How to improve the temperature adaptability of lithium-ion batteries has been the industry's research hot spots and difficulties. Recently, a new type of lithium-ion battery developed by the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (hereinafter referred to as "Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology") can withstand the "ice and fire" test, triggering industry concerns. A new aluminum-based lithium-ion battery with a minimum operating temperature of -70 degrees Celsius and a maximum operating temperature of -80 degrees Celsius. It is understood that, subject to material limitations, the charging operating temperature of traditional lithium-ion batteries is between 0 degrees Celsius and 45 degrees Celsius, and the discharging operating temperature is between -20 degrees Celsius and -60 degrees Celsius. In the low-temperature environment, traditional lithium-ion batteries will appear capacity degradation, shortened cycle life, charging difficulties and other issues. China's vast territory, the temperature changes with the geographical and seasonal changes, traditional lithium-ion batteries are easy to limit the scope of use. "Compared with the market's low-temperature withstand the lower limit of about -20 degrees Celsius battery, the new battery working temperature range is wider, better low-temperature performance, lower cost." Zhang Fan said, "The new aluminum-based lithium-ion battery is both frost-resistant and heat-resistant, and the product's high and low temperature performance, cycle life, safety performance and other indicators have been tested by third-party authorities, and mass production was achieved in May this year." Traditional lithium battery anode is usually made of graphite, which has the advantages of good cycle stability and low cost, but also has the disadvantages of low specific capacity and slow diffusion speed. The new aluminum-based lithium-ion battery also has advantages of low-temperature charging, long range and fast charging. In low-temperature charging performance, the new aluminum-based battery products achieve normal charging at a low temperature of minus 30 degrees Celsius; in range performance, thanks to the high theoretical capacity of aluminum-based anode materials, the battery energy density is 13%-25% higher than that of traditional lithium-ion batteries, and it can achieve a long range. In addition, due to the excellent conductivity of aluminum-based composite anode, the product can also be fully charged in 20 minutes, providing a solution for half-hour charging needs. In terms of price, compared with the current mainstream lithium-ion battery, the new aluminum-based lithium-ion battery price is 5%-10% higher. However, compared with other low-temperature battery products on the market, based on the choice of materials, the new aluminum-based lithium-ion battery cost can be reduced by 10% -30%. For the applicable scenarios, the new aluminum-based lithium-ion battery can be applied to photovoltaic energy storage, home energy storage, communication base station energy storage, rail transportation, aerospace and aviation, polar scientific research and other fields, especially in the alpine region and other market segments have unique advantages.

Behind the price war is often a battle for the market, the photovoltaic industry is no exception. At present, the photovoltaic industry expansion is still continuing, non-photovoltaic enterprises cross-border influx of more intensified homogenization of overcapacity. In the photovoltaic industry chain overcapacity, upstream and downstream price decline, component prices fell below 1 yuan / watt, how to cross the market cycle? How to guarantee the safe and stable operation of products in the life cycle? A new round of reshuffle is coming, how can the regulator guide the healthy development of the industry? In response to these questions, China Energy News reporter conducted an interview on November 15 during the Energy Sustainability Conference and Global Clean Energy Innovation Expo. Liu Yuxi, president of LONGi Green Energy's China regional department, told the China Energy News reporter that in the face of low-priced competition, LONGi did not perform aggressively, and although the market aspect was greatly challenged, this choice was in line with LONGi's consistent and steady style. "Uncontrolled cost-cutting in competition has brought about problems such as increasing size, thinning thickness and various encapsulation materials, false power labeling, and hidden cracks in modules. Now the market component prices approaching or even falling below 1 yuan / watt, far below the cost price, but whether such cost reduction can meet the real demands of customers, whether to protect the product 30-year life cycle of security, may be being ignored." Liu Yuxi reminded that "if this situation is allowed to develop, there will be more and more photovoltaic companies forced to manufacture low-quality and low-priced products under the existing lowest price winning rules, resulting in the consequences of bad money driving out good money." At the forum on the high-quality development of the PV industry held during the Energy Sustainable Development Conference, Kevin Zeng, director of the Policy Planning Department of the Guangdong Electric Power Industry Association, suggested that the PV industry is facing a new round of reshuffling, and outstanding enterprises should be more likely to traverse the cycle by virtue of their technological layout, and that a simple price war is not sustainable. "We hope to pass the spirit of sustainable and high-quality development to the PV industry chain, and jointly promote the healthy development of the industry, which is the mission and responsibility of every PV practitioner." Photovoltaic industry analyst Dugarn also expressed similar views: component prices are directly pushing the product cost price, manufacturers have no profit space, high-efficiency technology to accelerate the penetration of component products need to take into account high efficiency and high reliability.

