Why Nujiang doesn t build solar power generation

Why is solar power a problem in northwest China?

Most of the solar power in Northwest China is generated inutility-scale solar power plants, which led to power production that exceeded the targeted level in recent years. At the same time, the local demand for electricity was not growing enough to match with the rise of power supply.

Why is solar energy rejected in Gansu province?

According to the northwest China Energy Regulatory Bureau of National Energy Administration, by 2015, 60.4% of rejected solar energy in Gansu province was caused by the limited capacity of the power grid transmissions .

What is the installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in Xinjiang?

Especially, the cumulative installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation of Xinjiang reached 9.08 GW , which is the highest one in the northwest of China. Table 4 displays the statistics of photovoltaic power generation in the northwest of China in details.

Can China expand solar power generating capacity?

In fact, the Chinese central government had already actively tried to expand the solar electricity generating capacity in China back in 2009, through several subsidized projects, one of which was the infamous Golden Sun project ().

What is the future of solar energy in China?

China has already made major commitments to transitioning its energy systems towards renewables, especially power generation from solar, wind and hydro sources. However, there are many unknowns about the future of solar energy in China, including its cost, technical feasibility and grid compatibility in the coming decades.

Why does China have a large-scale Solar Energy Curtailment problem?

Because China is of a large amount of the installed solar capacity, the existing large-scale solar energy curtailment problem have greatly affected the development of the solar power industry (e.g. the investors' profits) and the long-term development of the China's clean energy policy.
