What happened
State Grid reported that the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area have completed their first cross-grid, cross-region electricity service.
A company applied for a power connection in Beijing's Haidian district, and through the grid's cross-network service, two transformers were successfully installed for its science project in Shenzhen.
This is the first such business handled jointly between the two major economic regions.
Why it matters
The cross-network mechanism allows the two power grids to share project data and electricity demand information in real time, which can help companies save both time and labor costs.
This pilot marks a step toward more integrated, streamlined power services across different regional grids in China.
Key facts
The service connected Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei with the Greater Bay Area for the first time.
A company in Beijing's Haidian district requested the power connection.
Two transformers were installed for a technology project in Shenzhen via the cross-network service.
What to watch next
Whether this cross-grid service model will be expanded to more regions across the country.
How the real-time sharing of core information between grids affects future project approval timelines.
