[SMM News] 370 MW! Zheneng Group's Largest Single PV Power Generation Project Connected to Grid
At 16:38 on May 29, Zheneng Group's largest single PV power generation project—the 370 MW PV Power Generation Project of Zheneng Aksu Thermal Power Co., Ltd.—was officially connected to the grid and commenced power generation. The successful commissioning of the project marks a solid step forward for the group in accelerating the construction of "desert, gobi, and wasteland" new energy bases, injecting new momentum into local power supply and energy transition.

The project covers an area of approximately 11,000 mu, with an installed capacity of 370 MW. It includes the construction of one 220 kV PV collection station and a 60-kilometer transmission line to the 750 kV substation in Aksu, built simultaneously. According to estimates, upon full operation, the project's annual power generation will meet the electricity needs of 300,000 households, reduce annual consumption of standard coal by approximately 230,000 mt, and cut carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 630,000 mt.

It is understood that the National Energy Administration has officially approved the power source allocation plan for the "Qaidam Desert Base (East Golmud) Base". The planned construction scale of the power source projects at this base is 17.44 million kilowatts, including 10 million kilowatts of photovoltaic power, 5 million kilowatts of wind power, 2.64 million kilowatts of coal-fired power, 0.1 million kilowatts of solar thermal power, and 1.5 million kilowatts (for 4 hours) of electrochemical energy storage. The total investment in the projects is about 86 billion yuan. The new energy will be transmitted to Guangxi through the "Qinghai-Guangxi DC" UHV power transmission project. Currently, significant progress has been made in the preliminary work of the "Qinghai-Guangxi DC" project, w

[SMM PV News] Armenia Hits 1.1 GW Solar Capacity,
Armenia’s cumulative solar capacity has surged to 1.1 GW following the addition of approximately 615 MW in 2025. This rapid expansion has pushed solar's share of electricity generation to around 15%, effectively meeting the country's 2030 target years ahead of schedule. The growth is heavily driven by a net-metering scheme supporting over 50,000 autonomous producers (totaling 650 MW), though the government ended loan subsidies for rooftop solar in July to shift focus toward battery storage.
