By 2024, the world’s cumulative installed solar capacity will reach 2.2TW, with China alone accounting for 1TW of the total operational capacity. This is the main conclusion of the latest report released this week by the International Energy Agency Photovoltaic Systems Program (IEA-PVPS). The report analyzes global installed capacity and technology trends over the past 12 months and h...
In every corner of the world, mining, as an important pillar of economic development, provides a steady stream of raw materials for all walks of life. However, while this industry promotes economic growth, it also brings huge energy consumption and environmental pressure. At present, the global mining industry accounts for about 11% of the world's total energy consumption, which is enough t...

With the fermentation of the "power bank recall incident", the battery safety issue has once again been pushed to the forefront. Recently, due to the battery safety issues of power banks, the Civil Aviation Administration issued a notice prohibiting passengers from carrying power banks without 3C logos, unclear 3C logos, recalled models or batches on domestic flights. Due to the frequent occurrenc...
In 1771, Arkwright opened the first water-powered spinning mill in Manchester, marking the beginning of modern factories. At this time, it was more than 100 years before the world's first power station was built, and water power became the energy supply for the earliest factories. A hundred years later, in 1896, the world's first industrial park was launched in the UK. It might be difficult for cr...
