MENA to add 50GW of utility-scale solar by 2030--Seetao

[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

[China's first large-scale project for the recycling of new energy resources]
The first large-scale industrial project for the recycling of new energy resources in China has recently started construction in Jiuquan, Gansu. The project focuses on the recycling and disposal of retired wind power equipment. After completion, it has the ability to recycle and dispose of 300 sets of wind turbines with an annual capacity of 2 megawatts or less. The construction period is 6 months, and the plan is to complete the project in April 2027 and start trial production in May.Editor/Cheng Liting
