China has large potential for concentrated solar power (CSP), especially in the south-western part of the country. The highest daily mean values of direct normal radiation are found in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Sichuan Basin, at 9 kWh/m2. Most of northern and western China has daily average direct normal radiation over 5 kWh/m2, considered the limit for economical use of CSP. Practical limitations for deployment

Wind and solar are booming in China. So why is it building so many
The massive growth in wind and solar begs the question: why is China still building coal power plants and, by most analyses, way more than it actually needs? The answer is complicated.
