首堆、首个……中国能源领域迎来多个新突破

Core Insights - The article highlights three significant milestones in China's energy sector, showcasing the country's innovative capabilities in energy development [1][12]. Group 1: Nuclear Energy Innovation - The "Linglong One," the world's first land-based commercial modular small reactor, successfully completed its cold test, laying a solid foundation for future operations [2][4]. - Once operational, "Linglong One" is expected to generate an annual electricity output of 1 billion kilowatt-hours, meeting the electricity needs of 526,000 households in Hainan and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 880,000 tons, equivalent to planting 7.5 million trees annually [4]. Group 2: Thermal Power Development - The Gansu Changle Power Plant's expansion project, featuring six 1 million kilowatt coal-fired units, has officially commenced commercial operations, marking the completion of the first million-kilowatt peak-shaving thermal power project in Northwest China [5][7]. - This project, with a total investment of 20.5 billion yuan, supports the stable delivery of 33 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually from Gansu's renewable energy base [7]. Group 3: Emergency Response Capabilities - The establishment of China's first national-level deep-water oil and gas emergency rescue base in Hainan significantly enhances the country's emergency response capabilities in offshore oil and gas operations [8][11]. - The base, covering over 11,000 square meters, is equipped with advanced underwater emergency sealing and oil recovery systems, enabling rapid response to oil well blowouts and other emergencies within 48 hours [9][11].
