CSPPLAZA Solar thermal power generation news: 3 month 14 On [date], Shandong Electric Power Construction Co., Ltd. No. 3 filed a claim regarding its Redstone project in South Africa. 100MW The public announcement of the shortlisted bidders for the uninterruptible power supply procurement project of the molten-salt tower‑type concentrated solar power plant has been issued. CSPPLAZA Member unit —— Qingdao LDC Technology Corp. is the shortlisted candidate.

South African Red Stone 100MW The molten-salt tower solar thermal power plant project is located in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa. Kimberley Nearby Postmasburg ( Postmasburg ), the owner is Saudi Electricity. ACWA Power , the general contractor is China Power Construction Corporation Shandong Electric Power Construction No. 3 Engineering Company ( SEPCO III ), with a total project investment of approximately 116 billion rand (53 100 million RMB )。

This project is Africa’s first tower‑type molten‑salt concentrated solar power plant, located adjacent to… SolarReserve and those already developed by its partners 75MW of the Lesedi Photovoltaic power stations and 96MW of the Jasper Photovoltaic power plant. Local solar irradiance values. 2707kWh/ square meter / year. These three power stations together form a photovoltaic and concentrated solar power complex, with a total installed capacity of 271MW。

According to CSPPLAZA Earlier reports indicated that this project is, to date, South Africa’s largest renewable energy investment, following Israel… Ashalim Another milestone for the project in the concentrated solar power sector. The project is scheduled to… 2023 Commercial operations will commence in the fourth quarter of the year, enabling it to serve South Africa. 210000 Provide clean energy to households.

Project Configuration 12 Once commissioned, the small-scale molten-salt thermal energy storage system will be capable of delivering to the grid each year… 466GWh of electricity; moreover, the project’s strategic importance has been recognized by the South African National Energy Association ( SANEA )’s strong support and recognition.

As a high-tech enterprise dedicated to addressing power grid quality and industrial power supply challenges, Qingdao Addison entered the concentrated solar power (CSP) sector at an early stage, offering customized solutions for CSP plants. UPS It provides backup power and system solutions, and has already accumulated a solid track record and extensive experience in operating solar‑thermal power plants.

In the heliostat field of a concentrating solar power plant, if the plant’s auxiliary power supply is suddenly interrupted, the heliostat tracking system will fail. In mild cases, this may result in loss of solar concentration; in severe cases, it could lead to overheating and damage to the receiver. Therefore, the heliostat field must be equipped with a backup power system to handle temporary power outages.

Given the unique climatic conditions of the Northwest region, Qingdao Addison has implemented specialized design and R&D measures. For instance, it selects components with an exceptionally broad operating temperature range and customizes certain parts; incorporates redundant cooling into the product design and enhances air‑conditioning‑based heat dissipation; and increases design margins to slow the rate of temperature rise.

To date, the company has successfully participated in Dunhuang Shouhang Energy Conservation. 100MW Molten-salt tower project, Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai Province 50MW Molten-salt tower solar thermal power project, China Electric Engineering Corporation in Gonghe 50MW Tower-type concentrated solar power project, Dacheng Dunhuang 50MW Concentrated solar power project, the Jinfan Energy Aksai Molten Salt Solar Thermal Power Station project ( 1# Crew), Morocco Noor2 and Noor3 Commercial solar‑thermal power plants, both domestically and internationally, including solar‑thermal power projects.
