[Two departments: develop new vehicles such as ultra-high-speed trains] The Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Science and Technology announced on the 13th the "Opinions on Speeding up the Construction of a Transport Powerful Country Driven by Scientific and Technological Innovation." The "Opinions" proposes to rationally coordinate the research on high-speed wheel-rail trains and high-speed heavy-haul freight trains. Strengthen the research and development of complete sets of technologies for autonomous transportation systems. Carry out the development of new types of transportation tools such as ultra-high-speed trains and ultra-high-speed commercial aircraft, and overcome the theoretical system and key technologies of submarine floating tunnels.

• As of the end of July 2026, China's installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation has reached 1.286 billion kilowatts, including 704 million kilowatts of centralized photovoltaics and 582 million kilowatts of distributed photovoltaics. For the first time, the installed capacity of coal-fired power has exceeded 1.285 billion kilowatts, making it the largest installed power category in China. From January to July, the national photovoltaic power generation reached 802.4 billion kilowatt hours, a year-on-year increase of 15.5%, exceeding the growth rate of electricity consumption in the whole society by 10.8 percentage points. It accounted for 13% of the total electricity consumption in the whole society, an increase of 1.7 percentage points compared to the whole year last year. Editor/Cheng Liting
