In Jiuquan, Gansu province, over 25,000 heliostats track the sun in real-time, reflecting light onto a central tower column exceeding 200 meters in height. This mega-project uses heat storage to operate 24/7, overcoming the day-night limitations of solar energy and acting as a crucial stabilizer for the power grid. | Xu Zeyu | Facebook
