State Grid Shu Yinbiao talked about the ultra-high voltage transmission technology is expected to solve the problem of domestic energy imbalance

"The innovation of State Grid is to develop the world's most advanced UHV transmission technology, which is a long-distance, large-capacity, low-loss transmission technology
.
The revolution in the energy field, represented by new energy, smart grid, large-scale modern energy storage technology, and the development of electric vehicles, may give birth to a new round of industrial revolution
.
Recently, Shu Yinbiao, chairman of the State Grid Corporation of China, said
in an interview with reporters during the B20 summit.

According to reports, more than 75% of China's energy resources are in the north of the west, and the load center is mainly in the central and eastern regions, two or three thousand kilometers apart, through UHV transmission technology can directly send western energy to the east
.
According to the planning of the State Grid, the scale of west-to-east power transmission will reach more than
300 million kilowatts during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period.

UHV transmission technology has been successfully developed and applied in China, solving the problem of domestic energy imbalance, and also providing realistic alternative technical solutions and operating experience for the development and delivery of large-scale renewable energy bases around the world in the future, Shu Yinbiao said
.

State Grid has about ten interconnected lines with neighboring countries, and exchanges about 20 billion kilowatt-hours
of electricity every year.
Shu Yinbiao said that State Grid actively responded to the initiative put forward by President Xi Jinping at the UN Development Summit on September 26 last year to "explore the construction of a global energy Internet to meet global electricity demand in a clean and green way", the global energy Internet is a wider and wider range of power grid interconnection, clean energy instead of fossil energy is the general direction
of energy development.

In particular, the B20's proposal to the G20 mentions that the Global Infrastructure Connectivity Alliance should explore the potential impact and feasibility of establishing new industry or regional projects, including the Global Energy Interconnection (GEI).

"In the future, some new energy sources, such as the Sahara Desert or some large wind power bases, if the energy storage technology can be commercialized, they can be developed and transported thousands of kilometers away using UHV technology to solve the problem of
new energy development.
" Shu Yinbiao said
.

In the interview, Shu Yinbiao also mentioned the two world-leading technologies of State Grid, one is safety control technology, according to reports, China's power grid is currently the world's highest level of security, depending on the efficient power system and power grid control and protection technology with independent intellectual property rights; The other is the largest scale of new energy access, China's renewable energy has achieved 35% of the proportion, the installed capacity of new energy power generation is about to exceed 200 million kilowatts, the world's largest new energy access to the power grid, which mainly relies on smart grid technology
.

Shu Yinbiao said that in the face of the general trend of energy transformation and supporting low-carbon economic development, State Grid will further study more advanced technologies, including energy storage technology, electric vehicles, grid-friendly new energy power generation technology, etc
