Restoring wetlands in order to create green spaces within the city of Panjin

The Dongyue drinking water production plant is one of the sources of water for the town of Panjin in China.

To contribute to the city’s resilience, we have created, through the Panjin Sino French joint venture, a wetland area within the plant’s grounds, by restoring abandoned ponds and uncultivated land. After the restoration work, the site now has 30,000 m2 of green space, 69% of its total area.

As a result, it provides a habitat for  local wildlife, and in particular is attracting a large number of birds and insects.

In 2023, the wetland was acknowledged by the Panjin Forest and Wetland Preservation Administration.
