Guanzhuang Solar Power Station Address

How big is China's ground-mounted solar power station?

The tool shows China ground mounted solar facilities occupied a surface of 2,467.7 km2 at the end of December 2020. Scientists led by the China Agricultural University have created a national-scale map and dataset of ground-mounted PV power stations in China.

How many ground-mounted PV power stations are there in China?

According to our dataset, China has a total of 2467.7 km 2 ground-mounted PV power stations in 2020. The top three largest provinces refer to Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and Qinghai, whose PV area ratio are 14.92%, 12.49% and 11.26%, respectively, with a total of nearly 40% of all the PV power stations of China.

Where are PV power plants located in China?

Eventually, we established a map of PV power plants in China by 2020, covering a total area of 2917 km2. Based on the derived national PV map, we found that most PV power plants were sited on cropland, followed by barren land and grassland. In addition, the installation of PV power plants has generally decreased the vegetation cover.

Does China have a spatial map of PV power stations?

Although some researchers released several PV power station maps, most only met a medium resolution of 30 meters 9, 10. There thus still lacks a national map of China’s PV power stations with a higher spatial resolution (i.e., 10 meters) that could provide a global understanding of PV’s spatial deployment patterns.

Does China have a solar power plant?

The country’s development of solar power plants, both on land and at sea, is a sign that even as the United States dismisses climate change, the rest of the world will continue to fight against it. China’s solar production doubled in 2016, but almost two-thirds of the country still runs on coal.

Can random forest predict PV power stations of China Parallelly on Gee?

Finally, the trained random forest model is adopted to predict PV power stations of China parallelly on GEE. Technical validation has been carefully performed across China which achieved a satisfactory accuracy over 89%.
