[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

• China's first 7-ton large-scale transport drone, the Changying-8, will make its maiden flight at Zhengzhou Shangjie Airport in the near future to verify key systems such as intelligent flight control and power fuel. It is currently ready for use. The aircraft is independently developed, with a length of 17 meters, a wingspan of 25 meters, a cargo hold of 18 cubic meters, a load capacity of 3.5 tons, and a range of over 3000 kilometers. It has high-altitude and short takeoff and landing capabilities.Editor/Gong Ziwei

• On March 25, 2026, the Far East Sheyang Offshore High Power Transmission Chain Project started construction, achieving the first breakthrough in the coastal layout of the industry with 100% self-developed and self-made transmission chains for offshore large megawatt units. The project is expected to be put into operation in November, and will collaborate with surrounding industries to enhance local supporting capabilities, reduce costs and increase efficiency, and strengthen operations and maintenance, helping to price offshore wind power.
