On November 20, 2022, the first foreign-invested enterprise cluster in Hainan Free Trade Port serving foreign-invested enterprises was unveiled in Qiongshan District, Haikou, and six foreign-invested enterprises signed letters of intent to move in at the same time.
In order to connect with the Hainan Free Trade Port, on January 1, 2017, the construction of Xuwen Port in Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province officially started. The port includes 16 5,000-ton passenger ro-ro berths and 1 5,000-ton hazardous goods dedicated ro-ro berth.
The Ministry of Commerce will make more efforts to support Hainan in aligning with high-standard international economic and trade rules, enhancing institutional openness, and fostering new growth drivers through targeted measures, Jiang said.
"The move is aimed at expanding opening up and accelerating development," said Cai, emphasizing that Hainan's opening up is not merely about lifting restrictions, but about systematically building an institutional framework to ensure the free and efficient flow of people, goods and capital.
On June 10, 2021, the 29th meeting of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People's Congress passed the Hainan Free Trade Port Law of the People's Republic of China, which determined to establish and improve the Hainan Free Trade Port customs supervision special zone system with closed-off customs operations on the entire island.

HAIKOU, China, Dec. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A report from Hainan International Media Center: China's southern island province of Hainan officially launched island-wide special customs operations on Thursday, a key step in developing the Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP) into a globally influential high-level free trade zone by the mid-century.
With a zero-tariff system fundamentally in place after the independent customs operation, high-quality global resources can flow into Hainan with greater freedom and efficiency, Wu said. Trade liberalization and facilitation are defining features of a free trade port.
A battery energy storage system (BESS), battery storage power station, battery energy grid storage (BEGS) or battery grid storage is a type of energy storage technology that uses a group of batteries in the grid to store electrical energy.
Battery storage power plants and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) are comparable in technology and function. However, battery storage power plants are larger. For safety and security, the actual batteries are housed in their own structures, like warehouses or containers.
Battery energy storage systems are generally designed to deliver their full rated power for durations ranging from 1 to 4 hours, with emerging technologies extending this to longer durations to meet evolving grid demands.
For example, the Bath County Pumped Storage Station, the second largest in the world, can store 24 GWh of electricity and dispatch 3 GW while the first phase of Vistra Energy 's Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility can store 1.2 GWh and dispatch 300 MW.
Paraguay generated 51.8 terawatt -hours of electricity in 2004, while consuming only 3.1 TWh. Almost all of the country's electricity production comes from a single facility, the bi-national Itaipu dam. Paraguay is one of the world's largest net exporters of electric power.
The country has become a significant net exporter of electricity, exporting 53.5% of its total production in the same year, which represents a 54% increase in electricity exports over the same period. Per capita, the electricity consumption in Paraguay was 2.086 MWh in 2021, showing a substantial increase of 127% since 2000.
Paraguay has no proven natural gas reserves, and it neither produces nor consumes natural gas. In recent years, the country has sought to promote the consumption of natural gas as a way to decrease the use of firewood and charcoal, which has contributed to deforestation in the country.
