On October 18, 2022, Qatar time, the commissioning ceremony of the 800-megawatt photovoltaic power plant in Al-Kassar, Qatar, which was contracted by EPC of Power China Construction Corporation, was held. According to introducing, the plant is Qatar's first than fossil fuel power plants, is also one of the largest photovoltaic power station in the Middle East, a year is expected to provide about 1.8 billion KWH of clean electricity for Qatar, meet about 300000 households in electricity consumption, emissions of carbon dioxide each year about 900000 tons, the production of the development of new energy industry of Qatar has the milestone significance.

Alcasa photovoltaic power Station project

Al for the photovoltaic power station project is located in doha, the capital of Qatar in the desert, 80 kilometers west of the park covers an area of 10 square kilometers, the total installed more than 2 million solar panels, use the regional advantageous solar-thermal resources for electric power production, is currently the world's third largest independent photovoltaic power generation project, is the world's use of tracking system and double component's largest photovoltaic projects.

The project began in July 2020. During the construction process, the Power China Construction team overcame the severe environmental impact of frequent dust storms and long-term high temperature of 50 degrees Celsius, and effectively promoted the progress of the project. Adhere to the green construction, for the site of shrubs, lizards, snakes and other native animals and plants to develop a detailed migration plan, find a new home for them, reduce the impact on the local ecological environment. At the same time, we will establish a mechanism for energy and resource conservation and recycling, do a good job in garbage sorting and treatment, and build energy efficient and environmentally friendly construction sites.

As part of the "2030 national vision" of Qatar, the project created a new Qatar energy in the field of photovoltaic power generation, can satisfy the Qatar national 10% of peak power demand, boost the proportion of renewable energy in Qatar energy consumption, reduce carbon emissions, at the same time, its full capacity grid power before the 2022 World Cup, It will also bolster Qatar's commitment to hosting a "carbon balanced" World Cup.
