A Breakthrough- Nagqu Wind Power Station

At present, as mankind has marched into the new millennium, economic globalization in Tibetan’s life is developing rapidly, increasingly changing Tibetan people’s material and cultural lives. Last year, the world’s highest wind power station opens in Nagqu Prefecture, northwest Tibet, making a breakthrough in the wind power construction in Tibet. And it is of great importance to relieve the power shortage of Nagqu Prefecture. ” .Explore Tibet Team, a professional Tibet travel agency, introduces this Nagqu wind power station to you.

A power station is an industrial facility for the generation of electric power. The Nagqu wind power station is owned and built by the Tibet branch of National Grid. It mainly turns the wind to the generator, a rotating machine that converts mechanical power into electrical power by creating relative motion between a magnetic field and a conductor. Wind turbines can be used to generate electricity in areas with strong, steady winds. Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is richly endowed by nature. The Nagqu wind power station is the first of its kind in Tibet.
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the world’s highest plateau, averaging over 4000 meters above sea level and covering an area of 200,000 square kilometers. So building this project needs to overcome various kinds of difficulties and challenges. The whole staff of Tibet branch of National Grid takes pulled together and worked hard to build this power station. Nagqu wind power station brought power around 700,000 farmers and herdsmen, 196 teaching sites, 666 temples, 142 Temple Administration Societies.
Nagqu wind power not only relieve the power shortage of Nagqu Prefecture and the whole region of Tibet, but also brought some convenience and some warm hopes to Tibetan people.
