While
solar power is touted as a viable option to meet
the growing demand, development of land-based
photovoltaic power stations is limited in some cases
by the cost of land, and in others by less-than-optimal
amounts of sunlight.
THE SOLUTION
China is committed to boosting the development of
‘green’ photovoltaics.
