[The world's first 500 kV economical high voltage AC current limiter]A few days ago, the world's first 500kV/90kA economical high-voltage AC current limiter developed by China Xidian Group successfully completed the manual short-circuit test and was successfully put into operation on the Shun-Guang-A line of the 500kV Guangnan Station. The successful operation of the project has filled the domestic economical AC ultra-large short-circuit current suppression technology gap, provided an economical and reliable solution for the suppression of high-voltage AC short-circuit current, and provided a strong guarantee for the reliable operation of the ultra-high-voltage large power grid.

Recently, the 204 meter ultra-high unit of the third phase of the Hebei Xinji wind power project, constructed by China Power Construction Hydroelectric 16th Bureau, was successfully installed, breaking the global record for the height of onshore steel-concrete wind turbine towers and contributing a replicable power construction solution for wind power development in low wind speed areas. It is reported that the third phase of Hebei Huadian Xinji 500 MW wind power project is located in Xinji City, Hebei Province, with a total installed capacity of 100 MW.Editor/Gong Ziwei
On July 13, 2026, the world's tallest dam, Unit 2 of the Dadu River Shuangjiangkou Hydropower Station, was successfully put into operation for power generation, achieving the goal of double commissioning within half a month, marking a crucial step towards full operation of this world-class hydropower project. The power station is a key energy project in China, with a total installed capacity of 2 million kilowatts and an average annual power generation of 7.7 billion kilowatt hours. Previously, the first unit of Shuangjiangkou Power Station was connected to the grid for power generation on June 26, 2026.Editor/Gong Ziwei
