[Jiangsu's longest cross sea cable project completed] According to Jiangsu Provincial Power Transmission and Transformation Co., Ltd., the first island type substation in Jiangsu - the 110 kV transmission and transformation project of Yangkou Port Sunshine Island in Rudong County - was completed on August 30th. This is the longest and farthest cable project across the sea in Jiangsu, with a single loop distance of about 16 kilometers. Sunshine Island covers an area of only 3 square kilometers and is a large offshore liquefied natural gas energy island, gathering a number of petrochemical storage and trading projects such as Sinopec Jiangsu LNG. Currently, Sunshine Island unloads 7 million tons of LNG annually, which can meet one-third of Jiangsu's annual natural gas demand. It is the largest clean energy hub base in the Yangtze River Delta region and is expected to unload 26 million tons of LNG annually by 2027. As a supporting power transmission project for the construction of a multi million ton energy island, this cable project will cooperate with the island's 110 kV substation to complete cross sea power transmission, ensuring the power supply of the LNG receiving station on the island. Chen Qingfei, director of the Construction Management Department of Jiangsu Power Transmission and Distribution Co., Ltd., introduced that as Rudong Coast is located in mudflat, it is not suitable to lay cables directly. Considering the high safety risk of erecting iron towers in the sea, the high cost of submarine cables, and the difficulty of maintenance, the project team finally chose a more economical and safe way of laying cables along the bridge, using the cable channel reserved by the Second Yellow Sea Bridge to lay a single circuit cable of about 16 kilometers long to connect inside and outside the island.

• [Qiongzhou Strait transportation new energy vehicle ship successfully docked]
• On the afternoon of October 8th, under the on-site escort of the Guangdong Zhanjiang Maritime Bureau's "Haixun 0927" ship, the first flatbed cargo ship dedicated to the transportation of new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait, the "Green Source No. 1" ship, slowly entered the Xuwen Hai'an New Port, marking the successful trial operation of the ship's roll on/roll off transport route in the Qiongzhou Strait. It is reported that the deck cargo ship "Green Source No.1" has a total tonnage of 6731, a net tonnage of 3769, a length of 125.8 meters, and a width of 28 meters. The ship adopts a single-layer deck design, which can carry more than 160 new energy vehicles on a single voyage under full load conditions. The parking capacity is about 60% higher than that of existing passenger and roll on/roll off transport ships. The ship is planned to be deployed on the route from Hai'an New Port in Zhanjiang to Xiuying Port in Haikou. After being put into operation, it will add a new mode of sea transportation for new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait and effectively alleviate the tense situation of insufficient capacity for new energy vehicle transportation during the peak period of cross sea vehicle transportation in the Qiongzhou Strait.

• [Malaysia's energy transition has made progress]
• On October 9, 2024, Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Fadhila stated that Malaysia has made progress in improving energy efficiency and that "energy conservation" has become the key to energy transition. Meanwhile, Malaysia will promote the ASEAN power grid as a key topic of discussion at the ASEAN Energy Ministers' Meeting. At the 2024 Asia Power and Energy Exhibition, which opened on the 8th, Fadhila revealed that as of June, Malaysia has saved 8769 gigawatt hours of electricity, worth over 2.2 billion ringgit, and plans to reduce 38 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions by 2025. In addition, the Malaysian government has approved the establishment of an energy exchange aimed at selling green electricity to neighboring countries. As the rotating chair of ASEAN in 2025, Malaysia will promote the construction of the ASEAN power grid to promote the promotion of renewable energy and enhance the resilience and reliability of electricity supply in ASEAN member countries.
