• [Energy self balancing converter valve sets sail for installation in Guangdong]
• The core equipment of the Yangshan Island offshore converter station in Yangjiang set sail from Nantong, Jiangsu, heading towards the Yangjiang sea area in Guangdong. The world's first new type of converter valve with energy self balancing function has officially entered the offshore installation stage. This equipment is developed by Changzhou Borui Electric Power and will be applied to the world's largest offshore wind power direct current transmission project. The project is scheduled to be put into operation in October 2025 and can provide approximately 6 billion kilowatt hours of clean electricity to the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area annually, significantly reducing regional carbon emissions. Yes, it is equivalent to saving 1.74 million tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 4.62 million tons. Editor/Cheng Liting
