In the rugged mountains of Uzbekistan's Zarafshan region, harsh winters once meant enduring blackouts and the daily struggle of life without reliable electricity. For Ermakhanov Alisher, these memories of coldness and darkness are now giving way to warmth and brightness, thanks to the construction of a wind power project by a Chinese company that has not only helped transform the energy structure to provide more reliable electricity to the locals, but has also created new job opportunities for residents. "I am so proud. After the construction of this wind power project, the prime minister of our country has inspected it three times. This is the largest commissioned wind power project in Uzbekistan," Alisher, a local who now works at the project, told the Global Times. The Zarafshan wind power project, constructed by the SEPCOIII Electric Power Construction Corporation, is located in Zarafshan, approximately 230 kilometers from Navoiy - one of the country's industrial centers. The total installed capacity of the project is 521.7 MW. While rich in coal, oil, and gas reserves, Uzbekistan still faced power shortage, partly due to its outdated power generation facilities, according to a report by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). To meet the rising energy demand, promote sustainable development, and address climate change impacts, Uzbekistan has ramped up efforts in recent years to diversify its energy structure with a key focus on renewable energy. The Zarafshan project is one such example of the growing cooperation between China and Uzbekistan in the country's green energy transformation campaign. As a BRI partner country, Uzbekistan is prioritizing "green" cooperation within the framework of the BRI. In October 2023, China and Uzbekistan signed an agreement on renewable energy cooperation, a pivotal step toward bolstering energy security and achieving carbon neutrality in Uzbekistan, the Xinhua News Agency reported. Many firsts During its execution, Zarafshan wind power project has achieved several milestones in the development of wind power in Uzbekistan: It is the first megawatt-level wind power project to be implemented, the first wind turbine to be installed, and the first wind turbine to be connected to the grid for power generation, according to the employee at the SEPCOIII Electric Power Construction Corporation who works at the project site. Currently, 500 MW have been added to the power grid, making it the largest single wind power project in Central Asia that has been commissioned. "Once fully completed, the project will provide sufficient green electricity for 500,000 households and will save 1.1 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually, contributing positively to Uzbekistan's energy transition and sustainable economic development goals," the employee told the Global Times. During the ceremony to celebrate for Uzbekistan's first WTG (wind turbine generator) lifting, Abdullajon Otaboev, an official at Uzbekistan's Ministry of Energy, hailed the project, stressing in his speech that "Zarafshan wind power project represents the highest international quality standards." The project will help reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change and contribute to the sustainable development of Uzbekistan's economy and environment, the official said. According to the ADB report, Uzbekistan's power generation facilities which mainly use fossil fuels operate beyond their expected lifespan. Therefore, they cause power outages in cities and more frequently in rural areas where "blackouts can last from six hours a day to a few weeks in some villages. Households, business activities, and public services are all severely affected." Meanwhile, the country's rapid economic growth further drives up the demand for power. "For Uzbekistan, this [Zarafshan] wind farm is key to its future energy needs: Fulfilling rising demand, delivering energy equity for the underserved, meeting climate goals, and achieving climate resilience," said Seung Duck Kim, senior energy specialist and project officer at the ADB. In Uzbekistan, it is no longer an unusual scene to see the presence of Chinese companies and Chinese technologies in the wind power industry. In July, China Southern Power Grid Co, Ltd (CSG) completed the partial equity acquisition of the Bash and Dzhankeldy wind farms in Uzbekistan, along with their 500-kilovolt transmission grid. The largest wind power project in Central Asia is expected to begin operations in 2025, according to Xinhua. In March 2023, the Bash and