New energy revitalizes coal mining subsidence area in China's Datong

STORY: New energy revitalizes coal mining subsidence area in China's Datong SHOOTING TIME: June 4, 2024 DATELINE: June 5, 2024 LENGTH: 00:01:06 LOCATION: DATONG, China CATEGORY: ENVIRONMENT SHOTLIST: 1. various of the base 2. SOUNDBITE 1 (Chinese): WANG ZHIWEI, Chairman of a new energy company based in Datong 3. SOUNDBITE 2 (Chinese): HAN ZHICHENG, Local photovoltaic power generation monitoring center STORYLINE: Datong City in north China's Shanxi Province was once heavily-reliant on coal mining. Due to prolonged and large-scale mining, there is a large subsidence area of about 1,687 square kilometers in the city. Thanks to the efforts to tap into renewable energy, the ecological environment here has changed a lot. The construction of the Datong Coal Mining Subsidence Area National Advanced Technology Photovoltaic Demonstration Base began in September 2015. Since then, 13 enterprises have invested in and helped to operate the photovoltaic panels. SOUNDBITE 1 (Chinese): WANG ZHIWEI, Chairman of a new en
