China's first floating solar power plant built over a mine-water area has been powering green development in Lingwu, northwest China's Ningxia, since it was first connected to the grid in 2022.
With a total installed capacity of 23 MW, the plant generates about 32.39 million kWh of electricity annually, saving 9,875 tonnes of standard coal and cutting CO2 emissions by about 27,000 tonnes a year.
