South Africa hopes to ease crippling blackouts as major power station recovers_我的网站

A |     JOHANNESBURG -- South African officials are hoping that the gradual recovery of one of the country's biggest coal-fired power stations will reduce crippling power blackouts.At least two units at the Kusile power station have been restored in the last three weeks, adding 1,600 megawatts to the national grid and reducing the rolling power blackouts, which can last up to 12 hours a day.The units have been out of service since they broke down in October last year, contributing significantly to the blackouts, known in South Africa as loadshedding.The two units were restored nearly two months ahead of schedule and two more are expected to be brought back online before the end of the year, officials said.While the full recovery of the power station is unlikely to end all power blackouts, it is seen as a significant step toward resolving the power crisis that has severely affected households and the country’s economy.The Kusile power station has six generating units capable of producing 800 megawatts each, making it one of the biggest coal-fired power stations in the world with a total capacity of 4,800 megawatts of electricity.“Both units are adding 1,600 megawatts back into the grid, thereby improving the available generation capacity. This signifies that Eskom is on the right path to reducing and ultimately ending loadshedding,” Daphne Mokwena, spokesperson for power utility Eskom, said Tuesday.The government remains under pressure to bring Kusile and another power station, Medupi, up to full operation. Construction delays, cost overruns and allegations of corruption have besieged both power stations since their construction began in 2007.South Africa has committed to a transition from a heavy reliance on coal for electricity generation to cleaner sources including solar, wind and battery storage. The transition has secured funding pledges of up to $8.5 billion from France, the U.K, Germany, the U.S. and the European Union.However, the country's electricity crisis has led the government to consider prolonging the lifespan of its aging power stations.The country has also launched a program to secure additional electricity from neighboring countries.。据1月10日《每日经济新闻》报道，腾讯互动娱乐与“英雄联盟”开发商first game宣布成立合资公司“腾锦体育”，将组建一支专门的电子体育团队。据报道，腾讯集团高级副总裁马晓毅是董事会主席，腾讯互动娱乐英雄联盟（Tencent Mutual Entertainment Heroes Alliance）有限责任合伙公司（LPL）总裁金一波是中国区业务主管，首屈一指的李连松（Leo Lin Song）是联合首席执行官。腾津体育不仅负责围绕中国英雄联赛核心赛事管理和整体运作，还负责国际拳赛和商务代理商的本地化和推广。成立腾锦体育，就是要使英雄联盟独立于中国企业，建立以市场为导向的主公司，进一步整合竞争资源，开放产业链上下游，扩大业务多元化和可持续发展。防暴游戏，美国在线游戏开发商，成立于2006年，是英雄联盟的代表作。2008年，腾讯成为主要股东。2011年2月，腾讯花费大量资金收购了90%以上的股份。2015年12月17日，防暴游戏在其官方网站上宣布，其主要股东腾讯已收购了公司的剩余股份，这意味着腾讯已实现对公司的100%控制。
