🇨🇳 China just tested a wind turbine floating 2,000 metres in the sky... and it worked. The S2000 is a helium-filled airship carrying turbines, tethered to the ground by cables that also transmit electricity. At 2,000 metres, winds are stronger and more consistent than at ground level. In recent tests over Sichuan, it generated 385 kWh which is enough to power around 1,500 homes for a day. Source: dw News

“I think the world must realize that China will not converge with Western norms, and it will find its own path to modernity,” Singaporean Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said in a recent interview with the Financial Times, noting that China is a technological leader in many areas, in advanced manufacturing, in renewable energy, and the world has to contend with and accept the reality that China is not just a rising power, it is a risen power. China recently decided to forgo its special and differential treatment provisions in the WTO. In just this past year or so, it has doubled down on its support for global institutions. These are examples of how we have to embrace the reality that China will be a key player, and potentially a key leader, in this new global system, said Wong.

China begins selling a two-seat electric “flying saucer”! In the Chinese city of Yiwu, a futuristic eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft) designed like a flying saucer is now being offered for sale for around 800,000 yuan. The amphibious aircraft can land on water or land, carries two people, flies at an altitude of around 30 meters, and can remain airborne for up to 15 minutes. It also features an autopilot system and is claimed to withstand Level 5 winds. The striking part is that this is no longer just a prototype—it is being offered for sightseeing tours and entertainment shows, showing how eVTOL technology is gradually moving from experimental projects toward commercially available products.

China completes installation of world's largest single-unit floating offshore wind turbine The world's largest single-unit 16-megawatt floating offshore wind turbine "Three Gorges Pilot" was installed on Saturday in waters off Yangjiang, south China's Guangdong Province. The 16-megawatt floating offshore wind turbine consists of three parts, namely a 16 mw ultra-large capacity wind turbine, a semi-submersible floating platform, and a new mooring system. With a maximum tip height exceeding 270 meters, the wind turbine rotor has a diameter of 252 meters, with a swept area equivalent to seven standard football fields. Unlike traditional fixed-bottom turbines that are physically connected to the seabed, it is installed on a semi-submersible floating platform measuring 80.82 meters long, 91 meters wide, and with a displacement of 24,100 tons. The platform is secured through nine suction anchors, combined with domestically produced high-performance polyester fiber cables and anchor chains for seabed mooring and positioning. "To deal with the harsh sea conditions, our team has developed and applied a new mooring system, a dynamic monitoring system, an active ballast system, and 66 kV dynamic submarine cables for the first time in China," said Pan Hongguan, an offshore wind power engineer from Guangdong Branch of China Three Gorges Corporation (CTG). According to Pan, the new mooring system combines polyester cable and anchor chain, which is like adding a "spring" to the middle of the system, to deliver superior mechanical performance. The "Three Gorges Pilot" wind turbine previously completed its integrated assembly at Tieshan Port in Beihai of south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It arrived at its target sea area located more than 70 kilometers off the coast of Yangjiang after a long-distance towed voyage across the Qiongzhou Strait which connects South China's island province of Hainan with Guangdong Province on the mainland. After being put into operation, the wind turbine is expected to generate approximately 44.65 million kilowatt-hours of clean energy annually, enough to meet the annual electricity demand of 24,000 households.

Most renewable electricity in the world is not wind or solar, it is hydropower. Hydro produces about 14% of global electricity, and more than half of all renewable power. It is reliable, dispatchable, and produces virtually no CO2 - yet many environmental groups oppose new dams. The same contradiction appears with nuclear power. Nuclear produces zero operational CO2, runs 24 hours a day, and uses far less land than wind or solar. If cutting emissions were truly the priority here, the focus would be obvious: Hydropower and nuclear, not endless wind and solar expansion.

Wind turbines are getting bigger, more efficient, and are delivering higher output. That sounds impressive, but it isn't compared to other sources. A single nuclear plant, for example, produces around 1,750 megawatts. To match that, you need roughly 150 large turbines. Wind uses over 100X more land than nuclear for the same output. And turbines, of course, only produce power when the wind is blowing. Nuclear is constant. Then there's the storage requirements. To make wind reliable, you need batteries. At grid scale, that becomes impossible with current technologies. Wind power remains an expensive pipe dream, lining the pockets of a few at the expense of the many.

Wind power is sold as technological progress, but German professor Ludecke disagrees and has called it a return to the Medieval Ages. His calculation puts Germany's onshore wind output at an annual average of just 3.6 watts per square meter, whereas a coal plant comes in at 7,000 watts. That gap cannot be fixed with a taller tower or a larger blade. Wind is weak, scattered and weather dependent. And the output collapses quickly: half the wind speed and the available power falls to one-eighth. To harvest wind, turbines must be spread across vast areas, connected by new transmission lines and backed by reliable power plants for when the wind drops. Civilization advanced by replacing diffuse, unreliable energy with concentrated controllable power. Net Zero reverses that progress.

Worlds largest battery - beatiful pumped storage. Last week I visited Anji in central China. Its home to Changlongshan pumped storage plant. Deep inside the mountains water is pumped 400 meters by solar and wind power from a lower to an upper reservoir. When the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing or there is peak energy demand, energy from the hydro turbines is released into the grid. The plant is huge, but fit well into the terrain showing we can build big and respect nature all the same. It creates a seemless system of solar, wind and hydro 24 hours a day. This is the future of green energy!

