Construction has begun in eastern China on the Qatar Bul Hanine oilfield redevelopment project, described as China’s largest international offshore
China has unveiled Hualong One 2.0, an upgraded version of its domestically developed nuclear power technology, with changes aimed at
The International Atomic Energy Agency has raised its long-term nuclear power forecast again, pointing to a major expansion in small
Proxima Fusion and Germany’s Lower Saxony have signed an agreement to develop a large-scale high-temperature superconducting tape factory. The first two phases are expected to require about €140 million, including €21 million from Lower Saxony. The facility could help supply Proxima’s future fusion machines while reducing Europe’s reliance on overseas HTS manufacturing.
Chinese researchers have developed an organic catalyst that keeps solar-generated charges separated for about 1,000 times longer than a conventional
China has started full operations of two units at the Jintan salt cavern compressed air energy storage project in Jiangsu
Energy Vault has secured 275 MW of Rolls-Royce MTU reciprocating engine generation capacity for future hyperscale AI infrastructure. Supported by dedicated financing from Eagle Point Credit Management, the equipment is expected to be delivered from H2 2027 through H1 2028. The deal is designed to help Energy Vault secure long-lead power equipment and support faster deployment of electricity for large AI data centers.
Researchers at Nanjing University have developed an iron-containing cathode for high-energy sodium-ion batteries. The material uses iron ions to help oxygen reactions reverse more effectively during charging and discharging. Tests improved oxygen-reaction reversibility from 75% to 99%, while a pouch cell reached 206 Wh/kg and retained 87.8% capacity after 100 cycles.
China has reported a fourth-generation lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery cell with an energy density above 200 Wh/kg. The figure
China has started construction of Unit 2 at the Zhaoyuan nuclear power project in Shandong. Developed by CGN, the project will use Hualong One reactors with 203-meter cooling towers. Once all six planned units are operational, the site is expected to produce about 50 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity each year while also supporting nuclear heating and industrial steam applications.
