The western area of northeast China's Jilin Province is witnessing rapid growth in its renewable energy sector, as a series of major projects take shape across the region.

From an integrated wind and solar–powered green hydrogen-to-ammonia demonstration project to large-scale power transmission and equipment manufacturing, the area is tapping into its abundant natural resources to build a robust clean energy industry.

In the first five months of 2025, fixed-asset investment in Jilin's energy sector reached approximately 33.54 billion yuan ($4.69 billion), up 59.1 percent year on year.

The province has designated "driving renewable energy development with innovative mechanisms" as a key special task in its energy development agenda, aiming to accelerate the deployment of demonstration projects, extend its green hydrogen industrial chain, and convert natural advantages into long-term development momentum.
