Remote sentry posts gain access to electric network source

PLA Daily 2004-01-08

  On December 28 last year, sentry posts of a frontier unit in remote area in Alashan League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region ended their 40 years' history of having no access to electric network source. The unit is stationed in the heart of a desert far away from national power network, thus it had to rely on wind-powered generators for power, which was unreliable. At the end of last year, the officers and men of the unit overcame various difficulties to erect a hundred-kilometer-long power supple line to connect those sentry posts with electric network, delivering power to those remote sentry posts.
