[South Africa: Install 18GW of renewable energy generation projects by 2030] South Africa is one of the best places in the world to develop photovoltaic projects due to its abundant photovoltaic power resources. The country has set a target of installing 18GW of renewable energy generation facilities by 2030, and photovoltaic systems are expected to make up a large part of that target. The South African Government's Renewable Energy Independent Generator Procurement Program (REIPPP) has been successful in attracting investment and supporting the development of photovoltaic projects in the country. The Renewable Energy Independent Generator Procurement Program (REIPPP) launched its sixth bid window in April 2022. The goal is to add 2,600MW of renewable energy to South Africa's energy mix. Meanwhile, South Africa's national energy regulator NERSA approved the establishment of 15 independent power generators in May 2022 and June 2022. Editor/Xu Shengpeng

• The Anhui Energy Minfeng Grid type Independent Energy Storage Project, the largest single unit cascaded high-voltage energy storage project in China, has recently completed the delivery of core equipment in Hotan, Xinjiang and entered the comprehensive commissioning stage. The project adopts a 35kV 200MW/800MWh cascaded high-voltage energy storage system, independently developed and produced by Guangzhou Zhiguang Energy Storage, with industry-leading technology. This system can effectively support the stability of the power grid, improve inertia and short-circuit capacity, help solve problems such as local power grid peak shaving and new energy consumption, and ensure the safe and stable operation of regional power.Editor/Gong Ziwei
