[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

• [The main project of Hubei Songzi Pumped Storage Power Station has started construction]
• Recently, the main project of Hubei Songzi Pumped Storage Power Station, which China Energy Engineering Gezhouba Group participated in, started construction. The power station is located in Songzi City, Jingzhou, with a total installed capacity of 1200 megawatts, and belongs to the first-class large (1) type project. Gezhouba Group undertakes the construction of the upper reservoir and the installation of metal structures, with a contract amount of 712 million yuan and a construction period of 48.5 months. After the completion of the power station, it will undertake tasks such as peak shaving, valley filling, energy storage, and frequency regulation, which is of great significance for ensuring the safety of the power grid and supporting the consumption of new energy.Editor/Cheng Liting

• [Guangzhou Eastern Central Energy Storage Power Station starts construction]
• On June 1, 2026, the Guangzhou Eastern Center Intelligent Fusion New Energy Storage Industry Demonstration Project invested and constructed by Zengtou Energy Company, a subsidiary of Zengcheng Urban Investment Group, officially started construction. The total investment of the project is nearly 467 million yuan, and a new 150MW/300MWh electrochemical independent energy storage power station will be built. It will adopt lithium iron phosphate battery technology and be connected to the power grid at 110kV, with the functions of peak shaving, frequency regulation, and promoting the consumption of new energy. The project is supported by a comprehensive operation and maintenance building, an electrical building, and auxiliary facilities such as fire protection, and is promoted through an integrated construction and operation model.Editor/Cheng Liting
