[National Energy Group: photovoltaic construction exceeded 8GW during the year]As of August 11, the National Energy Group had started 10.4 million kilowatts of power projects during the year, and put into operation 11.38 million kilowatts of power installed capacity, a record high for the same period. Photovoltaic installed capacity exceeded 20 million kilowatts, Ningxia Zhongwei phase I "Shage famine" project, Ningdong composite photovoltaic, Qinghai Daqaidan and other large base projects were put into full capacity, and the scale of offshore wind power exceeded 4 million kilowatts. Since the beginning of this year, the National Energy Group's infrastructure projects have been promoted at a high speed and on a large scale, with the goal of building a world-class clean and low-carbon energy leader, and vigorously implementing the "four guarantees and one" development path. The power supply projects started are all new energy. Among them, wind power projects started 2.31 million kilowatts, photovoltaic projects started 8.09 million kilowatts. New energy is the main force of new power supply projects, accounting for more than 50% of installed capacity. Since the beginning of this year, the national energy Group has connected a number of photovoltaic projects to the grid. Editor/Xu Shengpeng
On the afternoon of October 8th, under the on-site escort of the Guangdong Zhanjiang Maritime Bureau's "Haixun 0927" ship, the first flatbed cargo ship dedicated to the transportation of new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait, the "Green Source No. 1" ship, slowly entered the Xuwen Hai'an New Port, marking the successful trial operation of the ship's roll on/roll off transport route in the Qiongzhou Strait. It is reported that the deck cargo ship "Green Source No.1" has a total tonnage of 6731, a net tonnage of 3769, a length of 125.8 meters, and a width of 28 meters. The ship adopts a single-layer deck design, which can carry more than 160 new energy vehicles on a single voyage under full load conditions. The parking capacity is about 60% higher than that of existing passenger and roll on/roll off transport ships. The ship is planned to be deployed on the route from Hai'an New Port in Zhanjiang to Xiuying Port in Haikou. After being put into operation, it will add a new mode of sea transportation for new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait and effectively alleviate the tense situation of insufficient capacity for new energy vehicle transportation during the peak period of cross sea vehicle transportation in the Qiongzhou Strait.

On October 9, 2024, Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Fadhila stated that Malaysia has made progress in improving energy efficiency and that "energy conservation" has become the key to energy transition. Meanwhile, Malaysia will promote the ASEAN power grid as a key topic of discussion at the ASEAN Energy Ministers' Meeting. At the 2024 Asia Power and Energy Exhibition, which opened on the 8th, Fadhila revealed that as of June, Malaysia has saved 8769 gigawatt hours of electricity, worth over 2.2 billion ringgit, and plans to reduce 38 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions by 2025. In addition, the Malaysian government has approved the establishment of an energy exchange aimed at selling green electricity to neighboring countries. As the rotating chair of ASEAN in 2025, Malaysia will promote the construction of the ASEAN power grid to promote the promotion of renewable energy and enhance the resilience and reliability of electricity supply in ASEAN member countries.
