[Huaneng Lingao 600MW Sea Breeze project started!]On December 5, Huaneng started construction on Lingao Offshore Wind Farm, Hainan's first offshore wind power project, which is planned to install 600,000 kilowatts and will be fully completed by 2024. At the commencement ceremony, Deng Jianling, general manager and deputy secretary of the Party Group of China Huaneng Group Co., LTD., and relevant leaders of Hainan Provincial Party Committee and provincial government and heads of relevant departments jointly laid the foundation for the project. Huaneng Lingao offshore wind power project is one of the "14th Five-Year Plan" construction and production projects approved by the National Energy Administration in the "Hainan Offshore Wind Farm Project Planning", and is also one of the "14th Five-Year Plan" offshore wind power demonstration projects in Hainan Province. The project is located in the northwest sea area of Lingao County, Hainan Province. After completion, it can provide nearly 1.9 billion KWH of green electricity to Hainan every year, which is equivalent to saving 560,000 tons of standard coal and reducing 1.56 million tons of carbon dioxide. It has significant economic, social and environmental benefits, and is of great significance to the construction of Hainan's clean energy island and the extension and development of offshore wind power industry chain.

The 1.2 million tons/year ethylene plant of Shanghai Petrochemical officially started construction on October 25, 2026. As a major project in Shanghai, the total investment of the project is about 21.3 billion yuan, and it is expected to be completed by the end of October 2028. The new facility adopts Sinopec's independent intellectual property low-energy ethylene separation technology. After it is put into operation, the existing 700000 tons/year ethylene plant will be shut down, and the annual ethylene production capacity will jump to 1.2 million tons. It can provide nearly 3 million tons of high-end chemical raw materials for downstream and help promote Shanghai's new industrialization and north-south transformation. Editor/Cheng Liting
