In recent years, the Chinese government has carried out a series of Photovoltaic Desert Control Projects, aiming to combine the efforts to develop the solar PV sector with measures to control desertification (CGTN, 2017; The state council of the P.R.C., 2019; Cui et al., 2017).
The results demonstrate that desert photovoltaic power plants do have an impact on the local climate and environment, which should be fully considered during future construction planning to ensure that photovoltaic power stations provide sustainable green energy for human beings without causing harm to the environment.
The results show that China began deploying PV power stations in desert areas as early as 2011. Validation of deployment years showed that 81 of 107 PV power stations (78%) had the same interpreted deployment year as the prediction (see Fig. S6).
China's PV power generation industry has also been developing remarkably. As of the end of 2020, China's solar PV power generation capacity has reached 253 GW, mainly distributed in the Gobi deserts of the arid area in Northwest China.
As of the end of 2020, China's solar PV power generation capacity has reached 253 GW, mainly distributed in the Gobi deserts of the arid area in Northwest China. According to the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), PV power generation will account for 12% of global power generation in 2030 and 33% in 2050 .
Compared to 2010, the greening area reached 30.80 km 2, accounting for 30% of the total area of PV power stations. Overall, the large-scale deployment of PV power stations has promoted desert greening, primarily due to government-led Photovoltaic Desert Control Projects and favorable climatic change.
