China Southern Power Grid invests RMB 100 billion in five years

China Southern Power Grid Corporation held a meeting on agricultural power on the 22nd and announced that it will invest 111.6 billion yuan in the construction and transformation of county-level power grids within 5 years, and strive to build a new type of rural power grid that is "safe, reliable, energy-saving, environmental-friendly, technologically advanced, and standardized." Among them, the overseas Chinese farm network will be taken over.

At present, in the five southern provinces (Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Hainan), the total economic output below the county level and counties accounts for about one-third of the total economic output, and the rural electricity sales account for about a quarter of the company’s electricity sales. one. The electricity consumption structure in rural areas has also changed significantly. The share of industrial electricity consumption at or below the county level has increased to 60%, while the share of traditional agricultural electricity consumption has decreased significantly, and the share of rural lighting and agricultural irrigation and drainage has dropped to 18%.

Zhao Jianguo, chairman of China Southern Power Grid Corporation, stated that in the future, as the economic development pattern of five provinces, counties and counties has been transformed and the living standards of farmers have been continuously improved, the demand for power supply capacity, power supply quality and service levels of rural power grids will also be higher and higher.

China Southern Power Grid plans to reconstruct the unreconstructed rural power grid in the next five years, and use 2-3 years to solve the problem of low renovation and historical debts in some areas; Rural power grids with inadequate power supply capacity are also undergoing upgrades; and rural power grids that have outstanding problems in the production and use of electricity in agriculture must be addressed in a targeted manner, focusing on the power supply for urgently needed farmland irrigation facilities and special agricultural products in major grain-producing areas. The facilities will be transformed to improve the power supply capacity of agricultural production.

It is understood that six overseas Chinese farms in Hainan have been taken over. In the future, the overseas Chinese farms and agricultural and forestry farms will be taken over in time. He Xiqiang, deputy general manager of China Southern Power Grid, revealed that it will further promote the reform of the rural power system and realize the integration of urban and rural power supply and reduce the gap between urban and rural areas in terms of power grid construction, power quality, and quality services.

It is reported that China Southern Power Grid Corporation has invested more than 80 billion yuan in rural network reconstruction funds, which helped a total of 1.39 million households without electricity to solve the problem of electricity consumption. Guangdong and other four provinces and districts have achieved power supply for households within the coverage of the power grid, basically solving the problem. The problem of farmers using "power". China Southern Power Grid's power supply reaches 90% of the area, and the service population accounts for 93% of the total population. Through the implementation of “two reforms and one price”, the average rural-to-home electricity price has dropped from 1.23 yuan per kilowatt-hour before 1998 to 0.55 yuan per kilowatt, a drop of 55%. The preliminary calculation shows that only the price of domestic electricity will decrease, and the annual electricity price will decrease. Farmers’ electricity costs 7.568 billion yuan.
