It's really amazing how much automation are in Chinese wind farms. Here is Goldwind reporting on wind farm in Ningxia which uses L3 level of automation. Uses drones for inspection and robot dogs for guarding and diagnose problems. Reduces the number of needed personnel here by 20, which is big for areas like this which are quite remote.

Emissions from electricity generation declined to a record low in H12025.

Surging clean power supplies have allowed China's utilities to reduce their emissions from electricity production to record lows during the opening half of 2025. Carbon dioxide emissions per kilowatt hour (kWh) of electricity averaged 492 grams during the opening half of 2025, according to data from energy portal electricitymaps.com. That was the first ever reading below 500 grams per kWh, and is down from 514g/kWh during the same period in 2024 and 539g/kWh from January to June 2023.

Total power generation from thermal power plants - mainly coal - dropped by 4% from a year ago to just under 7,000 terawatt hours (TWh), data from LSEG shows. Output from clean energy sources from January to June totalled 2,400 TWh, highlighting that fossil fuel power sources still account for a 75% share of China's power generation mix. But the growth of clean energy supplies continues to sharply outpace growth in fossil fuel power generation, suggesting that China's power mix looks set to keep getting cleaner. Total Chinese clean power output during the first half of 2025 was 200% more than during the first half of 2019, according to LSEG.
