On November 8, a Xiling Gorge cruise ship called Harmony slid off the slipway, and the second-generation new energy vessel was made by Huaxing Shipping Service Co., Ltd in Zigui County. The wonderful water craft is equipped with an oil-electricity hybrid power system, with a minimum range of 80 kilometers on the electric mode, and with a kickstart of integrated power from fossil fuel and high-energy battery during its peak operations. It is designed complete with a photovoltaic network to perform a quick switch between solar energy and electricity, based on its marketable features of “the real-time storage of light-generated electricity.” (Photo by Correspondent/Zheng Jiayu)
