China News Service, Kunming, October 26. News from the Yunnan Company of the National Pipeline Network Group showed that from its launch in June 2017 to October 25, 2026, the China-Myanmar crude oil pipeline has transported more than 100 million tons of crude oil, laying a solid foundation for energy supply in southwest China.

As of the end of September 2026, China's total installed wind power and solar power generation capacity reached 2.01 billion kilowatts, exceeding the 2 billion kilowatt mark and ranking first in the world for many consecutive years, marking a phased progress in the construction of new power systems.

Many airports in China are promoting photovoltaic projects. Through technological breakthroughs such as anti-glare and wind resistance, they have transformed terminal roofs and other facilities from energy consumers to clean energy producers, helping to popularize green transportation on a large scale.

As the installed capacity of new energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaics continues to increase, "virtual power plants" have emerged. By aggregating various power generation, electricity consumption and energy storage resources, it plays a "fast, stable and flexible" regulatory role and becomes an indispensable regulator in the new power grid.
