The project in Turna, Xinjiang, China. Image: Lan Shengwen, a reporter from Gaochang District Media Center. A 100MW thermal solar and molten salt energy storage system in Xinjiang, China, is set to be completed and grid-connected by the end of the year, part of a project which has also deployed conventional solar PV.
On December 31, 2024, the Rudong Integrated Photovoltaic (PV)-hydrogen-storage Project, operated by CHN Energy’s Guohua Energy Investment Co., Ltd. was successfully connected to grid.
A 100MW thermal solar and molten salt energy storage system in Xinjiang, China, is set to be completed and grid-connected by the end of 2024.
Thermal solar salt energy storage has in other instances meant using concentrated solar power (CSP) to heat and melt salt and store that thermal energy for charging, and then discharging the system by using the heat from the molten salt to power a turbine generator, after which the salt is circulated back into the system for ‘charging’ again.
The 400-megawatt project, spanning 287 hectares (4,300 mu), incorporates a newly constructed 220 kV onshore booster station, a 60 MW/120 MWh energy storage facility, and a hydrogen production and refueling station with a capacity of 1,500 cubic meters per hour and 500 kilograms per day, respectively.
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and gas detection systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for container-based projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple container additions at just $210/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
