The World's Highest Photovoltaic Power Station Starts Construction

Recently, at the 5222m high altitude "life restricted zone", a pioneering "world's highest" photovoltaic power generation project - Xizang Huadian Shannan East Asia Duichaipeng 100000 kW photovoltaic power generation project was started by Kunming Institute in Caipeng Village, Shannan City, Xizang.

This photovoltaic power generation project is a key energy project carefully planned for special geographical environments and natural conditions, and is scheduled to be completed and put into use by October 31, 2024. The site elevation is between 5046 meters and 5228 meters, with a DC side installed capacity of 102.5574 kilowatt hours per square meter and a rated capacity of 100000 kilowatts.

This project not only bears the important task of providing clean and reliable energy for the local people, but also is another vivid interpretation of the Xizang spirit of "no fear of hardship, no lack of spirit of hypoxia, and higher altitude" by POWERCHINA Kunming Design&Research Institute.

The project team will strictly follow construction specifications and safety standards during construction, carefully organize construction, arrange progress reasonably, and ensure timely delivery of the project. At the same time, we will pay attention to ecological protection and minimize the impact of project construction on the high-altitude ecological environment. By adopting the latest efficient photovoltaic modules and intelligent monitoring systems, it is expected to improve power generation efficiency while reducing operation and maintenance costs.

After the project is put into operation, it will effectively reduce the consumption of traditional energy such as coal, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and make positive contributions to local environmental governance and ecological civilization construction. At the same time, the project will also drive local employment and promote economic development. This marks a solid step forward for the local area in the field of new energy, and also provides valuable experience and reference for energy development in other similar regions. At the same time, it will also become an eternal monument, engraved with the glorious chapter of the Tibetan people and builders working together and bravely challenging in extreme environments.
