[Hebei Wind Storage Hydrogen Comprehensive Smart Energy Project Commences]On August 26, 2023, the construction of the State Power Investment Xuanhua Wind and Hydrogen Storage Comprehensive Smart Energy Demonstration Project Booster and Energy Storage Station PC General Contracting Project undertaken by Hebei Engineering Company officially began. The project is located in the northeast of Zhaochuan Town, Xuanhua District, about 28 kilometers away from Xuanhua County. The site covers an area of 17708 square meters and can be divided into three areas from north to south: energy storage station area, booster station area, and hydrogen production station area. This phase of the project involves the construction of a 220 kV booster station and a 30 MW/60 MW energy storage station, including the construction of all buildings and ancillary facilities in the office management area, electrical production area, and energy storage area, as well as the installation, commissioning, and testing of equipment within the station. The project plans to achieve reverse power transmission at the booster station on December 25th. After the completion of this project, it can generate 380 million kilowatt hours of electricity annually. Compared with thermal power with the same power generation capacity, it saves approximately 115000 tons of standard coal and reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 315000 tons per year; The hydrogen production station uses wind power to produce hydrogen, with an annual hydrogen production capacity of 2.8 million standard cubic meters. The hydrogen produced will be used for local hydrogen fuel cell vehicle demonstration operation and Xuanhua Steel Plant, which has good social and environmental benefits. Editor/Zhao E
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.
