[Greece has huge potential for future development of renewable energy]Since the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the global energy transition has witnessed amazing progress in renewable energy. The pain brought by the energy crisis and high inflation to the energy sector in Greece has made the Greek government more determined to push forward the energy transition and implement the gas change target. First of all, in the area of policies and regulations, the Greek government has formulated a road map and removed obstacles for the development of green energy. Second, we should vigorously increase the proportion of sustainable energy supply, improve the energy mix and promote energy transformation. Greece has embarked on a fast track of green energy development with huge potential for future development. Thanks to its unique natural and geographical environment, Greece is rich in solar energy, wind energy and hydropower resources, which provide important basic conditions for green development. Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the ongoing geopolitical crisis in Europe and the pain brought by the energy crisis and high inflation to the energy sector in Greece have strengthened the determination of the Greek government to promote energy transformation and implement the target of gas transformation. Green energy development in Greece has entered the fast track with huge potential for future development. This follows the Greek Government's National Energy and Climate Plan 2030 on climate and energy issues, which sets out a detailed road map for achieving specific energy and climate targets by 2030, as well as streamlining the renewable energy licensing process, with a target of 35% renewable energy consumption in Greece by 2030, Installed renewable energy capacity increased from 8.62 gigawatts to 25 gigawatts, and 70% of the renewable energy will be used for domestic electricity production. Of this total, photovoltaic capacity reached 7.7 gigawatts, wind capacity increased to 7 gigawatts, hydropower to 3.7 gigawatts, biomass to 300 megawatts and geothermal power to 100 megawatts.

On February 25, 2026, the "Contemporary Energy Silk Road" themed open day was held in Almaty, Kazakhstan. The event focuses on major projects such as the China Kazakhstan natural gas pipeline, showcasing the achievements of energy interconnection and cultural exchange. The China Kazakhstan natural gas pipeline has become a pillar of regional energy security, ensuring the stable transmission of Central Asian natural gas to China, with an annual gas transmission capacity of more than 30 billion cubic meters, and is a model project for energy cooperation along the "the Belt and Road".Editor/Bian Wenjun
China and Saudi Arabia jointly built the landmark project of the "the Belt and Road" - Gulei Petrochemical Integration Project with a total investment of 42.07 billion yuan. In February, it entered a critical sprint stage, with the overall project progress exceeding 90%, and equipment installation and pipeline construction were comprehensively carried out. The project is jointly constructed by Saudi Arabia SABIC and Fujian Energy and Chemical Group, and is planned to be put into operation in the second half of 2026. After completion, it will become a new engine for the petrochemical industry in the southeast coast, deepening the cooperation of the entire energy and chemical industry chain between China and Saudi Arabia.Editor/Bian Wenjun
