The project is a collaboration between Qatar Science and Technology Park, Chevron Qatar and GreenGulf, to test the solar energy technologies that are manufactured in different parts of the world to test it, and then determine the appropriate technologies for the Gulf region. The facility will examine the effects of humidity, temperature and dust on the performance of solar energy equipment and address the various challenges such as the efficient use of water in cleaning the solar energy systems. The project was established on an area of 35,000 square meters inside the Science and Technology Park. It will support the awareness of the idea of using solar energy in Qatar and the Gulf, through providing the information needed to plan a large-scale solar energy production in the region, as well as other applications such as refrigeration technology (solar cooling), and the desalination technology using solar energy (solar desalination).
