## Description

The entry Gonghe Air Base and the civil project known as Gonghe Qinghaihu Airport refer to the same construction site in the Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Qinghai, and neither designation currently carries an IATA or ICAO code in this record. Chinese sources put the start of operations somewhere between 2025 and 2026; no independent confirmation of an opening date is available, and no cargo terminal, customs post or handling agent has been announced. The site lies on the plateau south of Qinghai Lake, in a county whose economy rests on the Talatan solar zone beside the Longyangxia dam, one of the world's largest photovoltaic complexes, supplied entirely by road. Air freight for Qinghai is consolidated at Xining Caojiabu (XNN) about 150 kilometres to the north-east, with Golmud (GOQ) serving the far west of the province. Shippers routing goods into the prefecture should therefore plan trucking time from Xining rather than a direct air connection.