🚨 Wind is Not the Clean Energy it is Sold to be. Wind #energy has been sold to an unsuspecting public as a clean, renewable source of unending energy. But that isn't true. In fact, the building of an average wind industrial installation consumes vastly more CO2 producing raw materials per kwh than any other power source in use today. Ever wonder what really goes into building a wind turbine, its tower, and its foundation? This brief video does a great job of giving you the details, and they are neither pretty nor clean. Text: Compared with conventional technologies, wind power requires vastly more raw materials for the same installed capacity, up to 15 times more concrete, 90 times more aluminum, and around 50 times more iron, copper, and glass. Each two megawatt turbine uses about 1,700 tons of material, around 1,300 tons of concrete, nearly 300 tons of steel, plus iron, fiberglass, and copper. The foundation alone uses hundreds of tons of concretes. Concrete is one of the world's largest CO2 sources responsible for 8% of global emissions. Then there are the rare earths. Just one ton of rare earth elements generates 2,000 tons of toxic waste. Worse still, all of this ends up in landfill every 15 to 20 years, with the entire process repeated. Wind is not the clean energy it is sold to be. #windenergy #toxicwaste #rareearthminerals #steel #concrete #CO2 #falsenarrative

Hard to believe these are from BBC: China is the biggest manufacturer in the world. China is leading in renewable... electric vehicles, solar panels, wind turbines, electric batteries. China makes more robots than anywhere else in the world. China has and processes more rare earth than anywhere else in the world. China doesn't demand you adopt its ideology. China didn’t ask countries to choose between China and the United States. In China, you have high-speed trains that can transport you from one side of the country to the other. China is a safe country. I could go for a run at 3:00 in the morning. I could put a bag full of money in a coffee shop, and it would still be there hours later. People are friendly, the food is nice...

1. Somalia has one of the highest wind and solar energy potentials on the planet. Wind and solar resources are suitable for power production on 85% of Somalia. 2. An engineer from SSC area designed this wind turbine and wind mill from a scrap metal and plans to scale it up. 3. Abundant renewable sources, long coastline with assortment of fish and crustaceans coupled with lots arable land, Somalia needs serious commitment in infrastructure to realize its potential of this unique position of being number one in the planet in renewable resources.

🇨🇳 CHINA'S WIND TURBINES NOW FLOAT ABOVE THE CLOUDS China's new stratospheric airship is designed to cruise 12 miles above Earth and generate electricity using a built-in wind turbine. Up there, winds are 5 to 8 times stronger than on the ground, meaning this thing could produce serious, consistent power without touching fossil fuels. It can store energy onboard or beam it down wirelessly. It's part weather station, part spy balloon, part Death Star prequel. Source: Defence Index

In 2016, South Australia learned what happens when a grid leans too hard on the wind. The Aussie state led the world in renewable dependence, with about 40% of its electricity coming from wind. Then a strong storm hit, and no less than nine wind farms cut their output, removing more than 450 megawatts in a matter of seconds. That cumulative loss tripped the Haywood interconnector, and the entire state went dark - about 1.7 million people without power. An official AEMO report found the sudden reduction in wind output was the key driver of the system collapse. South Australia had to restart the grid using diesel blackstart generators and gas power plants. A weather-dependent grid died in seconds, and only fossil fuels brought it back.

$There is no energy transition. Oil, coal and gas still supply 87% of the world's energy - roughly the same share as 20 years ago. Despite trillions in subsidies, solar and wind barely register on the global chart, accounting for just 6.5% of the primary energy supply. Fossil fuel use keeps rising, particularly in China and India. The renewable revolution can still only power a small fraction of the planet, and only when the sun shines or the wind blows. This is the data the headlines leave out. The transition isn't happening. It's a slogan.$

Elon Musk: The real bottleneck for AI is not chips, it is electricity. “If you look at electrical output outside of China, everywhere outside of China, it’s more or less flat. It’s maybe a slight increase, but pretty close flat. China has a rapid increase in electrical output. But if you’re putting data centers anywhere except China, where are you going to get your electricity? Especially as you scale. The output of chips is growing pretty much exponentially, but the output of electricity is flat. So how are you going to turn the chips on? Magical power sources? Magical electricity fairies? It’s harder to build on land than it is in space. It’s harder to scale on the ground than it is to scale in space. But also, you’re going to get about 5 times the effectiveness of solar panels in space versus the ground, and you don’t need batteries. I almost wore my other shirt, which says it’s always sunny in space because you don’t have a day-night cycle or seasonality, clouds, or an atmosphere in space. The atmosphere alone results in about a 30% loss of energy. So, any given solar panels can do about 5 times more power in space than on the ground, and you avoid the cost of having batteries to carry you through the night. So it’s actually much cheaper to do it in space. And my prediction is that it will be by far the cheapest place to put AI. It will be space in 36 months or less, maybe 30 months.” Dwarkesh Podcast, February 5, 2026.

Onshore wind is sold as 25-year infrastructure, but a UK and Denmark study found that after just 10 years. The average UK wind farm loses roughly one-third of its output. Then by 12 to 15 years, many become completely uneconomic to run. Less power, more wear, higher maintenance. So the farms need "repowering," they call it. That means ripping out old machines and replacing them early. So more steel, more blades shipped in from China, more waste and more subsidies. The 25-year lifespan claim was short enough, but in reality, turbines are barely lasting a decade.
