DBM Video: PV + Sand Land = New Oil? Southern University of Science and Technology Liu Ke: How to Transform the Western Sandy Land with Photovoltaic Panels?

2026-08-04 10:31:45

In recent years, we have done a lot of research with Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and we have done a lot of saline-alkali land management. Because China needs a lot of electricity now, it needs to lay a lot of solar energy.

In recent years, we have done a lot of research with Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and we have done a lot of saline-alkali land management. Because China needs a lot of electricity now, it needs to lay a lot of solar energy. But one of the wonderful things about this series is that there is a lot of land called sand in the West. What is sandy land? Unlike the desert, the desert is not green even if it rains. The western land of sandy land is all green when it rains, and all withered and yellow when it doesn't rain for a few days. These lands are useless. After laying solar panels on these lands, a magical phenomenon occurred. The grass under them all grew up. In some places, the grass even grew to the end, higher than boards. Five years later, ten years later, what if no one cuts it locally? Cattle and sheep are put in, cattle eat grass, cow dung and sheep dung are pulled, and the ecology is completely improved. Why is this happening? Because the sandy land does not retain water, after the solar energy is distributed, its first volatilization is less. Second, on a regular basis, in order to generate more electricity, he built a water pipe. There is still water around like the Yellow River. He regularly pumped water and generated electricity for a few more months. The money from selling electricity earned back the money from the water pipe. Third, it's wonderful. This sandy land is very hot during the day, but the temperature can't drop at night, and the water in the air can't fall down. But the glass plate was immediately lowered at night, and the air and water around it were all condensed there. There were only three factors, and the whole thing was treated. Now for us, this is the opportunity. We have done a lot of experiments on sandy soil and various land improvement.

In the future, 27% of the land in Northwest China can be covered with solar energy and wind energy, and as many as possible can be connected to the Internet. But it's impossible to get on the Internet. What if you can't get on the Internet? Once the local coal is separated, and then there is green electricity, the carbon is made into a liquid, so there is no need to import oil to solve the problem of insufficient oil in China. This is China, our liquids strategy in the new petrodollar era. My pipeline can still be transported over, whenever the original gas station does not refuel, add methanol on the line. And this benefit is lower carbon than oil, and imported oil has carbon emissions. First, solve the problem of insufficient oil in China. Second, solve the problem of carbon emissions caused by oil. At the same time, we improve the sandy land under the solar panels, and because the local solar panels have not been polluted by chemical fertilizers and pesticides, they can do organic agriculture instead.
