Beijing, December 20 (Youth.cn) - In a new energy industrial park in Zhangye, Gansu Province, photovoltaic panels and wind generating sets are functioning. Solar power and wind power are transformed to electricity power and transited to other regions. The photovoltaic panels have 811,000 kilowatts’ capacity, while the wind generating sets, 850,000 kilowatts. Transmitting electricity power to State Grid, the industrial park is a part of "West-to-East Power Transmission Project".
Linze County, where the industrial park is located in, is rich in solar power and wind power resources and is a good place to develop new energy industry. These years, based on natural resource and geographical advantages, the installations have played an role in producing electricity power and preventing sand storm. By making fully use of the photovoltaic panels, the use ratio of the land has increased. As the panels could prevent plants with sunshine, the psammophyte can grow well under the panels and form an anti-sand wall. These installations contribute to, in a vigorous manner, the high quality development of green industry and support the green energy transformation. Photo/VCG