Dzhankeldy wind power project contracted by China Energy Engineering Corporation Limited in Uzbekistan broke ground. The project is estimated to provide more than 3.5 billion kilowatt-hours of power annually, representing a reduction of 1.6 million metric tons of carbon dioxide annually, according to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council. Stable income, expertise training Kamolova Rano, a mother of three children, works diligently as a kitchen assistant in the dining hall used for employees at the Zarafshan wind power project. For years, her family relied solely on her husband, who took on various odd jobs to make ends meet. Their financial situation was often precarious, leaving them in search of better opportunities. On hearing the news that a Chinese company was coming to their area to construct a wind farm, Rano told the Global Times that she seized the chance and applied for the kitchen assistant position. Additionally, her husband secured a stable job as a concrete worker on the project site. "The wages the company gives us are quite good. We are very satisfied about our current life," she said. For many employees, this job does not only mean a stable income, but a platform to hone their expertise. Guzal joined the SEPCOIII in 2021, a pivotal moment in her career. At the time, the company was engaged in the construction of the Navoi solar power station, which is the first solar power station in Uzbekistan. "This experience was not only my first exposure to a Chinese company, but also a significant learning opportunity, as my colleagues generously shared their knowledge and expertise with me. Their dedication and responsible approach to work left a lasting impression on me," she recalled. After the Navoi solar power project, she joined the Zarafshan wind power project. Over the last few years at the company, she said she has gained extensive knowledge about wind power plants, and is "proud" to be involved in the many firsts. "This achievement fills me with immense pride and joy. Looking ahead, I aspire to leverage the knowledge I have acquired to contribute even more to our nation's renewable energy initiatives, helping to ensure a future where our skies are bluer and our waters are clearer," she said. Green future While addressing the Legislative Chamber of the Oliy Majlis (the lower house of parliament) in November, Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev announced that the country has designated 2025 as the Year of Environmental Protection and Green Economy to address growing environmental challenges, according to Xinhua. In addition to harnessing the wind resources, the cooperation to transform Uzbekistan's abundant solar resources is also flourishing. In the deserts of the Kashkadarya and Bukhara regions of Uzbekistan, the 1-GW photovoltaic project shined as the first large-scale renewable energy project invested and constructed by Chinese enterprises in Central Asia after the first China-Central Asia Summit held in May 2023. It is also the largest photovoltaic project invested and constructed by Chinese enterprises in Central Asia under the framework of the BRI, Xinhua reported in July. As the world is facing growing pressure from climate change, the green campaign is not confined to Uzbekistan's borders; it extends to the broader Central Asian region. In November, Azerbaijan hosted the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29). During this pivotal event, nearly 200 parties engaged in multilateral negotiations, resulting in a comprehensive package of climate agreements. The conference also underscored the green transition goals of Central Asia, emphasizing the region's commitment to sustainable development. As Central Asian countries increasingly collaborate with China, China's solutions in renewable energy production, energy efficiency, and sustainable practices can provide valuable insights for Central Asian nations as they strive to achieve their environmental objectives. "The application of modern technology is critical to ensuring sustainable development in today's world. China, in particular, has a significant position," Ambassador of Azerbaijan to China Bunyad Huseynov told the Global Times in a previous interview. "China has made great strides in improving the population's well-being. It is also one of the countries to have invested the most in green development and renewable energy. I would like to point out that China sets an example for the world by sharing with other nations the expertise and technology it has acquired," he stressed.

