[In 2023, Zhejiang will rebuild 1,000 kilometers of rural roads] A few days ago, the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Zhejiang Provincial People's Government issued the "Implementation Opinions on Promoting Comprehensive Rural Revitalization at a High Level in 2023" (hereinafter referred to as "Opinions"). The "Opinions" pointed out: to create version 2.0 of "Four Good Rural Roads", to promote 26 counties (towns) in mountainous areas to connect third-class roads and administrative villages to connect to two-lane roads, and to complete 1,000 kilometers of newly rebuilt rural roads and 6,000 kilometers of maintenance projects. In the next five years, Zhejiang's highway transportation system will increase efforts to build and renovate ordinary national and provincial highways and low-grade road sections, and vigorously promote the construction of "Four Good Rural Roads" version 2.0. By 2027, Zhejiang will complete the reconstruction of 10,000 kilometers of rural roads, and realize that all natural villages with more than 100 people will be connected to grade roads; focus on promoting the construction of road network in mountainous counties, and realize that more than 85% of towns in 26 counties in mountainous areas will have access to third-grade roads, and more than 65% of them will be organized Two-lane roads are connected to the village; the "four networks in one" digital road is basically built, and a digital real-scene map of the road is built.

• [South Africa: Install 18GW of renewable energy generation projects by 2030]
• South Africa is one of the best places in the world to develop photovoltaic projects due to its abundant photovoltaic power resources. The country has set a target of installing 18GW of renewable energy generation facilities by 2030, and photovoltaic systems are expected to make up a large part of that target. The South African Government's Renewable Energy Independent Generator Procurement Program (REIPPP) has been successful in attracting investment and supporting the development of photovoltaic projects in the country. The Renewable Energy Independent Generator Procurement Program (REIPPP) launched its sixth bid window in April 2022. The goal is to add 2,600MW of renewable energy to South Africa's energy mix. Meanwhile, South Africa's national energy regulator NERSA approved the establishment of 15 independent power generators in May 2022 and June 2022. Editor/Xu Shengpeng

• [Wind power system has become the second largest power source in Yunnan]
• Recently, new energy projects in Yunnan have been put into operation and connected to the grid smoothly. The power generation in Yunnan has reached a new high. At present, the installed wind power system has reached 11.21 million kW, becoming the second largest power source in Yunnan after hydropower. The energy authorities of Yunnan Province will further standardize the competition and distribution of photovoltaic resources in the province, strengthen factor guarantee, and coordinate and promote the synchronous construction of source network projects. We will ensure that 7 million kW will be connected to the grid in the first half of 2023 and 15 million kW will be put into production within the year. Data show that in the first quarter of 2023, the average utilization hours of wind power equipment in Yunnan reached 914 hours, much higher than the national average level of 615 hours. In the first four months of this year, wind power generated 12.427 billion KWH, up 18.78% year on year, becoming the main source of incremental power in Yunnan Province. Yunnan Province has excellent wind energy resources. The wind resources are proportional to the altitude, and the wind speed, the average wind power density and the utilization hours in the upper altitude area all increase. Because most of the mountain Basi areas in Yunnan Province are between 1000m and 2000m above sea level, the high altitude downwind resources have a significant topographic effect, resulting in a higher utilization hours. Data show that the number of hours of wind power utilization in Yunnan ranks the top two in China all year round. Editor/Xu Shengpeng
