The production of electricity relying on natural energy sources continues to increase in Pyongyang.

Dozens of units have established the system-parallel generating system, while many other units and families have introduced the independent solar power generation system, with the result that the city has built a solar power generation capacity of nearly 10 000 kilowatts.

In addition, many other units are working to build solar energy-based generating capacity which is organically combined with national power grid. The units produce electricity by themselves and use it, while supplying the national power system with over 70 000 kWh of electricity every month.

Kangnam County has finished the construction of a power station with a capacity of generating 1 000 kW based on rice-chaff gasification and is now pressing on with the assembly of equipment in the final stage.
