Future Energy: China leads world in solar power production
By Chris Baraniuk Technology reporter 22 June 2017

Image captionChina may consume more electricity than any other country, but it is also now the world's biggest solar energy producer
Ten years ago, Geof Moser had just graduated with a master's degree in solar energy from Arizona State University - but he didn't feel much opportunity lay at his feet in his home country.
So he headed for China.
"The solar industry was fairly small and there weren't a lot of jobs," he remembers. "Just a few for installation." But the Chinese government had big ambitions to expand solar and Moser saw his chance.
He spent some years accumulating knowledge about the Chinese solar industry, before co-founding Symtech Solar, which designs solar panel systems using Chinese parts.
Market access
The idea is to make it easy for organisations outside China to access components without the hassle of having to source and assemble lots of different parts.

Image captionGeof Moser took his solar energy expertise to China because of the opportunities in the industry
"You don't want to buy a car door or a car engine, you want to buy a car," he explains.
Symtech now has a portfolio of small projects dotted around the world and it is hoping to increase installations in the Middle East, thanks to a new office in Oman.
Moser isn't the only US entrepreneur who turned to China. Alex Shoer, of Seeder, helped to launch a business that brings solar panels to the roofs of buildings within the country.
He deals with foreign businesses who, say, want to make their Beijing office a little greener. The firm says it has so far erected three megawatts' worth of solar installations, with another 28 megawatts on the way for various clients.

Image captionChina installed more than 34 gigawatts of solar capacity in 2016
"We will source the capital to finance, pay for the whole project and then sell the power at a discount," Shoer says. Again, the model relies on sourcing the right parts at a favourable cost.
These kind of installations are known as "distributed generation" projects, in which electricity is produced on a small scale, at or very near to a specific point of consumption.
Within China, distributed generation is growing at an extraordinary rate, driven in large part by farmers who use the panels to power agricultural equipment that might not be connected to the grid.

Image captionChina's mega projects have become possible thanks to the rapidly falling cost of solar cells
Shoer comments that he was attracted by Beijing's commitment to the solar industry. For years it has encouraged local authorities to do what they can to boostproduction, research and development.
Renewables growth
China's rapid expansion of renewable energy facilities has since caught headlines around the world.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the country installed more than 34 gigawatts of solar capacity in 2016 - more than double the figure for the US and nearly half of the total added capacity worldwide that year.
Early figures for 2017 show China has added another eight gigawatts in the first quarter alone.
"It's a huge market," says Heymi Bahar at the IEA. Most of the world's solar cells are made in China and Taiwan, he adds - more than 60%.
The impressive scale doesn't stop there. The largest solar farm in the world - Longyangxia Dam Solar Park, all 30sq km of it - is a Chinese project. And the country recently opened the world's largest floating solar farm, in Huainan, Anhui Province.

Image captionChina has the world's largest floating solar power plant
It has been constructed over an old coal mine, which over the years had filled with rainwater. Sungrow, the Chinese firm that provided solar cells for the venture, says its system automatically monitors current and voltage generated by the cells, along with humidity, which can affect their efficiency.
Because of the abundant water nearby, cleaning the panels - an endless task for solar farmers - will be easier, according to those behind the facility.
These mega projects have become possible, and indeed more common, thanks to the rapidly falling cost of solar cells.
"What we were all hoping for 20 years ago when the idea of cheap solar was just a dream, was that someone would come into this on an industrial scale and drive down the cost," recalls Charles Donovan, at Imperial College Business School.
"That is exactly what China has done."
Image copyrightGETTY IMAGES
Image captionDespite China's impressive progress, only 1% of its power comes from solar energy
But today, solar energy production accounts for just 1% of China's total energy demand. A huge 66% of demand still comes from coal, something that the country's National Energy Administration wants to change drastically by 2050 - not least because of China's well-known air pollution problems.
But by that key date of 2050, a very different mix of energies could be powering China, should some projections become reality. One government report even suggested that renewables could supply 86% of the country's energy needs, with solar providing around a third of that.
Can China do it? According to one expert observer, the answer is, "maybe".
"What China is trying to do is rationalise a very large, fast growing system," explains Jeffrey Ball at Stanford University's Center for Energy Policy and Finance. Ball is the lead author of a recent report that details China's success as an innovator in the solar panel industry.
Lofty ambitions
But as Ball points out, the revolution has not been without teething issues. For one thing, Chinese subsidies, which some argue are unsustainable, have not always been smoothly administered. The "feed-in tariff", for example, often offered to solar companies that generate electricity, has sometimes been paid late.
"The government is often a year or more late in delivering that revenue - that wreaks havoc with the financials on a project," says Ball.
Image copyrightGETTY IMAGES
Image captionChina has recently cut the value of the subsidies it gives to solar power producers
The value of subsidies has recently been cut, too. What's more, China's large solar farms are largely in less densely populated areas in the west of the country, far from population centres like Beijing or Shanghai, in the east.
Building extra grid capacity to transfer it is time-consuming and expensive. This leads to a problem known as curtailment - a solar farm produces, say, 20 megawatts of electricity but can only find buyers for 15 megawatts.
More from Future Energy
"Depending on who you talk to in the provinces that have by far the largest amount of solar production, curtailment rates are 30% and in some cases significantly higher than 30% - that's extraordinary and that's a real problem," explains Ball.
Whether China can achieve its lofty ambitions for renewable energy remains to be seen - but it has certainly proved its ability to foster a world-leading solar industry. For US entrepreneurs like Geof Moser, that's enough to propel his own business towards further growth for now.
"The reality is that renewable energy is very cheap - especially solar energy," he says. "And the reason is China."

