Meilin village in Xiaoshan district, Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, spans an area of 1.88 square kilometers. Originally a typical sandy plain settlement, it is transforming into a "low-carbon countryside" thanks to photovoltaic power generation.
The village has built photovoltaic panels over its rice farms and begun raising fish in its ponds to generate fresh revenue streams. Projections indicate an annual upsurge in the village's revenue surpassing 110,000 yuan ($15,313).