The concept of "Hehe" in Chinese culture, with the first "He" embodying harmony, peace and balance and the second representing convergence, unity and cooperation, is central to both the individual and collective mind-set in China. Rooted in thousands of years of philosophy, the idea of "Hehe" serves as a guiding principle for living in harmony with others, nature and oneself. In a broader context, the concept of "Hehe" has significant relevance to the world today, as addressing the global challenges we face in various areas requires the principles that "Hehe" emphasizes. Viewed through a contemporary lens, "Hehe" is a timeless and universal concept that can guide China and the world toward a more harmonious, peaceful and balanced future. The Global Times gathers opinions from experts and scholars around the world to explore the global significance of "Hehe" culture from various perspectives. This is the third piece of the series. The Chinese nation has a long and profound pursuit of peace, and Chinese culture is characterized by deep-rooted ideas about harmony. The Chinese people have always harbored sincere aspirations for a better, peaceful world, and have been practitioners of "beating swords into plowshares" for thousands of years. The Chinese phrase "beating swords into plowshares" expresses the people's desire to lay down their weapons in pursuit of peace and serves as a warning to mankind not to bring about war again, as maintaining peace is what truly deserves our efforts. Gunpowder was first invented by the Chinese. It was originally used for fireworks to honor the gods rather than for making bullets for warfare, unlike in Europe. China has demonstrated to the world that technological advancement is meant to foster a safer world rather than to inflict harm. Why was gunpowder, invented in China, not used for warfare? This stems from the Chinese nation's values and ideals of peace, harmony, and coexistence, which are manifested in China's Hehe culture. The Chinese nation does not have a genetic predisposition for invading others or seeking hegemony; rather, the quest for peace is the enduring aspiration of the Chinese people. The ancient Chinese military treatise The Art of War states, "The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected." Its core message is to approach war with caution and, whenever possible, to avoid it altogether. The concepts of "harmony is to be prized" and "harmony in diversity" have been passed down through generations, becoming deeply ingrained in the spirit of the Chinese people and reflected in their actions. Historically, China was once one of the most powerful countries in the world, yet it did not leave behind any record of colonization or foreign invasion. In modern times, the Chinese people have suffered greatly from invasion and war, leading them to deeply appreciate peace and recognize the urgency of development. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country has never initiated any wars or conflicts and has never occupied even a square inch of another's land. Following the reform and opening-up, China has dedicated itself to promoting world peace, significantly reducing its military personnel by over four million. China's development from poverty to becoming the world's second-largest economy was not built on charity from others, much less on military expansion or colonial exploitation, but rather on the hard work of its people and the maintenance of peace, which has contributed stability and positivity to a tumultuous international landscape. The increasing strength of the Chinese military represents a growing force for world peace. As Chinese President Xi Jinping stressed, China is "a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of the international order." The Chinese military not only provides strategic support for safeguarding overseas interests but also increasingly takes on the mission of maintaining world peace. The stronger the Chinese military becomes, the more effectively it can deter war and bolster peace, thereby reinforcing global stability and development. China has become the largest troop contributor to peacekeeping operations among the permanent members of the UN Security Council and the second-largest contributor to UN peacekeeping assessments. From 2008 to 2024, the Chinese military has dispatched 46 escort task forces to the Gulf of Aden and the waters off Somalia, actively participating in international disaster relief and humanitarian assistance. Whether on the front lines of disaster relief or in defense of peace, the presence of the Chinese military is prominent in many issues of shared concern within the international community. China has the best track record with respect to peace and security, and is the only country in the world that has pledged to "keep to a path of peaceful development" in its Constitution. A large nation with over 1.4 billion people that adheres to a path of peaceful development itself constitutes a stable and powerful force for maintaining world peace. What the Chinese military offers on the world stage is security rather than threat, and opportunity instead of challenge. It has faithfully implemented concepts such as the Global Security Initiative and the idea of a community with a shared future for mankind. The Chinese military seeks its own security while championing collective security, promoting the establishment of multilateral security cooperation mechanisms, and putting into action a new vision for common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security. From bilateral to multilateral engagements, from regional waters to distant seas, and from "going out" to "bringing in," China has hosted a number of military diplomatic events, including the Beijing Xiangshan Forum, the Western Pacific Naval Symposium, and the China-Africa Peace and Security Forum. In this way, China has maintained frequent exchanges with high-level militaries from different countries, established defense and security consultation mechanisms with neighboring countries, and collaborated with all parties to address various international and regional security challenges. Moreover, the Chinese military is taking on increasingly significant responsibilities and playing a more vital role in maintaining global peace and regional stability. Regardless of how times change, the Chinese military will always be standing fast as a disciplined force for peace and justice. It will actively fulfill its responsibilities and obligations commensurate with China's international standing, provide more public security products for the world, and contribute to building lasting peace and universal security for a better future. The ability to fight enables one to prevent war. Without the pursuit of conflict prevention, the capacity to engage in combat could easily devolve into militarism and external aggression. Conversely, without the strength to fight, the desire to halt war becomes nothing more than wishful thinking. Hence, it is crucial to maintain strategic clarity regarding the potential risks of warfare and to leverage military strength in crisis management and war deterrence. Only through this can we effectively deter war and decisively prevail in any potential conflict.

