Gansu Dier’s 200,000-ton molten salt project to be established in Guazhou 2025-12-10 11:12 · Yunshang Jiuquan. The annual production capacity of Gansu Dier’s molten salt plant will be 200,000 tons, with a total investment of 740 million yuan; the project will be built in two phases. Among them, the first phase involves the construction of a 100,000-ton potassium nitrate plant for molten salt use, which is expected to be completed and put into operation by the end of this year ； In the second phase, a production line for 100,000 tons of sodium nitrate and a production line for 100,000 tons of nitric acid will be built, along with a 200,000-ton molten salt mixing facility. The project utilizes self-developed molten salt energy storage technology; once fully operational, it will fill the gap in new energy storage materials in the northwest region, provide critical material support for concentrated solar power generation, enable the local production of key raw materials, and expand the “concentrated solar +” industrial chain in Guazhou County. This will help to increase the scale and quality of concentrated solar power projects while reducing costs and improving efficiency. Once the project is completed and put into operation, it is expected to generate an annual output value of 1 billion yuan and create more than 200 job opportunities.
