In the past, Liannan County was plagued by the problem of rocky desertification, high-quality land resources were extremely scarce, and the road to ecological governance was difficult and long. But thanks to the unremitting efforts of the local people, the barren land has finally been rejuvenated with new hope and vitality. The mountain is still the same mountain, but it is no longer the same mountain, let's see how photovoltaic technology can make the barren mountain realize green butterfly change.
Barren mountain slopes stimulate "green potential"
Located in Liannan County, Qingyuan City, in the north-central part of Guangdong, it has high altitude and mountainous terrain, and the climate is complex and changeable. The steep slopes of the mountains, the vertical and horizontal ravines, and the limited land use resources have greatly limited the local development.
However, with the help of BYD Photovoltaic, the brilliance of green energy has stained the once barren mountains and rocky slopes, sweeping away the desolation of the past.
In recent years, BYD Solar has traveled to many remote areas with complex environments to deliver green energy to thousands of households. This time, BYD Solar came to Liannan County, Guangdong Province, where it built a mountain photovoltaic power station with an installed capacity of 30MW.
Affected by the application scenario, unlike the flat photovoltaic power station, the mountain environment has more stringent requirements for power station construction and module performance. As a global module supplier, BYD Solar has successfully helped many customers overcome harsh environments and achieve low-carbon energy transition.
BYD Solar's module products for the mountain power station use advanced technologies such as non-destructive cutting to greatly improve the load capacity and reliability of modules, reduce the risk of module cracking, and make the modules seem to be walking on the ground over mountains and mountains. By building a photovoltaic power plant on a steep hillside and overcoming the complex geographical environment, BYD Solar has helped local villagers embark on a path of green development.
Ecology and economy go hand in hand
It is understood that Liannan County has a total karst land area of 19,114.7 hectares and a rocky desertification land area of 237.9 hectares, which is a typical county of karst distribution in Guangdong Province. Due to the prominent problem of rocky desertification, Liannan County has less available land resources, and has become one of the counties with the most scarce land resources in Guangdong Province.
To this end, local residents have explored the path of rocky desertification control and actively carried out ecological restoration. In their long-term exploration and practice, they have found an emerging model of "photovoltaic rejuvenation", so that abandoned barren mountains can be reused, and green waters and lush mountains can be turned into gold and silver mountains.
The ground conditions in mountainous areas are complex and diverse, with different terrains such as hills, steep slopes, and flat land, and the humid, high-temperature, and corrosive environments pose challenges to product performance. Considering the limited land resources, BYD Solar calmly copes with the challenges of mountainous areas, and adopts high-power, large-size high-quality module products, which can increase power generation and reduce LCOE.
The 30MW mountain power station in the mountainous area of Liannan County can create about 30 million kWh of green electricity every year, which can fully meet the energy supply demand. In addition, the power station reduces surface water evaporation, increases soil water content and organic matter content, and further improves the utilization rate of land resources. Nearby residents can achieve a significant increase in their annual economic income through land leasing and ecological planting. Photovoltaic technology has injected new vitality and new momentum into rural revitalization.
With the help of BYD Solar, the photovoltaic action has freed the barren mountains from the fate of being idle, and the green development picture with remarkable governance results and vitality is inspiring. In the future, BYD Solar will continue to expand photovoltaic application scenarios, provide customers with better photovoltaic module products and smart photovoltaic solutions, and help the industry achieve high-quality development.
