In 2025, the global new shipbuilding market continues the wave of green transformation, and the proportion of orders for alternative fuel vessels in the first two months has reached a historical high. China's shipbuilding industry holds a dominant position in the field of green ships. In February, it undertook 73.2% of the global orders for new alternative fuel vessels, continuously consolidating its leading position in the global shipbuilding industry.

According to the latest statistical data from Clarkson, among the total 123 new ship orders with a total deadweight of 6.8 million tons globally from January to February this year, as many as 70 vessels with a total deadweight of 5.1 million tons are alternative fuel vessels, accounting for 75.2%. This proportion exceeds the 48.4% for the whole of last year and is also higher than the 54.3% for the whole of 2022, which set a historical record at that time. Calculated by the order value, the total global investment in new shipbuilding from January to February is 13.8 billion US dollars, and the order value of alternative fuel vessels is 9.8 billion US dollars (approximately 71.13 billion yuan), a year-on-year decrease of 48%, and the proportion reaches 71.5%.

Recently, the world's first 700-megawatt ultra-supercritical circulating fluidized bed (CFB) coal-fired power unit, supplied and developed by Dongfang Electric, was successfully connected to the grid at Yunneng Honghe Power Plant, officially entering the trial operation phase. This marks a significant breakthrough for China in the field of clean coal power technology.

The project features three major independently developed core components by Dongfang Electric: the boiler, steam turbine, and generator. The boiler adopts advanced ultra-supercritical circulating fluidized bed power generation technology, offering advantages such as large single-unit capacity, cutting-edge power generation technology, high efficiency, and outstanding energy-saving and environmental benefits.

In order to further strengthen industry exchanges and cooperation and promote the sustainable and healthy development of China's foundry industry, the China Foundry Association is scheduled to hold the "21st Annual Meeting of China Foundry Association" in Tianjin from May 17th to 20th, 2025.
