Jingxiu District Solar Power Generation System

Can Xinjiang meet its annual electricity demand?

Therefore, a progress level of 25% in Xinjiang was fully capable of satisfying Xinjiang’s annual electricity demand. In terms of PV power generation, 2.14 × 10 6 GWh of PV power generation is equivalent to 6.48 × 10 8 tce of coal combustion for coal-fired power generation.

Is Xinjiang suitable for PV power generation?

Few studies have made a more comprehensive assessment of the overall PV power generation potential in Xinjiang. Xinjiang has a variety of landscapes, a slightly less developed economy, and a lack of water resources. Indicators for suitability assessments that have been used in other regions may not be suitable to apply in Xinjiang.

What is Jingxiu District?

Jingxiu District ( simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ; pinyin: Jìngxiù Qū) is a district of Baoding, Hebei, China. Before 2015 May, the district was known as Xinshi District ( ; ; Xīnshì Qū ). Jingxiu District is divided into 5 subdistricts, 2 towns and 4 townships.

Is Xinjiang a good place for solar energy?

Compared with the solar energy resources of other provinces in China, Xinjiang is one of the richest regions in China in terms of solar energy resources. In particular, the solar radiation in the south of Xinjiang is similar to that in Tibet [ 55 ].

Does Xinjiang receive more solar radiation than lower regions?

The observed sunshine duration data from stations in Xinjiang (2000–2014) were calculated and interpolated. This study used the average annual sunshine duration (SSD) as a criterion. Elevated regions receive more solar radiation than lower regions, but building PV power plants in elevated regions costs a lot [ 34 ].

What is the installed capacity of solar power in China?

The installed capacity of solar power in China had grown steadily. The newly installed capacity of solar power was 30.3GW (including an increase of 200MW for CSP), and the cumulative installed capacity had reached 204.74GW (including 440 MW of CSP).
