On July 29, State Grid Corporation of China held a mobilization meeting for the start of the Gansu-Zhejiang ±800 kV UHV DC project, in-depth study and implementation of the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, to serve the overall work of the Party and the country with practical actions, and better support and serve China's modernization. Gansu Provincial Party Secretary Changsheng Hu, Zhejiang Provincial Party Secretary Lianhong Yi, Gansu Provincial Party Deputy Secretary and Governor Zhenhe Ren, Zhejiang Provincial Party Deputy Secretary, and Governor Hao Wang, the company's chairman and party group secretary Zhigang Zhang, the company's general manager and party group deputy secretary Xiaogang Pang attended the meeting. Gansu Provincial Party Committee Member and Executive Vice Governor Xiaobo Cheng, Provincial Party Committee Member and Provincial Party Committee Secretary Wei Zhang, China Huadian Corporation General Manager and Party Group Deputy Secretary Xiangdong Ye attended the meeting at the Gansu venue. Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee Member and Executive Vice Governor Wenguang Xu, Provincial Party Committee Member, and Provincial Party Committee Secretary Qiwen attended the meeting at the Zhejiang venue. The company's deputy general manager and party group member Jingdong Pan presided over the meeting.
At about 11 a.m., Changsheng Hu, Lianhong Yi, Zhenhe Ren, Hao Wang, Zhigang Zhang, and Xiaogang Pang jointly started the project.
Zhenhe Ren said that the start of the Gansu-Zhejiang UHV project is a concrete action to promote the development of the western region in the new era to form further a new pattern of great protection, great opening up, and high-quality development. It is an important measure to accelerate the construction of the Shagohuang large-scale wind power and photovoltaic base and build a new power system. It is significant to better promote regional coordinated development and cultivate and develop new quality productivity according to local conditions. It will effectively promote the transformation of Gansu's energy resource advantages, promote the revolution in energy production and consumption, and ensure the safety and stability of the industrial chain and supply chain. Gansu will actively provide services, advance services, and provide meticulous services, and strive to build the project into a new model of central-local cooperation, a new support for energy security, and a new demonstration of the energy revolution.
Hao Wang said that the start of the Gansu-Zhejiang UHV project is a concrete measure to implement General Secretary Jinping Xi's new energy security strategy of "four revolutions and one cooperation". It is of great significance and far-reaching impact and will help Zhejiang improve its energy security capabilities, optimize the energy supply structure, and accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation. Zhejiang will act upon orders, exert its full strength, strengthen the special team, take the initiative to provide services, go all out to speed up the work, strive for excellence in quality, and keep a vigilant eye on safety. Together with all parties, we will create a landmark era project and strive to complete the project and put it into operation as soon as possible to bring benefits. It is hoped that the State Grid Corporation of China will continue to support Zhejiang's high-quality development and provide a strong power guarantee for Zhejiang to meet the peak summer demand.
Zhigang Zhang said that the construction of the Gansu-Zhejiang UHV project is a concrete practice to thoroughly implement the important instructions of General Secretary Jinping Xi and better promote the revolution in energy production and consumption.
This is a major project to ensure safe and reliable power supply and serve regional coordinated development. After the project is completed, it can transmit more than 36 billion kWh of electricity to Zhejiang every year, realizing complementary advantages in resource markets.
This is a green project to promote clean and low-carbon energy transformation and accelerate the construction of a new power system. After the project is completed, it can promote the consumption of new energy electricity by more than 21 billion kWh and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 17 million tons every year, supporting the large-scale development and utilization of clean energy.
This is a demonstration project to cultivate and develop new quality productivity and promote high-level scientific and technological self-reliance. For the first time, the independently developed UHV flexible DC technology was used at both the sending and receiving ends, and key technologies such as large-capacity flexible DC conversion and high-proportion new energy grid connection were overcome to consolidate my country's leading advantage in UHV transmission technology.
This is a livelihood project to expand effective investment and help stabilize expectations, growth, and employment. It can drive investment of more than 80 billion yuan in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, and play a positive role in promoting common prosperity, promoting high-quality full employment, and improving people's well-being. The company will give full play to the advantages of the group, carefully organize, deploy, and manage, and make every effort to ensure the high-quality and efficient advancement of the project.
