China launched major solar thermal plants in Gansu’s desert, boosting clean energy and reducing reliance on imports.
China has launched large-scale solar thermal power projects in Gansu’s Gobi Desert, including the Jinta 100,000-kilowatt molten salt tower plant, which uses over 25,000 heliostats to generate 24/7 clean electricity by storing heat.
A second project, the Yumen linear Fresnel plant, uses reflective mirrors for similar results.
Both are part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan to expand renewable energy in deserts, with Gansu leveraging its vast unused land and solar potential.
The nation’s solar capacity grew by 240 million kilowatts in the first nine months of 2025, driven by domestic tech advances and policy support, reducing import dependence and boosting industries like steel and glass.