In the heart of Rift Valley, located about 10 kilometers from Nakuru county in west Kenya, the country's first geothermal power plant built with 100 percent Chinese technologies, the 35-megawatt (MW) Sosian geothermal power plant, has been running for more than a year. During the period, the plant has generated an average annual power output of 38.5 MW. The electricity has been fed into Kenya's national grid and provided tens of thousands of households and companies in Nakuru - Kenya's 4th largest urban centre with a population of 570,674 - with reliable, clean and affordable electricity, the Global Times learned. Only 250 meters away from the Sosian plant, work on another 35-MW geothermal power plant, the Orpower 22 Geothermal Power Plant, is rapidly advancing since October. To be implemented in 17 months, the Orpower 22 power plant is believed to serve as a boost to Kenya's green energy switch, enhance climate resilience and stimulate the country's green economic growth. The two plants are part of the 105-megawatt Menengai geothermal project that consists of three modular power plants. The project, after completion, is expected to benefit around 500,000 households of which 70,000 in rural areas, 300,000 small businesses, according to a Word Bank report. A sustainable energy source Geothermal power harnesses heat from the earth's crust to convert groundwater into steam, which then drives turbines to generate electricity. The 6,400-kilometer East African Rift System (EARS), one of the largest rifts in the world, not only creates a magnificent landscape in Kenya, but also provides abundant geothermal resources with a power potential of 10,000 MW, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Kenya has been exploring its geothermal potential since the 1950s. The country now is the sixth largest geothermal power producer in the world, with geothermal energy accounting for over 50 percent of the national power mix followed by hydro power and thermal power, according to Xinhua reports. Geothermal energy is a clean and sustainable energy source. It is abundant in Kenya and more stable than wind and hydro energies. The commissioning of the Sosian geothermal power plant and the commencement of construction of the Orpower 22 geothermal power plant will have a profound impact on Kenya's efforts to promote the transition to green energy and address climate change, Li Haitao, a project manager from Kaishan Group, the contractor of Sosian and Orpower 22 plants, told the Global Times.

Sitting in his office in Madrid, Roberto A Paneque Fonseca's thoughts drift thousands of miles across the vast Atlantic Ocean to his home country of Cuba, grappling with a severe blackout that had profoundly affected the lives of its residents. Despite the distance, Fonseca felt an urgent need to take action and find a way to illuminate the homes of those in Cuba. Just then, his cellphone buzzed with a flurry of calls from Chinese companies which expressed a willingness to provide solar kits, presenting a potential solution to the crisis. Cuba has never lacked sunshine - the brilliant rays of the sun imbue Cubans with a passionate and vibrant spirit, lively dance moves and music, and high-saturation colorful architecture. Now, Cubans can benefit anew from this blessing by harnessing solar energy to brighten their lives. In recent years, the Cuban government has actively promoted energy transition policies aimed at reducing dependence on fossil fuels and increasing the share of renewable energy in the national energy structure. The Cuban government plans to invest $3.5 billion over the next 15 years to develop renewable energy, with a target to raise the proportion of renewable energy to 24 percent by 2030, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency. China's photovoltaic products and technology have become a solution to this vision, helping improve Cuba's power supply capacity and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. Find the path The solar energy technologies are not new to Fonseca, the president of the Robert A Paneque Foundation, in Spain, who had his first contact with the technologies back in 1975 when he frequently visited a solar panel and inverter factory run by a Spanish businessman in Havana. He believed that the solar kits could work in