Equinor to buy a stake in a Pennsylvania gas-fired power plant for $940m from GIP, a BlackRock affiliate.

China's National Energy Administration, after its July monthly renewable-power dispatch video meeting, instructed local energy authorities to fully implement the minimum renewable-consumption share and renewable-power absorption responsibility-weighting measures and to coordinate with MIIT, housing and transport departments to prepare regional absorption implementation plans. Authorities must ensure key energy-intensive sectors meet consumption targets, strengthen monitoring and assessment, and enforce green-consumption responsibilities. The NEA called for accounting of baseline, economic and strategic factors, balancing reasonable project returns with system operating costs, and setting renewable-utilization targets scientifically. It said large interconnections (big-grid absorption) should remain the primary route, while promoting green-power direct links, source‑grid‑load‑storage integration and non-grid consumption to raise renewable absorption. The agency ordered an acceleration of large wind and photovoltaic base projects and the expedited development of offshore wind, centralized onshore wind and PV, concentrated solar power and distributed renewable projects, urging faster preparatory work and earlier construction starts to deliver physical output.
