The largest solar power plant project
In June 2024, China connected the 3. 5 GW Midong solar project near Ürümqi in Xinjiang to the grid, making it, at that moment, the world's largest single operational PV plant. The installation spans desert terrain and is reported to generate around 6. These. . China's Overwhelming Dominance: China controls 11 of the top 15 largest solar farms globally, with the Gonghe Talatan Solar Park leading at 15. 6 GW capacity – equivalent to Singapore's entire land area and capable of powering millions of homes annually. Surpassing Midong, it will become the largest photovoltaic station.
