OverviewConcentrated solar powerHistorySolar resourcesSolar photovoltaicsSolar water heatingEffects on the global solar power industryGovernment incentives

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 limit
