Photovoltaic projects generate over 4 bln kWh of electricity in China's Qinghai

Staff members inspect power storage facilities at the joint complex for the Huadian Delingha 1-gigawatt solar energy storage project and 3-megawatt photovoltaic hydrogen production project in Delingha, northwest China's Qinghai Province, July 8, 2026.

The two projects have generated more than 4 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, according to China Huadian Corporation, the operator of the duo.

The projects combine solar power generation, green hydrogen production, and energy storage into a single complex, an approach that helps address the intermittent nature of solar power and boost renewable energy use in desert areas. (Xinhua/Wang Yan)
