On August 3, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued the "15th Five-Year Plan for the Construction of a New Power System." The plan proposes to enhance power supply security to meet the high-reliability power supply needs of various computing facilities. It calls for coordinating energy resource allocation with computing facility construction, and synergistically planning and deploying computing and power projects to promote computing through electricity and vice versa. It also advocates developing new models such as integrated power generation, grid, load, and storage systems, and direct green electricity connections based on computing facilities, to achieve aggregated trading and local consumption of green electricity, thereby increasing the proportion of green electricity generated by computing facilities. Finally, it emphasizes strengthening the recovery and utilization of waste heat resources from computing facilities.On August 3, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued the "15th Five-Year Plan for the Construction of a New Power System." The plan proposes to improve the "1+N" basic rules system for the power market. It emphasizes strengthening the alignment and unification of local and national rules, improving the system for new entities to participate in the power market, continuously improving routine cross-grid trading, gradually reducing the scale of agency power purchases, improving the ancillary services market mechanism, exploring the construction of a capacity market mechanism, deepening the reform of the power pricing mechanism, promoting market-oriented reforms of on-grid tariffs for hydropower, nuclear power, and gas power, exploring the implementation of two-part or single-capacity transmission pricing for cross-provincial special projects, implementing pricing mechanisms to support the local consumption of new energy sources, improving the incentive and constraint mechanism for grid investment through transmission and distribution prices, studying relevant pricing mechanisms for offshore wind power transmission projects, optimizing the tiered pricing system for residential electricity, and promoting time-of-use pricing mechanisms for residential electricity.On August 3rd, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued the "15th Five-Year Plan for the Construction of a New Power System," which outlines the scientific determination of the layout and construction sequence of coastal nuclear power bases by 2030. The plan promotes large-scale nuclear power construction and actively advances the research, demonstration, and application of next-generation nuclear power technologies. It also emphasizes reducing the cost of small modular reactors (SMRs) through multiple measures and strengthening the comprehensive utilization of nuclear energy and innovation in business models. By 2030, the installed capacity of nuclear power will reach approximately 110 million kilowatts. Furthermore, the plan promotes the large-scale development of concentrated solar power (CSP), develops biomass and geothermal power generation according to local conditions, and advances the large-scale utilization of ocean energy. By 2030, the installed capacity of power generation from biomass, CSP, geothermal, and ocean energy will reach approximately 65 million kilowatts.On August 3, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued the "15th Five-Year Plan for the Construction of a New Power System." The plan aims to promote the construction and commissioning of hydropower projects in key river basins such as the upper reaches of the Jinsha River, the upper reaches of the Lancang River, the middle reaches of the Yalong River, and the Dadu River by 2030. It also aims to safely and orderly advance the construction of major projects such as the hydropower project in the lower reaches of the Yarlung Tsangpo River. The plan emphasizes strengthening the peak-load, regulation, and stability support capabilities of hydropower, and expanding the adjustable range and flexibility of power output. By 2030, the installed capacity of conventional hydropower will reach approximately 410 million kilowatts.According to Russias Foreign Intelligence Service, the EU plans to involve Kyiv in European security policy, but without voting rights.

As the US labor market strengthens and China CPI is anticipated, AUD / USD Appears Vulnerable Near 0.6600

The AUD / USD pair is displaying a back-and-forth pattern during the Asian session below the round-level resistance of 0.6600. The Australian asset appears vulnerable at the same time that the risk-aversion theme has been strengthened by intensifying fears of a U.S. recession and expectations of higher rates from the Federal Reserve (Fed).

 

S&P500 futures are displaying nominal losses following a fragile recovery move. It seems that the dead cat recovery move by the 500-US stocks basket is tapering away. The US Dollar Index (DXY) has turned sideways above 105.20 after a modest correction; however, the upside appears favored amid positive U.S. Employment data.

 

The robust addition of new jobs to the US labor market in February as a result of rising demand has validated Fed policymakers' concerns about persistent inflation. The United States Automatic Data Processing (ADP) reported an increase of 242K positions in February, exceeding both the expected increase of 200K and the previous release of 119K. As a result, Fed Chair Jerome Powell stated, "The Fed is prepared to announce more rates to reduce inflation."

 

The US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data, which will be released on Friday, will provide investors with greater insight into the state of the US labor market. In addition, the dissemination of the Unemployment Rate and Average Hourly Wages will be crucial.

 

The Australian Dollar has been under intensified pressure following the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) fifth consecutive 25 basis point (bps) rate hike and RBA Governor Philip Lowe's consideration of a policy-tightening suspension in response to a one-time blip in the monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI).

 

Investors are currently focused on China's Consumer Price Index (CPI) (February) data. It is anticipated that China's annual CPI will decrease to 1.9% from the previous release of 2.1%. The monthly CPI in China has been reduced to 0.2% from 0.8% previously. If inflation declines, the Chinese government and the People's Bank of China (PBOC) may be forced to infuse more liquidity into the economy.
