Unlike the sprawling solar parks already familiar across the Gulf, this facility is being built with one crucial addition: storage on a scale the world has never seen. 2 gigawatts of solar panels will capture the desert sun by day.
China installed a record 315 GW (AC) of new solar capacity in 2025, lifting cumulative installed PV capacity to 1. 2 TW and pushing non-fossil power sources past thermal generation for the first time.
Recently, a subsidiary of the China Green Development Investment Group has inaugurated the world's largest solar plant, a 3. 5-gigawatt operation located in the Xinjiang region, as reported by PV Magazine.
A 500 MW / 2,000 MWh standalone BESS in Tongliao, Inner Mongolia, has begun commercial operation following a five-month construction period, reflecting China's accelerating rollout of large-scale storage to firm and integrate high penetrations of wind and solar generation.
Wind and solar surpassed a quarter of China's electricity generation for the first time in April 2025. China is the largest market in the world for both photovoltaics (PV) and solar thermal energy. Its PV capacity crossed 1,000 gigawatts (one.
