Does PV power station deployment affect desert vegetation?Previous remote sensing studies of a few PV power stations have demonstrated that the PV power station deployment does not significantly alter desert vegetation (Edalat and Stephen, 2017; Potter, 2016).
Should solar power stations be deployed in desert areas?The study revealed ecological benefits and the economic profits of deploying PV power stations in desert areas. It can help researchers and policymakers to pay more attention to the sustainable management of large-scale PV power stations in arid ecosystems.
Are deserts a good place to build a PV power station?Deserts are becoming the ideal places for constructing photovoltaic (PV) power stations, due to sufficient light conditions and broadly available land resources (Tanner et al., 2020). Apart from croplands, deserts are the most deployed areas for PV power stations worldwide by 2018 (Kruitwagen et al., 2021).
Does PV power station deployment promote desert greening in China?In general, the desert greening (with a significant increase in vegetation) in China from PV power station deployment is largely promoted by the policy-driven Photovoltaic Desert Control Projects. However, the human activities effects on vegetation are often superimposed on the long-term climate-driven variations.
Which Desert has the largest area of PV power stations?In 2018, MUS had the largest area of PV power stations (30.80 km 2, 30.0%), followed by TenD (29.50 km 2, 28.8%), UBD (11.33 km 2, 11.0%) and HobD (8.14 km 2, 8.0%). Compared with other deserts, these four deserts are located in the central part of north China, and the surrounding areas have a higher level of economic development.
How can solar energy help combat desertification?Compared to 2010, the greening area reached 30.80 km 2 after PV projects. Opportunity to combat desertification and improve people's welfare in desert areas. Solar energy is considered one of the key solutions to the growing demand for energy and to reducing greenhouse gas emissio
