    China's domestically developed C919-600 'Plateau' passenger aircraft has successfully completed its maiden flight, designed specifically for operation in high-altitude airports and complex geographical conditions. The aircraft aims to ensure safer operations, increase throughput on mountain routes, and expand market share in domestic passenger air transport. It is seen as a competitor to Airbus in high-altitude operations and part of China's effort to create a domestic alternative to Boeing 737 and Airbus A320.

    China's Coal Power Share Falls Below 50% for First Time

    China's coal-fired power generation accounted for less than 50% of total electricity generation in the first half of 2026 for the first time, according to the National Energy Administration. This marks a significant milestone in China's shift towards cleaner energy. Renewable energy sources, including wind and solar, generated about 24.6% of total electricity, with natural gas and nuclear making up the rest. However, despite the decreasing share, analysts predict that China's coal consumption may increase due to growing energy demand.
