PV projects boost local ecological rehabilitation, economic growth in Kubuqi Desert, China's Inner Mongolia

An aerial drone photo taken on Sept. 3, 2025 shows a photovoltaic and desertification control project in Kubuqi Desert, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. In recent years, Inner Mongolia has carried out integrated projects for sand prevention and control as well as wind and photovoltaic power to advance the improvement efforts in Kubuqi Desert.

To date, photovoltaic bases have been established in the northern part of Kubuqi Desert, which also serve as solid booster for local ecological rehabilitation and economic growth. (Xinhua/Li Zhipeng)
