Key points from the article:

In August, the device conducted its first offshore trial in the waters of the South China Sea at a depth of 1,900 meters. The total generating time of the trial lasted for four hours and 47 minutes, with a maximum power generation of 16.4 kilowatts and an effective power generation efficiency of 17.7 percent, according to GMGS.

"We have overcome some core key technologies such as deep-sea thermal insulation water intake, and cold water pipeline installation," Ning Bo, a senior engineer from GMGS and the person in charge of the project, told the Global Times on Tuesday. The device achieves a 100 percent localization rate, with low cost and strong maneuverability, according to its developer.

The offshore trial took more than 10 days. The offshore test not only verified the theoretical viability of the ocean thermal energy power generation system, but also implemented engineering applications, marking "a crucial step" for the country to develop from the land test stage to offshore applications in this field, Ning said.

this is really interesting news..

Turkey's energy and natural resources minister told reporters from foreign media on Thursday that Turkey is in the final stages of completing its second nuclear energy deal with China. The country is preparing to generate its first nuclear-powered electricity next year through a plant being constructed by Russia...

If an agreement is reached, it will symbolize NATO member Turkey's all-directional friendships, even during a period of intensified U.S.-China rivalry.

Alparslan Bayraktar mentioned that a Chinese delegation, led by the deputy director of the National Energy Administration, recently visited the site in Turkey's northwestern city of Kirklareli. This location, near Turkey's borders with Greece and Bulgaria, is planned to host four nuclear reactors. The project has been a subject of negotiation between Turkey and China for several years.

"We have been in talks with a Chinese company for a very long time. We are now at a stage where finalization is needed within a few months' time. We need to reach an agreement because there are other interested parties," Bayraktar said.

"We have already had enough negotiations on certain aspects of the deal. We are quite close," the minister added..

China has been engaged in discussions to construct a four-reactor power plant at a third site in Turkey's northwest for nearly a decade. China's State Power Investment Corp. is pitching its CAP 1400 reactors...

@tphuang sir this news will attract you.. interesting development

These kind of things are generally good news. By then, CAP-1400 should be fully ready.

I don't want to overplay the significance of nuclear plant (which American natsec loves to do for some reason).

Generally, when China gets further into energy infrastructure of another country, it's a good thing for China

Another major green Methanol project in Inner Mongolia
Please, Log in or Register to view URLs content!
26B RMB investment for a million t level green hydrogen project got announced and to be powered by wind & solar

This is just the latest in a long list of large projects in Inner Mongolia
Please, Log in or Register to view URLs content!
Also 500k ton of methanol back in May for 14B RMB (Inner Mongolia project costs are just lower than other parts of China)
Another 20k ton of hydrogen back in late April for 5B RMB
Another 1.5GW of solar & wind producing 60k ton of hydrogen back in early April for 10B RMB
and a bunch of other ones

So many projects. Here we have 22.3B RMB investment for 2GW of PV that generates electricity, stores power & 60t of green hydrogen/day (21900t/year)

Another huge 1 million ton green methanol project

This time in Heilongjiang

so EU not only panicked about Chinese EVs, but also Chinese wind turbines. Serve them right!

Western Australia awards major BES contract to CATL & Power electronics.

Mingyang has completed delivery of 92 large 11MW turbines for a 1GW offshore wind farm

Mingyang has now put a 10B RMB project which produces 10GW solar cells & 10GW modules into production. I don't think they are trying to compete against Longi. It's more about supporting combined wind/solar farms
