Xinjiang Clean Energy Development - China

A staff member selects photovoltaic panels to be sent to a photovoltaic power station in Cele County of Hotan Prefecture, at the workshop of a new energy company in Ruoqiang County, Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture of Bayingolin, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, on Sept. 22, 2025. Xinjiang, a region rich in solar and wind energy resources, has vigorously developed the new energy industry in recent years, accelerating the construction of large-scale wind and photovoltaic power base projects. A 750-kilovolt (kV) "power expressway loop," the country's largest of its kind, has taken shape throughout Xinjiang, providing strong support for efficient energy allocation. Today, about one third of the electricity transmitted in Xinjiang comes from clean energy sources such as wind and solar power. It transmits over 270 billion kilowatt-hours of green electricity to other regions. Besides, an increasing number of companies are developing clean energy in Xinjiang, driving the region's green development.

China Completes 750-kV Power Transmission Loop

- A drone photo taken on April 28, 2025 shows a technician working on a 750-kilovolt (kV) power transmission line linking Qiemo and Ruoqiang in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. China has finished construction of a 4,197-km extra-high voltage power transmission loop around the Tarim Basin, home to the country's largest desert, marking a major infrastructure milestone in southern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The final section of the 750-kilovolt (kV) loop, now the country's largest of its kind, was connected on Sunday, capping a 15-year project involving nine substations and nearly 10,000 steel towers, according to a subsidiary of State Grid Xinjiang Electric Power Co., Ltd., which constructed the project.
