Solar and Biomass Plants to Work in Tandem in China. By Todd Woody, NYTimes, January 11, 2010. "China's plans to build 2,000 megawatts of solar thermal power using technology from a California company, eSolar, will also include the construction of biomass power plants to generate electricity when the sun sets. The solar and biomass plants will share turbines and other infrastructure, reducing the projects' cost and allowing around-the-clock electricity production... in the 66-square-mile Yulin Energy Park in northern China. A local shrub grown in the surrounding region to fight desertification, called the sand willow, will supply fuel for the biomass power plants, according to Penglai Electric."
