Local authorities announced during an international conference on new energy and new materials that North China's Inner Mongolia has achieved nearly 70 mn kilowatts of installed new energy capacity. The disclosure came as the city of Ordos hosted the international event, which kicked off on Wednesday, Xinhua News Agency reports.
As part of its ambitious goals for the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), Inner Mongolia aims to have 150 mn kilowatts of new energy capacity under construction or scheduled for installation. The region is known for its abundant new energy resources, ranking first in China for wind energy potential and second for solar power potential.
Inner Mongolia has been a leading player in the new energy sector, having generated over 640 bn kWh of electricity last year alone – the highest in the country. Out of this, more than 130 bn kWh was produced by the new energy sector.
The region's commitment to clean energy development has positioned it at the forefront of China's renewable energy efforts. With nearly 70 mn kilowatts of installed new energy capacity already in place, Inner Mongolia serves as an exemplar of successful renewable energy implementation.
These significant achievements have propelled Inner Mongolia's reputation as a key player in the national and international new energy market. The region's commitment to sustainable development aligns with China's broader goals of reducing carbon emissions and transitioning to clean energy sources.
