Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: The cumulative number of new energy vehicles exceeded 10 million
Statistics from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology show that my country’s new energy vehicles have been promoted to 10.33 million, becoming an important force leading the electrification transformation of the global automobile industry.
The cumulative production and sales of new energy vehicles in the first quarter were 1.293 million and 1.257 million respectively, an increase of 1.4 times year-on-year, exceeding the full-year level in 2019. The market penetration rate has reached 19.3%, an increase of 11.4 percentage points year-on-year, and an increase of 5.9 percentage points from the full year of 2021.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will continue to carry out the pilot work of new energy vehicles to the countryside and battery swapping mode, and launch the pilot city of comprehensive electrification of public vehicles. And accelerate the construction of charging and swapping facilities, promote the realization of information sharing and unified settlement, and resolutely crack down on unfair competition such as price gouging, and promote the return of raw material prices to rationality as soon as possible.

Autofocus support and a lower f-number allow for a better shallow depth of field for portrait mode and selfies. It also improves focus quality for FaceTime or video calls and live streams. (Source: cnBeta)
Stanford develops solar panels that work at night
Researchers at Stanford University have modified commercially available solar panels to generate small amounts of electricity at night by utilizing a process called radiative cooling, which relies not on lies but on the frigid vacuum of space. The research was published in Applied Physics Letters in early April.
The researchers say they tend to think of the sun as an important renewable energy source, as is the cold of outer space. While the energy produced by the modified panels is small compared to the energy produced by modern solar panels during the day, the energy could still be useful, especially at night when energy demand is much lower.
Technically, the retrofitted solar panels do not generate solar power at night. Instead of using sunlight, the researchers added techniques that use radiative cooling. When an object faces the sky at night, it radiates heat into outer space, which means an object can become cooler than the air around it. This effect has obvious applications in cooling buildings, but differences in temperature can also be used to generate electricity. (Source: cnBeta)
