Recently, we learned from the State Grid Corporation that in order to implement the work tasks of the comprehensive construction stage of the strong smart grid and steadily promote the construction of smart grid projects, the State Grid Corporation issued the 2015 Smart Grid Project Construction Opinion.

According to the China Electric Power News Network on March 19, the State Grid Corporation will steadily promote the construction of smart grid promotion projects, organize the promotion and construction of smart grid dispatching control systems, new energy power prediction and operation control systems, complete the upgrade and transformation of 36 ground adjustment systems, covering all grid-connected wind farms and photovoltaic power stations; organize the promotion and construction of power transmission and transformation equipment status monitoring systems and distribution automation systems, covering 180,000 kilometers of transmission lines and 76 cities respectively; organize the construction of smart substations, and build 1,400 new smart substations; organize the construction of electricity consumption information collection systems, install 60.6 million smart energy meters, and build and put into operation the "three lines and one ring" highway intercity interconnection fast charging network.

State Grid Corporation will carefully organize the smart grid innovation demonstration project, comprehensively carry out the construction of 41 smart grid innovation demonstration projects in 6 categories, and strive to create a number of internationally leading smart grid boutique projects and highlight projects. These projects include: supporting new energy development projects, supporting distributed power application projects, promoting convenient electricity use projects, promoting electric vehicle development projects, serving smart city construction projects and improving grid intelligence projects.

At the same time, State Grid Corporation will actively apply for and undertake national 863 plan projects and science and technology support plan projects, national strategic emerging industry projects, national smart grid comprehensive standardization pilot projects, international smart grid technology cooperation projects and other smart grid projects approved by relevant state ministries and commissions, strengthen coordination and organization, and ensure the successful completion of annual construction tasks.

State Grid Corporation will also continue to carry out smart grid technology research and evaluation, focus on a number of the latest cutting-edge technologies, ensure that the core technology of State Grid Corporation's smart grid is internationally leading; research and develop breakthroughs in some practical key equipment, and continuously transform and apply smart grid technology achievements; investigate and evaluate typical provincial smart grids, and objectively measure the level of grid intelligence.

Analysts at Bank of China International said that from central policies to local policies, from comprehensive policies to segmented policies, they are constantly being strengthened and refined, and will fully support the transformation of energy production and consumption methods. The core is to establish an energy development method with electricity as the core carrier, including new energy power generation technology (photovoltaic, wind power, etc.), new smart grid technology, new electricity electrification technology, and new energy conservation and emission reduction technologies across the entire power/electrical energy development method. With the frequent issuance of supporting policies, the heat of the industrial chain such as new energy and smart grid will continue to rise.
