Encourage the construction of photovoltaic bases in the desert
The PV industry needs to spread out PV panels to receive greater sunlight. At the same time as the large-scale development of the industry, the problem of land use bottleneck has gradually emerged. Recently, the Ministry of Natural Resources, together with the State Forestry and Grassland Administration and the National Energy Administration, issued the Notice on Supporting the Development of the Photovoltaic Power Generation Industry to Standardize the Management of Land Use (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice"), which provides new ideas and new methods to solve this problem.
What kind of place is suitable for building a large-scale photovoltaic base?Industry insiders said that in comparison, wind power and photovoltaic development in deserts, Gobi, deserts and other areas can better form scale effects and reduce costs in land, infrastructure, operation and maintenance.
In recent years, China has repeatedly proposed to accelerate the construction of large-scale wind power photovoltaic bases in deserts, Gobi and desert areas. In February last year, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued the "Planning and Layout Plan for Large-scale Wind Power Photovoltaic Bases Focusing on Deserts, Gobi and Desert Areas", which proposed that by 2030, China will plan to build a total installed capacity of about 455 million kilowatts of wind and solar bases. At present, the construction of these large-scale wind power photovoltaic bases is progressing smoothly, the first batch of projects of about 100 million kilowatts have all started, and the second and third batches of projects are also progressing one after another.
