SOUNDBITE (Chinese): SHEN JUN, Director of Chinese Arctic and Antarctic Administration 
"The (construction and operation of) the Qinling Station have strictly adhered to the requirements of the Antarctic Treaty by using high-strength, lightweight, and environmentally friendly materials and clean energy sources such as wind, solar, and hydrogen, which account for 67 percent of the overall energy consumption.
The operation of the new station will not only fill the gap of Chinese scientific research in this region, but also provide crucial support for international studies on energy and matter exchanges in the Earth system, marine biological ecology, and global climate change."

Qinling Station started operation on Wednesday.

The perennial research station, located on Inexpressible Island in Terra Nova Bay of the Ross Sea, has a total construction area of 5,244 square meters and can accommodate 80 people during the summer expedition and 30 during the winter expedition.
