At 11:00 on May 25, 2025, the solar receiver tower of the China Power Gonghe 1000MW photovoltaic and solar thermal power project was capped.
According to the introduction, the structure of the project's solar receiver tower is 178 meters high, and it adopts a reinforced concrete conical cylindrical structure with a gradually changing cross-section. The main body of the tower mostly adopts a straight-line shape.
It is reported that the project is located in the Hainan Ecological CSP Park in Gonghe County, Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. The designed installed capacity is 1000MW, consisting of a 900MW photovoltaic power station and a 100MW solar thermal power station. By optimizing the complementary power source scale ratio, the overall power quality is improved.
The 100MW CSP station is contracted and constructed by Northwest Engineering Corporation Limited, a member unit of the CSP. Dongfang Boiler CO., LTD.has won the bid for the 100MW CSP project's concentrated solar power collection and heat system and steam generator system. After the project is completed, the average annual power generation will be 130.78 million kWh. It will save about 39,400 tons of standard coal and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 108,300 tons per year.
