Description

At the end of 2019, China and Cuba signed cooperation documents to implement the “Ten Hundred Thousand” ("十百千") project of South-South cooperation proposed by President Xi Jinping and the “One Belt, One Road” South-South Cooperation Plan on Climate Change. On May 24, 2021, the material handover ceremony for the China-Cuba South-South Cooperation Project on Climate Change was successfully held in Shenzhen. China will provide Cuba with 5,000 sets of solar photovoltaic power generation systems to help Cuba solve the problem of electricity consumption for residents in remote rural areas and improve its ability to cope with climate change. The materials were to be shipped to Cuba shortly following the ceremony.
