Current situation and potential of photovoltaic power plant construction in northwestern China under the background of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality
aiming to explore the current status and future potential of photovoltaic power plant construction in northwest China under the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality,this article firstly introduces the relevant concepts of dual-carbons and its background,and then analyzes the construction and distribution of concentrated photovoltaic power plant in five provinces in northwest of China.The potential and environmental benefit of photovoltaic power generation in northwest of China are calculated.The research indicates that the centralized PV develops more rapidly in five northwestern provinces than that in the southeast because of their location and abundant solar energy resources.Secondly,the total power generation potential of the five provinces in Northwest China is 2.41 × 1014KW·h,the on-grid power generation is 1.85 × 1014KW·h,the income of potential electricity sales in the first year is 5.05 × 1017 yuan,and the total environmental benefit is 3.07 × 1012 yuan.Overall,the large-scale photovoltaic construction in the northwest region is of great significance to promote the coordinated economic development between the eastern and western regions,enhance energy supply capacity,help rural revitalization and even achieve the dual-carbon goal in the future.However,it is still necessary to make full use of idle desertification land resources and focus on solving the issues of energy storage technology and large-scale power transmission involved in large-scale concentrated photovoltaic power plant construction
