Two-year timelapse of China-built 800MW solar power plant in Qatar【FULL VERSION】

Qatar on Tuesday inaugurated its first solar power plant built by Chinese companies in the desert area about 80 kilometers west of the capital Doha.

The ceremony was attended by Qatar's Emir (head of state) Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, as well as Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Khalid bin Khalifa bin Abdulaziz Al Thani, among other senior officials.

The 800MW Al Kharsaah Solar Power Plant, with a total investment of 417 million US dollars, is the first non-fossil fuel power station in the country endowed with petroleum and natural gas and one of the largest in the Middle East. It's a milestone project for the country in energy transition.
Stretching some 10 square kilometers, the plant has installed around two million solar panels to turn the region's rich photo-thermal resources into electricity.

Started in July 2020, the project was undertaken by the joint venture formed by three Chinese enterprises, which were mainly responsible for installing photovoltaic brackets and components, as well as building step-up substations and grid connection stations.

Thanks to technological innovation, Chinese companies also managed to expand the plant's electricity generation capacity by 20 percent by using automated robotic arms to clean the panels.

Very good. Made the vast expanse of the dry, empty desert useful and productive.

The Chinese are every where in Middle East, they are Doing some Amazing work! Way to Go

[ianwatson]

I worked for QSTec as a mechanical completions engineer 2016 and 2017. We built the first polysilicon manufacturing plant in Qatar to produce silicon for solar panels.

Masha'Allah Great Work by China and Qatar in Power Sector

Well Done China Qatar

[toniwhite]

This is amazing, one can not imagine the mass work without view this video, thank you!

[MuTong-ks]

In addition to generating electricity, it can turn deserts into grasslands

[inkbold]

That's a lot of stuff under those solar panels.

[passdasalt]

That was great showing every step. I feel confident to build one of these myself now.

[haniahannslew]

Qatar and many mid east countries have plenty of sunny days. It's a good idea to use more solar energy.

[smacospasovski]

The Chinese people are just amazing if everyone were like them the world would be a better place for living definitely, just bravo 👏👏👏👏👏

[goodfreelance]

can be used as shelter from the hot sun as well. A win win :)

[gunsumwong]

A high quality construction with attention to details. China is the world leader in each of the hydro, wind and solar. The amount of solar power generated in China can meet a country size like UK.

[stephentan]

If a large area of all deserts are fixed with solar panels, there will be an abundant supply of clean and cheap electricity. Also, grass may grow where goats or camels can be bred like in China.

[mutahharaksari]

Harika! Çölü yenilebilir enerji merkezi haline getirmişsiniz. Kolay gelsin.

[witness]

All the world cup visitors can go visit this amazing thing

[asappasa]

Hats off to the migrant workers from south asia for their hard work...

[mansoorabu]

Imagine the work place without a shadow 😓😓

[getevennow]

The Chinese, without question, are the most intelligent people on the planet . Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰

Please Install In Bihar Solar Panels
Bihar CM Nitish kumar and Deputy CM Tejaswi Yadav
Any Start Talking in this way to Install Solar Panels in Bihar

Because Bihar need this Solar Energy
