Headline of Nature News: Focusing on China''s Antarctic
The system''s total photovoltaic and wind power capacity reaches 230kW, accounting for 60% of the total electricity generation capacity at Qinling Station. It also utilizes
China''s Antarctic station goes green with scaled new energy system
China''s Qinling Station in Antarctica launched a pioneering hybrid power system in March, integrating wind, solar, hydrogen and diesel energy, marking the completion of the
Qinling Station
The station has an area of 5,244 m (56,450 ft ), and is in the shape of the Southern Cross, honouring Zheng He, an admiral and diplomat during the Ming Dynasty. It is designed to be run year-long, with enough space for up to 80 people during the antipodal summer. The station''s power system became operational in early 2025 and includes a generation capacity of 100 kW of wind power, 130 kW of solar power, 30 kW of hydrogen energy, and a 300 kWh low-temperatur
