When Zhurong-class 002 arrived at Venus, it was already January 5, 2020.
Cheng Lin's team knew they could not afford to waste any more time. Their working period on Venus was only around twenty-four months.
Nearly five months had passed since their arrival on Venus, leaving them with only about nineteen months.
Moreover, when working on another planet, schedules could not be too tight. They had to reserve one or two months for emergencies.
After Zhurong 002 arrived, Cheng Lin and Wang Yunhai began remotely deploying the completed functional modules into the floating city, one after another.
Once the wind power generation modules were assembled onto the floating city, they were connected to the existing carbon powder energy storage generation modules, followed by the power distribution and control modules.
Because the winds in Venus's atmosphere were excessively strong, the wind turbines used specially designed vertical-axis blades capable of generating power regardless of wind direction.
The windmill-style blades commonly used on Blue Star were not particularly suitable for Venus's atmosphere.
Amid the fierce winds, rows upon rows of wind turbines spun continuously. Their contactless magnetic levitation bearings meant there was no need to worry about mechanical wear.
"Captain, power generation has stabilized. The current minimum output is 60,000 megawatts, while the maximum is 136,000 megawatts," Wang Yunhai said as he examined the data.
"Venus's wind energy really is abundant. Begin setting the limits."
"Understood."
The limits were intended to prevent problems. Restricting the output of generation equipment could reduce production issues caused by unstable power.
After all, many industrial processes had extremely strict power supply requirements. Frequent fluctuations could potentially cause problems with the products.
Since the wind power modules fluctuated between 60,000 and 136,000 megawatts, they could generally only use the low-end figure of 60,000 megawatts. To ensure absolute safety,
