This large-scale project primarily focuses on the development of wind and solar power, with a total installed capacity of 13 million kilowatts. It aligns with the Chinese government's ambitions to expedite the construction of solar and wind power generation facilities in the Gobi Desert and other arid regions.
Yu Bing, deputy head of the National Energy Administration, said that the construction of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases in the Gobi and other desert regions is a major measure to promote green and low-carbon energy transformation, overall development and security, and build a new energy system.