Cuba. "After all these calls from Chinese company executives, I began to investigate the demand and find out about the high demand throughout Cuba for solar panels, batteries, chargers, charge controllers, inverters, wind turbines, and other elements that make up the solar kits," he said. He then quickly contacted several Cuban engineers and technicians and they made up a group on a social network where they discussed the possibility of being able to produce all this equipment and devices in Cuba. "Due to our isolation from the outside world, if Cuba's National Electrical Grid continues to fail frequently, hundreds of thousands of Cuban families and companies would suffer a brutal impact on their standard of living and operation due to the lack of energy, electricity," he said. However, it is not easy to accomplish this mission, starting from the basic purchase of essentials, which is straightforward in most other countries. "Any consumer in most parts of the world can buy almost anything online and receive it within hours or days. However, the situation for Cuban consumers is entirely different. The inhumane economic and financial blockade exacerbates the already significant challenges of transporting goods to Cuba via air and sea, which raises costs by 120 percent for solar photovoltaic and wind energy systems," Fonseca explained. On top of this, there is a critical issue: When any of this sensitive equipment fails due to voltage and frequency fluctuations in Cuba's National Electric System, breakdowns and damage become a persistent problem. According to him, it is nearly impossible for customers to repair or replace the damaged equipment necessary to continue benefiting from solar or wind energy. Technicians are also unable to fix inverters, panels, or batteries due to the lack of electronic components, spare parts, and other essential materials. To find a way out and given the compelling and urgent need to put together a "Made in Cuba" solar kit, the first option they turned to was Chinese producers. "We went to those companies' website according to their specialty, and found the different circuits, components, electronic boards, circuits, elements, parts and pieces that we needed to be able to assemble our Cuban solar kit," he introduced. Fonseca made the goal clear to his team - he wanted the solar kit to be as simple as possible: A solar panel, an inverter, and a battery. After getting those components, they began assembling the inverter among this group of Cuban engineers and technicians who are experts in solar energy and at the same time were receiving advice from Chinese specialists. According to him, an important reason for using Chinese technology is its affordability and high cost-efficient. The fundamental idea is that this Cuban solar kit with Chinese technology does not exceed the production price of $150 dollars, with a maximum of $200, and that it has a power capacity of at least 1,500 watts, which is made up of at least one solar panel of minimum 500w, a 1.5kw inverter, and a battery of minimum 12 volts and 100 amps. "A kit with these characteristics would allow a Cuban family to have two or three LED lights on, charge two or three mobile phones, watch TV, listen to the radio and especially keep the refrigerator working to preserve perishable food," he said. Pass the torch In a barren field outside a village in western Cuba's Pinar del Río Province, rows of photovoltaic panels stand in quiet order. These blue "mirrors," bathed in sunlight, convert solar energy into a steady stream of clean electricity. This is Cuba's first solar power station project designed, procured, and constructed as an integrated initiative by the Chinese government. Officially handed over to the Cuban government in April 2018, the station represents a milestone in international cooperation, according to the website of POWERCHINA, a Chinese state-owned design and construction company. Once operational, the station could supply electricity to 20,000 residents. Additionally, it replaces part of the oil-fired power plants, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and setting an example for Cuba's pursuit of clean energy and a low-carbon economy. To help address Cuba's energy challenges, China's Ministry of Commerce initiated this photovoltaic assistance project.