A few days ago, the full-capacity grid-connected power generation ceremony was held for the floating photovoltaic power generation project in Chirata, Indonesia, which is the first and largest floating photovoltaic project in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, and the deepest floating photovoltaic project in the world. The project is the first in Indonesia and the largest floating PV project in Southeast Asia, and also the deepest floating PV under construction in the world, which will play an important role in demonstrating and leading the development of clean energy in Indonesia and even Southeast Asia. (hereinafter referred to as "Hengtong") provides high-quality power transmission products and services and photovoltaic system solutions, creating strong conditions for the smooth delivery and successful operation of the project. Located near the equator, Indonesia is the world's largest archipelago, rich in solar energy resources, with the inherent advantages of floating PV development. At the same time, however, the maximum water depth of the project area is more than 100 meters, the underwater terrain is complicated, the slope is steep, the rainy season is long, the silt layer is thick, and there are primitive forests and other special environments, which bring great challenges to the construction, and the corrosion-resistant and high waterproofing, and high reliability requirements for electric power products are extremely high. After receiving the task, Hengtong Power Cable Company responded quickly, formed a professional team, provided comprehensive product technical support at the first time, designed a unique water-blocking structure, high-quality products in line with the requirements of special environments, and overcame a series of construction problems such as laying on the water, sudden changes in the weather, etc., to ensure the success of the project, and gained the affirmation of the construction unit and the owner. It is reported that, as the first large-scale centralized photovoltaic project in Indonesia, the Chirata PV project created more than 8,000 local jobs directly and indirectly during the construction period, cultivated a number of local skilled workers, and provided valuable experience demonstration for the construction of subsequent photovoltaic projects. After the completion of the project, it is expected that the annual power generation will be 300,000 MWh, which can save 117,000 tons of standard coal/year and provide enough power for 50,000 families in Indonesia, which will greatly alleviate the tense situation of power supply around the West Java Island of Indonesia, and help the government of Indonesia to achieve the target of the proportion of renewable energy as soon as possible with photovoltaic power generation. Focusing on the goal of global green development, Hengtong is committed to promoting the green transformation of energy and the scientific and technological navigation of the clean development mode, and has already had successful project experiences in many countries and regions around the world, and is able to provide high-quality construction, operation and maintenance integrated solutions.

The project is located in Rudong County, Nantong City, covering an area of 3,045 acres, using the "photovoltaic + fishery farming" mode of construction, to achieve the efficient use of land resources and ecological development of fishponds, to create a "new sample" of the development of clean energy in Huaneng Jiangsu. After the completion of the project, the average annual power generation capacity of 230 million kilowatt-hours, can reduce the annual consumption of standard coal more than 70,000 tons, carbon dioxide emission reduction of about 151,600 tons, to further optimise the local energy structure, to create a multi-level green energy industry pattern has a positive effect, for the sustainable high-quality economic and social development of Rudong injected into a strong green kinetic energy. The project started construction in November 2022, Huaneng Jiangsu Company has always been to create high-quality projects as the goal, "strict, fine, fast, real" style of work to promote the project construction, scientific and reasonable arrangements for the construction, the site construction organisation and management of the site in an orderly manner, the joint operation and maintenance station, the construction unit, the supply unit, the commissioning unit of the all-out sprint! With the goal of grid connection, the project achieved the first reverse power delivery on 9 November and full capacity grid connection on 23 November, fully demonstrating the "Huaneng speed". Huaneng Nantong Power Plant has made every effort to promote the construction of supporting energy storage, which has provided strong support for the project's grid connection.

In recent years, China's offshore wind power photovoltaic show high-speed development trend, as of the end of September this year, the national cumulative installed capacity of offshore wind power has reached 31.89 million kilowatts. Among them, Jiangsu Province has become China's first offshore wind power installed capacity of more than ten million kilowatts of provinces. Jiangsu, Shandong and other provinces are planning to implement ten million kilowatts of offshore photovoltaic projects. Ren Jingdong, deputy director of the National Energy Board, in recent years, with technological advances and cost reductions, resource-rich and other advantages to further highlight the development of new energy at sea gradually entered the fast lane, a variety of new technologies, new models, new business practices continue to emerge, the future is expected to become an important force in the coastal areas of new energy supply.

