World's first 20 MW offshore wind turbine to the grid on February 5, 2026, located off the coast of Fujian Province. Developed with Goldwind, this 20-MW-class unit is the largest single-capacity turbine ever deployed, featuring a 300-meter rotor diameter and 174-meter hub height. It is expected to generate 80 GWh annually, powering 44,000 households. Key details about the 20 MW offshore turbine:

It is expected to generate 80 GWh annually, powering 44,000 households. 
Key details about the 20 MW offshore turbine:
Location & Installation: -
Installed over 30 km offshore in water depths exceeding 40 meters at the Zhangpu Liuao Phase 2 wind farm.
Capacity & Performance: -
The turbine is expected to generate over 80 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity annually.
Environmental Impact: -
The unit is projected to save approximately 22,000 tonnes of standard coal, reducing carbon emissions.
Design Innovations: -
The turbine features specially designed, lightweight airfoil blades and has a reduced weight per megawatt, improving overall efficiency.
Significance: -
This deployment marks a major milestone in renewable energy, providing technology for deeper, more distant offshore wind development. 
The project, which saw its installation completed in January 2026, overcomes significant technical challenges, including monsoon conditions.

Solar Generation in Night hrs

How to get get Solar generations in Night        While standard solar panels cannot generate electricity at night,     New technologies are being developed to address this limitation.      These advancements focus on harnessing the earth's heat or using infrared radiation emitted by the Earth to generate power, potentially creating 24-hour renewable energy sources.  Key Concepts and Technologies :- 1) Anti-Solar Panels (Thermo-radiative Cells):- How they work:-    These panels, also known as thermoradiative cells, work in reverse of traditional solar panels. Instead of absorbing sunlight, they emit infrared radiation into space, which is then converted into electricity.    Nighttime energy:-     They can generate electricity from the difference in temperature between the panel and the surrounding environment, essentially converting the heat escaping into space back into usable power.  Potential:-  ...

Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power

  Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power         Statement "1000 pounds" per day of hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power in the world" is not accurate.     While hydrogen can be produced from renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, it's not a replacement for those sources themselves. Hydrogen production via electrolysis, using renewable electricity, is a promising avenue for decarbonization, but it doesn't negate the need for solar and wind power as direct energy sources.  Cause behind its is as under. Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier:-     Hydrogen is an energy carrier, meaning it stores energy produced elsewhere (like from solar or wind) and can be used to power fuel cells or for other applications.  Electrolysis:-     A key method of producing "green" hydrogen involves using electricity from renewable sources (like solar and wind) to split water into hydrogen and oxygen throu...
