[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
On August 1, 2026, the single day and night container throughput of Shanghai Port reached a record high of 203881 TEUs, an increase of 8.8% compared to the original record on June 9. Previously, Typhoon Bawei had an impact of about 4 days. Since the resumption of production on July 14th, all ports in Hong Kong have cooperated and maintained an average daily throughput of 172000 TEUs. On July 23rd, the Zhendong branch achieved a record breaking daily container volume of 32130TEU; On August 1st, Shangdong Branch recorded 29910TEU in a single day and night, while Luodong Company recorded 8373TEU, both breaking records.

The construction drawing design of the Ningxiang to Liuyang Shashi section of the G9907 Changsha Zhuzhou Xiangtan metropolitan area ring expressway has passed the review, laying the foundation for the comprehensive construction of the project. It is reported that the Changsha North Cross Island Expressway starts from the Heshan Hub Interchange in Henglongqiao Town, Heshan District, Yiyang City, connects to the Ningshao Expressway, and ends at the Shashi South Hub Interchange in Shashi Town, Liuyang City, connecting to the Wushen Expressway, with a total length of 92.3 kilometers. The entire line is constructed according to the standard of a two-way six lane expressway, with a design speed of 120 kilometers per hour. There are a total of 13 interchanges (including 7 hub interchanges) along the route, and 2 service areas and 2 parking areas will be built to support the improvement of transportation engineering and facilities along the route.
