Fengle P is a 30 MW solar power plant in China, operational since its commissioning. It contributes 0.05% of China's total solar capacity of 54,642 MW across 1,329 plants. Ranked #447 of 1,329 solar plants in China, Fengle P's 30 MW is a small share of the national solar output. The largest solar plant in China is Ili Kazakh I at 1,000 MW, making Fengle P 33.3 times smaller. Nearby plants include GEPIC Jinchang power station (1,320 MW, Coal), Wuwei Cogen power station (700 MW, Coal), and Jinchang - Gepic Coal (660 MW, Coal). Fengle P is situated in Gansu Province, approximately 300 km from Lanzhou.

Solar power generation harnesses the sun's energy using photovoltaic (PV) cells or solar thermal systems to produce electricity. The basic principle of solar power generation involves converting sunlight into usable energy. When sunlight hits a PV cell, it excites electrons in the semiconductor material, generating an electric current. This process is known as the photovoltaic effect. Solar thermal systems, on the other hand, use sunlight to heat a fluid that, in turn, produces steam to drive a turbine and generate electricity. Both methods provide a clean and renewable energy source that is gaining significant traction worldwide.