True!
India is indulging in solar power too, but as a consumer and not a producer.
India imports
While the China is cow, India/Modi buys its milk.
ROFOL to the hilt at 10th pass myopic Modi who hides his degree!
Against China, India has no class. Period

China is Building Carbon Capturing Plants to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Author Dom Galeon Editor Abby Norman June 20, 2017
China has started construction on the first of eight large-scale carbon capture and storage plants, as part of the country's efforts to decrease the country's carbon footprint. China is also leading the world in terms of the use of renewable energy.
A Sense of Responsibility
As one of the world’s largest countries, China is also one of the world’s largest producers of greenhouse or planet-warming emissions. The country isn’t getting behind on efforts to change that status, though, as it’s now leading the fight against climate change. The most recent is a plan to open eight large-scale, carbon-capture storage facilities, construction on the first of which is already underway.
The Yanchang Integrated Carbon Capture and Storage Project, located in the Shaanxi Province, will be China’s first investment in a facility that turns carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from coal into gas fuel plants. Once fully operational, it would capture about 400,00 to 800,000 tons of CO2 every year, according to AFR Weekend. That’s about the same reduction that could be expected by taking 80,000 cars off the streets for a year.
Every Effort Counts
Carbon-capture and storage (CCS) technology has recently been in the headlines, with the opening of the world’s first commercial carbon capture plant in Switzerland earlier this month. A similar facility is expected to go live later this year in Houston, Texas. This approach to solving the climate problem attempts to make fossil fuel-based plants cleaner.
It’s not the only proposed solution out there, though: recently, there has been a surge in renewable energy sources, as evidence by the growing reliance on solar and wind in a number of countries. These are also becoming a more economic solution in many parts of the world, as well as providing a wealth of job opportunities. CCS plants, on the other hand, may prove to be too costly for some countries.
For China, every effort counts. Aside from its investment in CCS, the country is also working on increasing its renewable energy sources — it’s already the world’s largest producer of solar energy — as well as using more electric vehicles in a number of its cities. China is looking to decrease its CO2 emissions from 2016 to about one percent this year, according to a forecast by its National Energy Administration.

“It’s one of eight large-scale CCS projects — in varying stages of evaluation and subject to approval — that China is considering,” Tony Zhang, a senior adviser in Australia-based Global CCS Institute, told the Digital Journal. The non-profit institute provided China with technical and advisory support on the project.

Reading the accomplishments of China's internet companies in many fields of ITC, the vision of China's leadership to initially protect China's nascent internet industry from unfair competition and monopoly by foreign established business appears to be more amazing.
No developing country in the world is immune to the monopolistic control of a Western (mostly US) internet company and they lack competitive home grown business. China, thankfully, has avoided failing into the trap of fake neo-liberal free trade crusade at the time the corporate US was at its pinnacle of strength.
Now, they scramble to stop Alibaba to buy MoneyGram on phony grounds, when their own creation comes back to bite.
China (or, corporate China) should not be over altruistic. Speak softly, like Ma Yun does, but act viciously. In the end, there pie is not big enough and the West has already taken a bigger share than it deserves.

