Well-known petroleum countries do not do, to build the world's largest photovoltaic power station

the united Arab emirates (uae) is located in the Middle East, is rich in oil and gas resources, proven reserves are seventh in the world. But it is a country that has recently announced that to build the world's largest single photovoltaic power station, and will be ready to say goodbye to the last drop of oil.

hydropower company recently announced that the united Arab emirates (uae) has completed the world's largest single photovoltaic power station the united Arab emirates ABU dhabi AlDhafra photovoltaic power generation project bidding work. ABU dhabi national energy company's chief executive, said: 'the large size and low electricity prices proved from national level to promote renewable energy ( Solar energy) The feasibility of the industry development, AlDhafra project will become our pilot project in the field of energy. '

output could meet the demand of about 160000 homes

AlDhafra after the completion of the project will become the world's largest single photovoltaic power station. According to official estimates, ABU dhabi energy company operations after the completion of the project, the power will be able to meet the demand of about 160000 households in the united Arab emirates, ABU dhabi's pv installed gross capacity and increase to 3. 2 gw, each year more than 3. 6 million tons of carbon emissions can be reduced, equivalent to removing 720000 cars on the road of automobile emissions.

not only that, the project cost is a new low global renewable energy power generation costs. The project cost is only 13. $5 / mw, less than 2019 Portugal a solar projects in 16. Record of $44 / mw.

AlDhafra, after the completion of the project will promote the ABU dhabi's energy transformation and sustainable development; Will be under the 'area' initiative in China the green energy field landmark pv projects, for the whole photovoltaic industry technology demonstration and the role of benchmarking.

ambitious '2050 energy strategic planning'

in recent years, the gulf countries onto the road of energy transformation, governments support promote the development of renewable energy industry, photovoltaic power generation to be the first choice of the majority of countries.

three years ago, the united Arab emirates (uae) have been ready to say goodbye to the last drop of oil, and began investing heavily in solar energy and other new energy projects, in the global landscape, such as the cost of new energy has played a pioneering role in the process of rapid decline.

the united Arab emirates (uae) oil and gas reserves in the world, plus the government heavily subsidized gas generator power structure is relatively single, gas power generation was once occupied 97% of the total power source. To get rid of the energy structure of a single, in 2017, the united Arab emirates announced ambitious energy strategy planning of 2050, to 2050 energy form will include 44% of the renewable energy, 38% of the clean fuel and 12% to 6% of the natural gas, nuclear power, and plans to invest $163 billion for renewable energy projects.

in the above energy strategy, driven by the united Arab emirates (uae) two emirates - — ABU dhabi and dubai, began to actively the construction of large-scale pv projects, photovoltaic power installed an increasing scale.

in addition, the united Arab emirates third-largest emirates sachia also not to be outdone, announced that plans to build the united Arab emirates first garbage power generation and the combination of solar power plant.

photovoltaic, energy strategy is important one annulus

photovoltaic power generation is not only a renewable energy, but also an important part of many national energy strategy.

the world is still a fossil energy as the leading factor, the change of international situation are also with fossil fuels for relations, energy reserves is the top priority.

but fossil fuels are non-renewable energy, after even oil reserves so rich gulf states, is now already ready to say goodbye to the last drop of oil, the layout of the other countries in the aspect of renewable energy is the earlier.

in the renewable energy, photovoltaic (pv) without being limited by the location, the most mature technology development, thus developing rapidly over the past two years. Countries around the world, including Europe and the United States, China and other developing photovoltaic for photovoltaic (pv) is not only the cause of renewable energy, especially for the national energy system complete safety.

in the long run, photovoltaic (pv) costs will continue to fall, in the future, countries will be more and more for the development of photovoltaic (pv), at the appointed time, pv will also usher in a wave of development peak.
