There’s nowhere else in the world quite like it. You can’t help but be blown away by the number of solar panels gleaming from almost every surface in the city – from the top of its buildings to the roof of its buses.
Dezhou, China is the world’s first solar city, with 98% of its power produced by solar energy. It’s inspiration of Chinese entrepreneur Huang Ming, and China Icons got the guided tour from one of his engineers Ni Weiyue.