China tests its first intercity train powered by new energy
2017-07-04 13:43
People's Daily Online Editor: Gu Liping
(Yuan Dan/Changchun Daily)
China's first intercity train that is powered by new energy is being tested in Inner Mongolia, said the developer, CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd.
Able to shift its power source between the grid and batteries, the train can cover a range of over 200 kilometers using its off-grid power source. The technology allows the train to run on tracks of different standards.
The train will be powered by the grid and will use its batteries in areas where power is unavailable. Its top speed could reach 160 kilometers per hour.
The development of the train is significant because it can play a role in China's accelerating urbanization and regional integration, according to experts.
Not only does the new train combine the functions of high-speed and light-rail trains, but experts think it will give China greater voice in terms of international standards.
China's electric railway network has grown in recent years. But natural reserves and tourist sites also limit that expansion because of possible damage to the natural landscape and even regional ecologies. Using its off-grid power source, the new-energy train can cross those areas.
Thanks to new sound-proof materials and optimized sound insulation, the train noise is reduced. In addition, the train offers an onboard wireless networks.
The new-energy train could also play an important role in countries along the Belt and Road, experts said. Some of these countries are still using single track railways with complicated signal systems for both passengers and freights. New-energy trains would improve transportation efficiency and quality without constructing new railways or changing signal systems.

HK group to pluck 5gW from the sun
Is this pic real or fake?
By ZHENG XIN | China Daily | Updated: 2017-02-15 10:11
Editor's Note: China aims to increase the share of non-fossil fuel in its overall energy to more than 15 percent by 2020 and to 20 percent by 2030, according to the 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20) for Renewable Energy released by the National Energy Administration in January. Renewable energy companies are key to meeting the targets. To find out whether or not they are on the right course, China Daily interviewed top officials of several companies engaged in solar power, geothermal, wind power and biomass. What we get to see are their ambitious development and overseas expansion plans against the backdrop of China's commitment to saving natural resources and cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
China Merchants New Energy Group Ltd has promised to set up 100 solar power stations in the next five years, with a total installed capacity of 5gW to promote green energy along the Belt and Road trading routes.
The Hong Kong-based company also aims to offer countries along the Belt and Road clean energy projects integrated with photovoltaic, wind power, water and electricity power solutions, it said.
Most countries along the routes are developing countries and they are faced with unbalanced industrial structures, said chief executive Li Yuan.
Li said: "For them, infrastructure and energy are two key areas to optimize allocation of resources. Our projects can assist these countries to accelerate replacement of traditional energy and lower energy costs."
"Panda Solar Power Plants," shaped in the image of a giant panda, are innovative power stations combining new energy with high technology. The aim is to promote youth engagement in promoting world green and sustainable energy development in Italy, Turkey, India, Sri Lanka and other countries along the route.
These power plants will help countries along the route to popularize green power and promote Chinese brands in these countries, it said.
A 100 mW Panda Solar Power Plant could provide 3.2 billion kWh green power in 25 years, which is equal to offsetting 1.056 million tons of coal and 2.74 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions, according to the CMNE.
The CMNE acquired six grid-connected photovoltaic power plant projects in the UK this year. With an installed gross capacity of 82.4 mW, this is the first new energy acquisition project that Chinese enterprises would complete in the United Kingdom following Brexit.
China has the largest capacity for photovoltaic energy in the world, 77.42 million kW at the end of 2016, thanks to 34.54 million kW of capacity added in the year, the National Energy Administration stated.
China's photovoltaic capacity and its increase in 2016 were the biggest in the world, with the country's solar plants generated 66.2 billion kW hours of power last year, accounting for 1 percent of the country's total power generation.
China is to expand its photovoltaic capabilities, adding over 110 million kW of solar power by 2020.

The World’s First Panda Power Plant Officially Connected to Grid
(Datong China, 29 June 2017) Hong Kong listing company under China Merchants New Energy and the world's leading eco-development solutions provider, Panda Green Energy Group Limited (00686.HK, “Panda Green Energy”, formerly known as “United Photovoltaics Group Limited”) is pleased to announce that the world’s first Panda Power Plant in Datong Shanxi was officially connected to the grid.
Datong Panda Power Plant has an aggregate install capacity of 100MW, of which the first phase 50MW project was successfully connected to grid. Panda Green Energy launched the innovative project to construct Panda Power Plant in May 2016, and signed a cooperation agreement with the United Nations Development Program on 1 September. In the same year on 20 November, the construction of Datong Panda Power Plant officially commenced. On 14 May this year at the “Belt and Road” Forum for International Cooperation in Beijing, the Panda Power Plant project was incorporated into the Action Plan on Jointly Promoting “Belt and Road” Construction signed by the Chinese government and the United Nations, becoming the important landing projects of China’s “Belt and Road” initiative.
Datong Panda Power Plant is the starting point of the Panda Green Energy’s global layout on Panda Power Plant project, which is of great significance to the global green energy application, green concept communication and energy transformation. A 100MW Panda Power Plant can provide 3.2 billion kWh of green electricity in 25 years, equivalent to saving 1.056 million tons of coal, or reducing 2.74 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions. In the next five years, Panda Green Energy will carry out the “Panda 100 Program”, build Panda Power Plants along the “Belt and Road” countries and areas, and bring in the integrated multi-energy green ecological solutions.
