China has just turned on a world-first solar thermal power plant in the Gobi Desert, a move that could change the way solar energy is produced. This overhead aerial view captures the vast array of heliostat mirrors surrounding the central receiver tower of a large concentrated solar thermal power plant. By Captain Wang / Shutterstock.
[pdf] A 605 megawatt (MW) project in Germany has claimed the title of Europe's largest solar farm, bumping a PV plant in Spain out of the top spot. The Witznitz Solar Farm near Leipzig, which is not state-subsidized, is owned by German investment firm HANSAINVEST Real Assets. The project spans 500 hectares and operates under a power purchase agreement (PPA) with Shell Energy Europe. The Witznitz Energy Park, with an installed output of 650 MWp, is connected to the 50Hertz transmission grid. In a double first for a solar power plant, the facility injects electricity directly at extra-high voltage while. . The cluster consists of five solar projects with a total installed capacity of 263 MW.
