Recently, the 220 MW photovoltaic power station in Biscara, Algeria, constructed by China Power Construction, has been officially completed and put into operation. After the power station is put into operation, it is expected to generate 374 million kilowatt hours of electricity annually, saving 112200 tons of fossil energy and reducing 373000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually. The successful operation of the project marks the official integration of Algeria's first batch of photovoltaic green power into the national power grid, providing replicable and promotable benchmark experience for subsequent new energy project construction.Editor/Gong Ziwei