First, 2023 photovoltaic will surpass hydropower, become the second largest installed power supply After entering the "14th Five-Year Plan", under the support of the carbon peak carbon neutral target, new energy ushered in a new cycle of full-speed development, national policy, local planning intensively, state-owned enterprises to join the strong, directly promote the photovoltaic power plant investment into white-hot. As of the end of December 2022, the country's cumulative installed power generation capacity of about 2.56 billion kilowatts, an increase of 7.8% year-on-year. Among them, the installed capacity of thermal power is about 1.332 billion kilowatts, the installed capacity of hydropower is about 414 million kilowatts, and the installed capacity of solar power generation is about 390 million kilowatts, which has become the country's third-largest form of power source after thermal power and hydropower. According to the industry installed trend, by the end of 2023 photovoltaic power generation installed capacity or will exceed 500 million kilowatts, the probability of surpassing the hydropower (including pumped storage) to become the country's second largest power source. After entering the 500 million kilowatts mark, new energy has become the main force in the new energy, but also towards the main form of energy across. It is worth noting that, as traditional energy prices continue to rise, with the full release of production capacity and technology, photovoltaic power in 2023 will become the world's first cheap form of electricity, which is also the photovoltaic industry continues to develop, the bottom line of endless! Second, photovoltaic power station development investment differentiation: state-owned enterprises monopoly ground power station market Although the controversy about the compression of new energy investment by state-owned enterprises in 2022 continues, from the annual target acquisition situation, the monopoly of state-owned enterprises in the ground power plant development market is further consolidated, and more than 70% of the main investors in ground power plants are still state-owned enterprises, which also confirms the trend of "the country into the people's retreat" in the development of ground power plants. This also confirms the trend of "national advancement and retreat" in the development of terrestrial power plants. Or with industrial support, or to protect the supply chain, in the field of photovoltaic manufacturing, the central state-owned enterprises began to move frequently. Up to now there are more than ten central enterprises and local state-owned enterprises to carry out photovoltaic manufacturing projects. It is worth noting that, in addition to the common co-operation mode, the self-built mode is gradually increasing. In fact, this is closely related to the ground power plant development model. In order to play the scale effect, China's ground power plant development gradually into the era of base, the amount of investment and construction management difficulties escalate, which also led to local governments in the allocation of indicators also prefer state-owned enterprises. Especially in the three batches of large base project preference, almost more than 90% of the project by the state-owned enterprises under the banner, most of the private enterprises to industrial support, local contribution and other ways to participate in it, but the project is still the leading investor in the state-owned enterprises. Although some provinces expressly encourage private enterprises to participate in the development of photovoltaic power plant projects, but from the overall trend, in the ground power plant market, private enterprises will be more involved as a service provider in the future, the central enterprises and other state-owned enterprises monopoly position will be further enhanced.

Previously, Hubei launched a 2GW wind and light project bidding and allocation for 2023, and proposed to prioritise support for six major categories, including coal power, pumped storage, new energy storage, and renewable energy hydrogen generation support. According to 20% / 2 hours (2.5 hours) allocation of energy storage capacity as a basic condition. New energy projects in addition to the base allocation of storage capacity to voluntarily increase the proportion of storage allocation, as a competitive condition. However, in order to guide the healthy competition of enterprises, in six categories of qualification review for further clarification: First, it is clear that not included in the provincial energy bureau plans for the flexibility of self-supply coal-fired power plant transformation, not in the peak summer period out of power during the construction of gas-fired units, declared supporting the new energy project does not belong to the scope of the support of the competition and allocation. Secondly, it is clear that electrolytic water to hydrogen project should be active and prudent, to prevent risk, not started the project and has not yet signed the electrolysis tank ordering contract project, not arranged to participate in the bidding and allocation.

New York State plans to invest in statewide and coastal renewable energy projects that will generate 6.4 gigawatts (GW) of clean energy, enough to power 2.6 million New York homes, create 8,300 jobs, and meet approximately 12 per cent of the state's electricity needs. This renewable energy investment will be the largest investment by a single state in U.S. history. "New York continues to lead the way in our nation's transition to clean energy," said Governor Kathy Hochul. "Investments of this magnitude aren't just about fighting climate change - we're creating good-paying union jobs, improving grid reliability, and delivering significant benefits to vulnerable communities. Today, we are taking action to put New York's climate goals within reach, showing the nation how to retool in the wake of global economic challenges while moving us forward to create a greener, more prosperous future for future generations." "The Department of Energy applauds this announcement, which represents an opportunity to build an offshore wind industry in the U.S. and revitalise domestic manufacturing and coastal economies while advancing our clean energy future," said U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer M. Granholm. "New York is showcasing President Biden's Invest in America agenda, and the Department of Energy looks forward to continuing to work together on project deployment, the development of a strong domestic supply chain, and transmission development to help achieve our state and federal offshore wind goals." From the Offshore Wind Project Solicitation, NYSERDA selected three new offshore wind projects with a total installed capacity of 4.032 gigawatts of clean energy. In addition, the awarded projects are expected to generate more than $15 billion in state spending and create more than 4,200 family-sustaining jobs on Long Island, in New York City, and in the Capital Region over the 25-year life of the projects.
