That means this is a DC powerline. And there are six conductors in each bundle. That’s extremely high current, over 5000 amps. But the really amazing thing you can

Short video shows that a solar farm can be built up on poles in a mud flat. https://fb.watch/AP284GDL6V/
The Chinese rural folk in Guizhou are benefitting from the farms and jobs. The farmers are getting paid for the use of their land. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02FACPr5ynWg456ZkN5exRc1DY31rirMeteCNnzbDjhKPDUv9VRinFHJSxqqkKXURnl&id=100050306297601&post_id=100050306297601_pfbid02FACPr5ynWg456ZkN5exRc1DY31rirMeteCNnzbDjhKPDUv9VRinFHJSxqqkKXURnl&mibextid=6yaNxA Another short about solar in China. Says 70% of electricity in China is supplied by these solar panels. They’re plowing the desert to install solar panels. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1940260953385737/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e

For the first time China’s carbon emissions are going down.
China, the world’s largest emîtter of greenhouse gases, could become https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02QqdHPx1QoQLwEw1xxZznMEERdXNYbkgfw2WLgDkEbnjQ8hRMYyP6mB1VPbDw1sKTl&id=100070231777183&post_id=100070231777183_pfbid02QqdHPx1QoQLwEw1xxZznMEERdXNYbkgfw2WLgDkEbnjQ8hRMYyP6mB1VPbDw1sKTl&mibextid=Nif5oz Another short article from AP about China and very rapid building of solar and wind. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02jdEmhRuCe6AwP4sA5XvSX8hAzo6UJftmMLT3D9PWXkrSVKeoEoNG8Lk33g8R9JAJl&id=100053093333529&post_id=100053093333529_pfbid02jdEmhRuCe6AwP4sA5XvSX8hAzo6UJftmMLT3D9PWXkrSVKeoEoNG8Lk33g8R9JAJl&mibextid=Nif5oz
Sam Evans Electric Viking video tells us about the change China is making to solar and wind and away from coal and natural gas. Planned new coal power plants are being cancelled. CO2! Emissions and pollution are not rising, they are falling.
In 2023, China added 216.88 GW of new solar capacity—more than twice the total solar capacity of the United States. This unprecedented expansion brought China’s total installed solar power to 609.49 GW, solidifying its position as the world leader in solar energy.To put this into perspective, China installed more solar power in one year than

Finally! Solar farms are good for the desert. Quote: “☀️Research from China suggests that solar panels are in a symbiotic relationship with the desert they are installed in. 🌵Their shade creates a more hospitable environment for plant life, revitalizing the ecosystem.” Source: https://glassalmanac.com/china-confirms-that-installing-solar-panels-in-deserts-irreversibly-transforms-the-ecosystem/
Two billion kW is equal to 2 million Megawatts, which is equal to 2 thousand Gigawatts, which is equal to 2 Terawatts. That’s more than the total generating capacity of the US. China’s installed non-fossil fuel power generation capacity surpassed 2 billion kW for the 1st time at the end of February, accounting for 58.8%
