What else can turn a boring sight of black and white interesting?
Rightly named as Panda Power Plant and taking the shape of the country's most treasured animal-Panda went online in China, recently.
This adorable solar plant's construction started in 2016, by Panda Green Energy Group Limited (formerly known as United PhotoVoltaics Group Limited) under an agreement with United Nation Development Program(UNDP) to advocate for Renewable Energy.
The first phase of the plant offers 50 Megawatts of green energy and it is connected to China's power grid. The entire project will cover up to 1,500 acres and will produce about 100 Megawatts of clean green energy once it is completed, saving millions of coal.
This reduction in the usage of coal will bring down the Carbon emission by humongous amount.

The black color of the Panda is comprised of monocrystalline silicone solar cells, while the grey color comprises thin film solar cells.
This plant when completed can offer around 3.2 billion hours of electricity replacing the regular energy.
In the next five years, the company has planned to construct more plants under their "Panda 100 program".
The company is also conducting activity center for the school children in order to educate about the renewable energy and how the energies can be used in a more efficient way.
UNDP also shared their idea to promote the solar power plants outside China. Maybe in next 25 years, we will have more plants.
When it comes to renewable energy, China is way ahead of other countries.
Recently, they have launched the largest floating solar panel and in the last month, the entire area of Qinghai was run for a week using only clean energy.
