It was told by the representative from Shanghai Electric thatthis 700MW CSP project is the phase four project of Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum solar parkdeveloped by DEWA, is the world's biggest solar-thermal power stations. The plant will use "solar tower + parabolic trough" CSP technologies, concentrating solar-thermal power generation technology, including one 100MW molten salt solar tower station and 3 parabolic trough stations with a capacity of 200MW each, with a 15hours of thermal storage system.
The first phase of the project is expected to be completed by 2020.
