6 FAQs about [Solar photovoltaic panels to control desertification]

Does PV power station deployment promote desert greening in China?

In general, the desert greening (with a significant increase in vegetation) in China from PV power station deployment is largely promoted by the policy-driven Photovoltaic Desert Control Projects. However, the human activities effects on vegetation are often superimposed on the long-term climate-driven variations.

How can solar panels help combat desertification?

The combined system formed by PV panels and vegetation development was a highly efficient method of combating desertification that could provide sustainable economic, ecological and social prosperity in sandy ecosystems.

Does photovoltaic development improve environmental conditions in desert areas?

Photovoltaic development in desert areas has significantly improved local ecological and environmental conditions. At the WPS, the Status and Impact scores were 0.182 and 0.11, respectively, indicating a significant impact on the ecological environment of the study area.

Can solar power control desertification in China?

In recent years, the Chinese government has carried out a series of Photovoltaic Desert Control Projects, aiming to combine the efforts to develop the solar PV sector with measures to control desertification (CGTN, 2017; The state council of the P.R.C., 2019; Cui et al., 2017).

Can PV power stations reduce desertification in arid areas?

To bridge the research gap, a study was carried out to calculate and evaluate the PV power stations value in arid areas in order to put forward a new method to combat desertification by building PV power stations and to provide a theoretical basis and new ideas for future global environmental policy and PV power station planning.

Can a photovoltaic power station be built in the desert?

"Building a photovoltaic power station in the desert is not easy, and requirement for solar equipment is higher due to the windy and sandy environment in the desert," Miao Ruijun, deputy head of Mengxi New Energy Dalad Photovoltaic Power Station in SPIC Nei Mongol Energy Co, told the Global Times at the site on Saturday.
