Due to abundant sunlight resources, Tongwei County was designated as a "National Photovoltaic Poverty Alleviation Pilot County" by the National Energy Administration and the State Council's Poverty Alleviation Office in 2014.

  In early September, the reporter saw rows of dark blue photovoltaic panels in the Liangmao Gully in Bangluo Town, Tongwei County, embedded in the emerald green mountains, like a "sea". These photovoltaic panels light up Tongwei. The overall road to poverty alleviation in Wei County.

  Here is a photovoltaic poverty alleviation project with a total investment of more than 390 million yuan-Sixin village-level photovoltaic power station.

The benefits of this super photovoltaic power station have solved the empty shell problem of the collective economy of 104 impoverished villages in Tongwei County, and effectively promoted the endogenous motivation of the village collective to lead the villagers out of poverty and become rich.

  The relevant person in charge of Tongwei County said that although the photovoltaic power station was built in Sixin Village, the benefits of solar heat are shared by multiple poor villages in Tongwei County. The photovoltaic power station built in this enclave mode aggregates high-quality resources and is easier Operation and management, generating economies of scale.

  One of the beneficiaries is Huachuan Village, Maying Town, dozens of kilometers away from Sixin Village, Bangluo Town.

In the future, not only photovoltaics can generate electricity, but also a vibrant ecological pastoral under photovoltaic panels.

At present, they have introduced oil-use peony and peony planting projects, and also introduced donkey breeding projects under photovoltaic panels to breed and breed, and ecological photovoltaic power plants have taken shape.

  How to distribute the revenue generated by photovoltaic power generation?

According to the relevant person in charge of Tongwei County, 80% of the power generation revenue is used for public welfare posts and public welfare undertakings in the village, and the village collectively evaluates and pays wages.
