On June 16, 2026, the CGN Golmud 350 MW solar thermal demonstration project officially started construction, breaking two global records: the largest single unit thermal storage capacity and the largest mirror field area. The project is equipped with a 15 hour molten salt thermal storage device with a thermal storage capacity of 11747 megawatt hours. The estimated annual power generation is 1 billion kilowatt hours, equivalent to saving 320000 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 860000 tons. It will significantly enhance the new energy consumption and peak shaving capacity of Qinghai power grid. Editor/Cheng Liting
