A giant 'solar power bank' hidden in Gobi Desert, NW China's Xinjiang Can a solar power plant still generate electricity after the sun goes down? In Hami, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, rows of linear Fresnel reflectors track the sun, concentrating sunlight into thermal energy and storing it using molten salt. When night falls, this stored heat can be released to continue generating electricity, functioning just like a giant power bank for sunlight. The integrated project, combining concentrated solar power (CSP) and photovoltaic (PV) technology, has a total capacity of 1 million kilowatts (kW). It consists of a 900,000-kW PV power station and a 100,000-kW linear Fresnel molten salt CSP plant, whose solar field covers approximately 800,000 square meters. From tracking sunlight and storing heat to generating power, solar energy is transcending the boundaries of day and night in the Gobi Desert.

China’s domestically developed S1000 unmanned helicopter successfully completed a firefighting test at an altitude of 180 meters in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, on Tuesday, opening new possibilities for high-rise fire rescue. Capable of carrying up to 500 kilograms, the S1000 climbed to 180 meters, held its position with centimeter-level accuracy despite aerial challenges, and precisely sprayed water onto a simulated fire window via a ground-based high-pressure firefighting system, showcasing the potential of unmanned technology in emergency response.

China on Wednesday successfully conducted a low-altitude demonstration and verification flight test for its Long March-10 carrier rocket and a maximum dynamic pressure abort flight test for its new-generation crewed spaceship system Mengzhou in the southern island province of Hainan, marking a major breakthrough for the country's future crewed lunar landing missions. The return capsule of the new-generation Mengzhou crewed spaceship has safely splashed down in the predetermined sea area, according to the China Manned Space Agency.
