  1. Construction deal for section of high-speed railway signed TUESDAY, JULY 25, 2023 The joint venture, which comprises Italian-Thai Development and China Railway No. 10 Engineering Group, won the contract for construction project no. 3-1, covering the Kaeng Khoi - Klang Dong and Pang Asoke - Bandai Ma sections. https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/economy/40029665 A secret Contract for the Renewal of the Rails in Sarajevo with a Chinese Company which has a problematic Past In June 2021, the Government of CS awarded a contract worth 20.4 million euros to a consortium of Chinese companies – “China Shandong International Economic and Technical Cooperation Group” (Shandong) and “China Railway No.10 Engineering Group Co.” (CREC 10). Namely, the last company is a member of the “China Railway Engineering Corporation (CREC)” family. BIRN BiH can now confirm that this Chinese corporation is linked to a series of accidents that resulted in injuries or deaths to workers. https://sarajevotimes.com/a-secret-contract-for-the-renewal-of-the-rails-in-sarajevo-with-a-chinese-company-which-has-a-problematic-past/ Peru Freezes Contracts with Chinese Companies: All the Chinese companies eventually end up being sister [companies] or subsidiaries and have different corporate names. For this project a first bidder was CTCEG, but its parent company Railway No. 10 Construction also participated as a bidder. It did not win, it came in fourth place,” Pérez de Cuéllar told news site Perú 21. “There would be a kind of agreement or in some way a cartel, because they submit bids with different corporate names, but in the end they all end up responding to a parent company, which is the same thing.” https://dialogo-americas.com/articles/peru-freezes-contracts-with-chinese-companies/ Chinese company probes bridge collapse in Kenya 2017-06-29 13:00 GMT+8 A bridge under construction on River Nzioa in western Kenya collapsed on Monday, injuring at least 27 workers, Kenyan media reported.

  4. Very good report, but it would also be interesting to learn more about the Thai construction company involved, Italian-Thai Development Pcl, which was also involved in the Rama II incident just two weeks earlier in which six people were killed! The incident, in which a concrete beam structure collapsed onto the construction site of the Dao Khanong Expressway Bridge and has almost been forgotten in public reporting and perception...
  5. Could this be the usual procedure, except that at some point, emergency services were notified because this case involved a high-pro-file case? All types of deaths in Thai prisons aren't that rare, but they don't receive the same level of attention as in this case...
  6. Friendship with Putin & Kim instead …
  7. Thank you very much, I had checked the page a few times before and always overlooked it, without your help it would never have worked, funnily enough on the Thai language page there is no information on Type 2 only on CCS 2 ...
  8. Thank you again for your hint , which I had completely ignored, although I was aware of the Seal's meager 7kW limitation. I can now add a little anecdote to this: when I informed my PV installer that I would be postponing the planned charger upgrade indefinitely due to the castrated EYD onboard charger, he again came up with the claim that the BYD Seal could supposedly charge 22 KW AC. This time he referred to the statements of the staff at our local BYD showroom. Which unfortunately confirms my already extremely negative impression of these staff, because they are usually constantly conspicuous for their lack of information and extremely nonsensical claims. I have the impression that my PV installer is more inclined to trust the statements of these people. There is no reference to this point on BYD's Thai websites, only the 150 KW DC charging power is advertised. The 2023 catalog also provides no reference to this. really reputable sources for the Thai model 2023. As far as the onboard charger is concerned, I haven't been able to find any so far. In contrast to the Australian model, for example, which was also sold with this 7 KW limitation.
  9. Yes, I am aware of the option and I have already hinted at it slightly in my comments, but it is very interesting to see what else you have written about it. My PV installer suggested that I implement a corresponding Huawei charger as a solution, certainly at a certain price. I then referred to my similarly well-equipped charger. But unfortunately, this great feature doesn't get me out of the annoying BYD single phase limitation either
  10. yes, it works with this charger, and that has tended to be my charging strategy, but so far I have orientated myself according to what the Huawei app has led me to believe...
  11. Also the Seal 2023, thanks for the tip, I had almost feared that too, everything points to that. BYD itself has not commented further, specifically about the onboard charger, at least as far as AC charging is concerned. As far as I remember, all the Thai versions of the car are 7.5 kW and thus significantly devalued, and the fact that BYD gave away the actually really great charger with only a one phase breaker speaks for itself...
  12. I will most likely ask my PV system installer to do this job. If I have understood you correctly, which you have taken so much trouble to explain to me, I think we can now expect the following from this three-phase upgrade of the charger: Firstly, the car will actually be charged predominantly with solar energy, secondly, logically, the previously necessary export imports should then at least be significantly reduced, thirdly, the charging costs should then logically be lower in the most favourable case, at least with this charger, if I adjust it manually or with the help of software with corresponding compatible electricity meters, actually charging almost 100% with solar energy! Fourthly, the discrepancy between the electricity meter from the power grid and the Huawei. electricity meter will decrease considerably. However, I assume that this discrepancy will remain in the one to lower double-digit range if the assumption is correct that the Huawei software at the top level does not correctly represent the actual exports/imports in the event that one phase requires more electricity than the solar system can supply, while at the same time the other two phases or even just one phase exports excess electricity at the same time. However, I think I could live with this outcome. Such an upgrade should: reduce the charging costs where the electricity can be sold to the electricity supplier by at least 50 % and otherwise by at least 66 %, This could mean that the upgrade would pay for itself in between one and a half and seven years ... Unfortunately, I first bought an electric car for which I was given a single-phase device including installation as a free extra. It was only six months later that I decided to have the PV system installed and then another six months later that I received the three-phase ABB as a free extra with my second electric car. From what the Huawei app and also the website on the top level showed me, I stupidly assumed that we would charge both our cars mainly with solar energy. Another six months later, almost a year and a half after the PV system was installed, the electricity provider finally installed the digital electricity meter and the rest is history...
  13. Heureka, wow, that's it, now I've finally understood it, thank you very much for the patient, small-scale curve discussion, please forgive me for my clumsiness, lack of solid basic knowledge of electrics, last night when I read this I found it very difficult to accept what you were asking me to do, but after a good night's sleep everything is fine. and I also agree with your assumption that the Huawei software unfortunately omits this necessary import and export,-(
  14. About 21kWh „Est. solar energy 0 kWh (0 %)“ ????? The device does not seem to actually detect the source of the energy although it claims to, cause is not configured with the grid meter, probably not compatible too …
