On October 12, 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed at the Summit of the Leaders of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity: "China has accelerated the planning and construction of large-scale wind power photovoltaic base projects in desert, Gobi and desert areas, and the first phase of the project with an installed capacity of about 100 million kilowatts has been started in an orderly manner in the near future".
In order to implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's deployment instructions, as one of the large-scale wind power photovoltaic base projects started in the first phase of the country, the 2 million kilowatt photovoltaic sand control project of Inner Mongolia Mengxi Base Kubuqi was held on October 16 in The "Green Water Qingshan is Jinshan Yinshan" Practice innovation base in The Kubuqi Desert Yili Ecological Demonstration Zone in Hangjinqi, Ordos City, Inner Mongolia, marking that China's photovoltaic sand control and ecological comprehensive management have entered a new stage, and it is the effective practice of the concept of green water and green mountains is Jinshan Yinshan. It is also an important action to implement carbon peaking, carbon neutrality goals and ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin. The Energy Bureau of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the People's Government of Ordos City, the People's Government of Hangjinqi and the responsible persons of the main investment enterprises of elion Clean Energy, Three Gorges Energy and Ordos City and Hangzhou Jinqi State-owned Assets Platform attended the groundbreaking ceremony.

Desertification prevention and control is related to the survival and development of the Chinese nation and global ecological security. China is one of the countries with the most serious desertification in the world, and the desertification land area accounts for about a quarter of the national land area. Desertification causes imbalances in ecosystems and has a serious impact on people's production and livelihoods.
Inner Mongolia Mengxi Base Kubuqi 2 million kilowatts of photovoltaic sand control project is located in China's seventh largest desert - Kubuqi Desert, where the ecological environment was once extremely fragile, is one of the more serious areas of desertification and soil erosion in Inner Mongolia and even the whole country, is the main source of aeolian sand in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and an important source of quicksand in the Yellow River, and is also the root cause of poverty of the local people.
In the past 33 years, Elion Group has always adhered to the "party committee leadership, government leadership, enterprise mainstay, social participation" sand control model, under the care and attention of the state, with the support of party committees and governments at all levels in Inner Mongolia, in the hinterland of the Kubuqi Desert and China's western sand areas to open a large-scale road of science and technology, industrialization and large-scale sand control, and has made remarkable achievements. Elion Clean Energy is the main body of Elion Group's implementation of clean energy and photovoltaic sand control. Elion Clean Energy actively took action to implement the relevant requirements of "promoting Kubuqi's large-scale, scientific and technological experience in sand control and carrying out photovoltaic sand control pilots" clearly pointed out in the "Outline of Ecological Protection and High-quality Development Planning for the Yellow River Basin" of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, relying on the practical experience of photovoltaic sand control in the past ten million kilowatts, and innovated and built a three-dimensional circular economy photovoltaic sand control industry development model of "sand, light, hydrogen, chemical and agriculture" in five in one, so that the former "sand harm" became "Shali". And through the Kubuqi International Desert Forum, we will demonstrate to the world the practical actions and fruitful results of china's carbon neutrality.

China Three Gorges Group is an important backbone central enterprise in implementing the national Yangtze River protection and clean energy development strategy. As the main body of the strategy of the core business of new energy of the Three Gorges Group, Three Gorges Energy strives to "play a leading role in promoting the upgrading of the clean energy industry", unswervingly implements the strategy of "offshore wind power leader", and strives to build the "Three Gorges on Land". The installed capacity under construction and production exceeds 20 million kilowatts, and the cumulative transmission of clean electricity exceeds 120 billion kWh, contributing a steady stream of green kinetic energy to the development of clean energy in China.
Mengxi base Kubuqi 2 million kilowatts of photovoltaic sand control project can repair and control 100,000 acres of desert. After the completion of the project, it will effectively build an important ecological security barrier in the north and the ecological security of the Yellow River Basin, and comprehensively improve the level of carbon neutrality contribution. The project was jointly bid by Elion Clean Energy, Three Gorges Energy, Ordos City and Hangzhou Jinqi State-owned Assets Platform to win the bid and invest in construction. Elion and the Three Gorges share the same genes, the same mission and the same vision. The two sides will join hands to build the country's largest photovoltaic sand control project, which will give full play to the advantages of both sides in desert governance and high-quality development of new energy industries, unite innovation and synergy, leverage the capital market, realize the effective integration of state-owned capital and social capital, jointly carry the banner of photovoltaic sand control, shoulder the mission of yellow river protection and high-quality development and clean and low-carbon energy development, inject new momentum into the green and low-carbon development of Inner Mongolia, and make new contributions to the implementation of the national "double carbon" strategy.
