture in photovoltaic power plants, realizing “one water and two uses” and “one use of grass and two uses”. Because photovoltaic power plants are mostly built on idle land such as Gobi and deserts, this measure enables power plants to not only produce clean energy, but also play a role in preventing wind and sand, which is conducive to the improvement of the environment and climate.

As the world's largest thin-film solar energy company, Hanergy has signed more than 10 GW (10 million kilowatts) of ground-based photovoltaic power plants in the world. Its domestic and foreign power plant projects have also been completed and connected to the grid.
