The solar farm was built by China Construction Eighth Engineering Division Corp. and Power Construction Corp. of China. Midong features 5.26 million 650-W monocrystalline bifacial double-glass photovoltaic (PV) panels.
Midong, by the numbers and because of its importance to the global solar industry, is a worthy recipient of a POWER Top Plant Award in the renewable energy category. Midong reportedly required an investment of 15.45 billion Chinese yuan (about $2.15 billion). It's expected to produce about 6.09 TWh of electricity annually.
The facility's infrastructure includes more than 1.23 million supporting piles, five 220-kV booster stations, and more than 208 kilometers (129 miles) of transmission lines, according to CGDG. But those numbers provide only some of the reasons Midong is important to the global solar power industry.
Today, covering an area of 609 square kilometers, this solar power base boasts a power generation capacity of 8,430 megawatts, making it the largest in the world, according to Qeyang, deputy director of the administration committee of the Hainan prefectural green energy industry park.
It has become competitive to collocate VRE with CSP and build a controllable and cost-efficient 100% renewable generation base, especially in areas abundant with solar energy, such as
