Beijing targets capacity equivalent to 15 nuclear reactors by around 2030 Thousands of mirrors reflect thermal energy onto a tower at Shouhang High-Tech Energy Technology's concentrated solar thermal power plant near Dunhuang, China. (Shouhang High-Tech Energy Technology) SHANGHAI -- China is pushing the widespread adoption of concentrated solar thermal power (CSP), which generates electricity using the sun's heat, aiming to establish the technology as another renewable energy option alongside solar photovoltaic and wind power.
