MakunaHatataChina is building a mammoth 8 GW solar farm
PugJesusGood on China. Regardless of our political leanings, I think we can all agree that renewable energy development is a positive thing.
Hopefully it doesn’t just go to AI.
Flying SquidDon’t worry, I’m sure at least some of it is going to mine crypto.
“See that? All that used to be farmland”
I think the rest of the world should buy the subsidized Chinese solar cells, the Chinese government will go bankrupt and the rest of the world will get cheaper, cleaner energy.
Looks like the biggest one outside China is Inda’s Bhadla Solar Park at 2.2GW.
China’s biggest before this looks to be Gonghe Talatan Solar Park according to Wikipedia at 10.4GW, but I couldn’t find much info on it.
But this is huge either way! Glad they’re investing so much into renewables and hopefully mostly skipping coal and oil all together.
Snot FlickermanDid they hire the guy with a theoretical degree in physics?
Well, now I gotta try to do this in Factorio. Thanks China.
