Not long ago, the Institute of Electric Engineering, part of the Chinese Academy of

Sciences, and Spanish Inceisa S. A. jointly undersigned a PMC contract, assigning the

Institute of Electric Engineering to construct a 1MW tower solar thermal power plant in

Spain using Chinese proprietary technologies. On the same day, a joint R&D center was

also created by the Institute of Electric Engineering and Inceisa S. A., to win the

international market with joint efforts. The Institute plans to establish a solar power

research branch in Spain. In addition, China-Spain Joint Center for Solar Thermal Power

Generation will recruit experienced Spanish experts to work for the Institute.
