[MENA to add 50GW of utility-scale solar by 2030]The MENA country plans to add 49.5GW of installed utility-scale solar capacity by 2030. With more than 30GW of development or construction projects announced between Oman, Morocco and Kuwait, these jurisdictions will lead the region in utility-scale solar PV this decade. All announced solar and wind projects will add more than five times the current renewable energy capacity in the MENA region, with utility-scale solar capacity currently standing at 7.4GW. In addition, Oman also plans to build a 12.5GW solar photovoltaic project, which will be operational by 2038. Editor/Xing Wentao
On May 23, 2026, the Jinghang 200MW/400MWh independent energy storage project in Shanxi Comprehensive Reform Zone, undertaken by Anhui Branch, started construction in Yangqu Industrial Park. The project adopts an outdoor integrated cabin layout, using lithium iron phosphate batteries, which are connected to a 220KV boosting station after PCS inverter boosting. This project is a key project serving Shanxi's energy revolution. Editor/Cheng Liting
On May 23, 2026, the Guizhou Mianxi Wind Farm project developed and invested by Runjian Co., Ltd. started construction, with a total installed capacity of 100MW and an expected annual power generation of 185 million kilowatt hours. The annual carbon dioxide emissions reduction is about 100100 tons, which will provide support for the optimization of regional energy structure and the coordination of computing and electricity. At present, Runjian Group has a national wind and solar storage and transportation capacity of over 33GW, and an engineering construction capacity of over 7GW, continuously expanding its new energy landscape.