Li Yuanyuan had previously worked in many places. After becoming a delivery worker in Changzhou, East China's Jiangsu Province, in 2016, he met his wife and developed the desire to settle down in this city. In 2018, they welcomed the "fruit of their love" - their daughter Li Fei'er. Due to economic limitations and the lack of helper to take care of the young child, Li had no choice but to place the baby in a delivery box from when she was only months old and take her along as he worked. Despite being put in a delivery box, Fei'er always carried brilliant smiles on her face. Videos of the father and daughter accidentally went viral on Chinese social media platforms and social media users were impressed by their optimism. Fei'er was dubbed the "delivery baby" by netizens. In 2022, after years of strenuous efforts, Li and his wife finally saved up enough money to realize their longtime wish of buying an apartment in Changzhou with a mortgage. The next year, the Changzhou government started a project to renovate local old residential communities, including the area where Li bought his 60-square-meter apartment. By the end of 2023, the family finally moved into the new house and spent a warm Spring Festival in 2024. "Although the house is only 60-square meters, it is always filled with laughter and happiness. I feel like it is 'so big,'" Li told the Global Times. "I am just an ordinary person with no grand ambitions. I simply hope to live in the moment with my family and watch my child grow up healthily," he said. Li's simple wish is also the heartfelt desire of more than 1.4 billion Chinese people. Since the Third Plenary Session of 18th Central Committee of Communist Party of China (CPC) in November 2013, China has been striving to build a harmonious society that provides everyone with the opportunity to shine in life and allows every Chinese people to realize their dream of living and working in happiness and contentment. Throughout history, a safe and harmonious society where the common people can live happily has always been a vital value advocated by Chinese traditional "He" culture. On January 18, 2016, during a study session on implementing the decisions of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee attended by officials at provincial and ministerial level, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, quoted a classic saying from Chinese philosophical anthology The Huainanzi to emphasize this value: "There are some fixed principles in governing a state, among which benefiting the people should be the root." In the report to the 20th CPC National Congress, Xi once again cited the phrase and stressed "Bringing benefit to the people is the fundamental principle of governance. Working for the people's wellbeing is an essential part of the Party's commitment to serving the public good and exercising governance for the people. We must ensure and improve the people's wellbeing in the course of pursuing development and encourage everyone to work hard together to meet the people's aspirations for a better life." Under this governance of "putting people first," the Chinese government has been always working together with the Chinese people to build a harmonious society where people can live "a better life." Simple pursuit Li, 34, comes from Tangshan county in East China's Anhui Province. After going through wind and rain on the streets of Changzhou for eight years, his face now bears several lines. But he says he still enjoys his work as a delivery man. Li still remembers the hard times, but when the Global Times asked how he overcame those days, he simply said, "everything has passed. Our life is getting better and better." In March 2019, when Fei'er had just turned six months old, she started to sit in the delivery box on the footboard of her father's electric bike every morning and bumped along the way with his father as they began their journey to deliver meals. During that time, Li said he really couldn't think of any other solution - Fei'er had suddenly contracted pneumonia when she was five months old, and the family's savings were nearly depleted because of it. At that time, his wife had just found a new job selling meat at a market. She had to start working at 4 am every morning. The elderly family members of the couple were also unable to help. The family decided to stand together to overcome the hardship. Each day became a relay of love. In the morning, little Fei'er stayed in the delivery box, weaving through the city's streets and alleys with her father; by 11 am, she was dropped off at the market to be looked after by her mother. "Others at the market say that Fei'er is so little but has to work two jobs," her mother joked. Despite the difficulties, Fei'er grows up in an environment filled with love and companionship. She has become exceptionally considerate and optimistic. When Li is driving, she treats the electric bike like a rocking chair, sitting obediently in the delivery box. Sometimes, when Li rides with one hand free, Fei'er would remind him to be careful. Her smile is particularly infectious. A photo of her smiling while sitting in a takeout box is still circulating widely on social media platforms. At that time, some colleagues and customers would remind him that it was not safe to take his daughter with him during delivery work. He felt sorry for Fei'er, but had no choice. "I believed that as long as the family is together, everything will get better," he told the Global Times. The family gained online fame accidentally. At the very beginning, Li would share her daughter's moments on social media platforms as a record of their life. However, at the end of 2019, some unscrupulous social media page stole his videos and made up a story titled "a father and daughter abandoned by mother had to deliver meals together." Upon discovering this, Li immediately reported it to the police and created a new social media account to clarify the truth. So far, Li's account has posted 659 pieces of content, gaining 2.18 million followers and receiving 75.15 million likes. With the love of millions of followers, Fei'er grows day by day, learning to feed herself with a spoon, washing the dishes, and moving into the new house.
