[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

• [Static acceptance of Wenyu section of Hangzhou Taizhou high-speed railway begins]
• On April 16, 2026, the Wenyu section of the Hangzhou Taizhou high-speed railway officially started static acceptance, and the main project was basically completed. The main line of this section is 37 kilometers long, with a designed speed of 350 kilometers per hour and a bridge tunnel ratio of 90.34%. The Lijiashan Tunnel is a controlled project for the entire line. After acceptance, it will be transferred to joint debugging and testing, and is expected to be opened within the year. At that time, it will end the history of Yuhuan not being connected to railways and help Zhejiang build a 1-hour high-speed railway transportation circle. Editor/Cheng Liting

• The rotor of Unit 3 of the Dashixia Water Conservancy Hub in Xinjiang has been successfully lifted, and the project has entered the final assembly and commissioning stage. The project has the world's tallest 247 meter concrete faced gravel dam with a total installed capacity of 750000 kilowatts. It is planned to be fully put into operation in the second half of 2026, benefiting 650000 households and 6.8 million acres of downstream irrigation areas. Editor/Cheng Liting
