This will be the second 10MW solar power station in Sangri County and a key project to promote new energy development across TAR. 

The project is planned with an overall installed capacity of 10 WM and a total investment of 230 million yuan, expected to complete in eight months.  

As estimated, half capacity of the station will be first completed and put in use by end of 2010. By April of 2011, the whole synchronized photovoltaic array will be able to provide 10MW in its full capacity to the regional power grid.
