Robots ease high-altitude construction in Xizang

A 300-megawatt solar project in Chamdo, Xizang autonomous region, has deployed high-altitude-adapted installation robots during construction, underscoring the growing role of intelligent technologies in overcoming extreme conditions and advancing renewable energy development on the plateau.

The project, in Yechen township of Pashoi county at elevations above 4,300 meters, faces challenges that include low oxygen levels, harsh weather and a construction window of less than five months each year.
