The Chinese government has denied compensation to residents, including Tibetan nomads, affected by the construction of the world’s largest hydro-solar plant, according to local residents. The Kela mega hydro-photovoltaic power station, which began full operation on Sunday, covers 16 million sq m and has a hydropower component to stabilise energy supply. The plant is capable of generating 2 billion kWh p.a. and can fully charge 15,000 electric vehicles, yet has forced Tibetans to leave the land they once grazed their cattle on, with no compensation offered.
