For those who prefer more sensible units that's 800km² and an average output of 680MW.

China reportedly installed 86GW of new coal-fired power capacity in 2022 and their existing plants ran at a capacity factor ~50%, so this project is the equivalent of something like 1.6% of the coal-burning capacity they added in that year. But it's also a pretty small fraction of all the solar panels they're building.
