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.。 8月22日,第二届世界人形机器人运动会在国家速滑馆正式开幕。
在100米大型组(身高>1.4米)预赛中,天卓队、风火闪电队和宇树科技队分在同一小组,分别跑出9.39秒、9.47秒和12.41秒的成绩,第一名9.39秒的成绩超越博尔特的人类百米世界纪录。
百米预赛成绩排名 天卓队的机器人选手是来自北京人形机器人创新中心的天工Ultra,在立定跳高项目中,天工Ultra也以2.88m的成绩打破世界纪录。

B | 据北京人形机器人创新中心介绍,相比去年,机器人的关节和构型都进行了迭代优化,外形上采用了轻量化、破风设计,让机器人更适合高速奔跑;算法上,团队基于慧思开物平台的运控、导航等能力,优化了算法框架,让算法更适合高速奔跑,还针对不同的赛项进行了针对性优化;相比去年,机器人的自主导航和路线规划能力也获得了优化,通过定位建图,机器人不用再看赛道线也能精准的保持赛道内高速奔跑;此外,在争取高速的同时,团队也还是保持机器人的拟人奔跑,姿态稳定。 根据赛程,100米赛跑将共有9组40支队伍参赛,预赛后将根据成绩产生晋级队伍,复赛和决赛将分别在25日和26日晚间举行。 22日晚,宇树科技发布声明称,在这次大会上大家将看到多款宇树人形机器人亮相赛场。与往届情况相仿,其中部分为宇树自有团队参赛,其余则由宇树的客户或合作伙伴,基于宇树机器人平台进行二次开发后参与赛事。

C | 宇树科技表示:“很遗憾,受限于时间精力和新款机器人数量和测试的限制,我们只能缩减几项已报名参赛项目。公司过往精力主要在量产产品上,很抱歉没能顾全赛事准备。感谢社会各界长期以来对我们的关注与支持,预祝所有参赛队伍赛出风采,共同刷新机器人运动的全新纪录。
