While the CD and Gemini Solar Projects in the US are substantial, as of 2023, the title of the world’s largest solar plant goes to the Golmud Solar Park located in the Qinghai Province, China. So far, with a 2.8GW installed capacity, this mammoth solar installation is unparalleled in its size and impact.
Following closely behind the Golmud Solar Park is India’s Bhadla Solar Park. This massive facility sits on 14,000 acres in the Thar Desert in Rajasthan, India. Recent upgrades have raised the facility’s total capacity to 2.7GW.
