Yantai, a coastal city in Shandong province, has been putting solar and offshore wind power projects in service in recent years, driving the growth of green industries.

In response to this trend, Yantai Power Supply under the State Grid is building a new power system that integrates solar power generation with agricultural practices like planting and animal husbandry.

In Qujiagou village of Penglai, a breeding area spanning nearly 55,000 square meters has been equipped with solar panels boasting a capacity of 5.9 megawatts. This setup generates around 8.4 million kilowatt-hours of electricity annually.

The project takes advantage of ample space and abundant sunlight in its innovative approach to save land resources while developing new energy resources.

The cumulative installed capacity of solar power connected to the grid in Yantai has reached 6.12 million kilowatts, and the electricity generated this year totaled 5.3 billion kilowatt-hours, representing 8 percent of the city's total.
