Media: China has built the world's largest solar power station cluster on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, covering 162 square miles, seven times the area of Manhattan.
The region is nearly ten thousand feet above sea level, with high intensity sunlight, thin air, and extremely high efficiency for solar power generation. In addition, there are nearby wind farms and hydropower stations, which together provide clean energy for the plateau region, meeting the electricity needs of local areas and data centers.
Although China remains the world's largest carbon emitter, it has pledged to increase renewable energy sixfold to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
China is becoming a global supplier of renewable energy and related products by investing in solar, wind, batteries, and electric vehicles, in sharp contrast to the Trump administration's push for traditional energy exports.
