State Grid will build a world-class energy internet enterprise with "three types and two networks"

China Energy Storage Network News: The 2019 work conference held by State Grid Corporation of China recently revealed that the company will comprehensively promote the construction of a world-class energy Internet enterprise with "three types and two networks".

The so-called "three types" refer to hub-type enterprises, platform-type enterprises, and sharing-type enterprises, and the "two networks" refer to the construction and operation of a strong smart grid and a ubiquitous power Internet of Things. "Building a 'three-type' enterprise is an important starting point for building a world-class energy Internet enterprise, and building and operating the 'two networks' well is an important material foundation for building a world-class energy Internet enterprise." State Grid Chairman Kou Wei emphasized. The company will make three years of efforts to initially build a world-class energy Internet enterprise with global competitiveness by the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party in 2021.

Among them, hub-type enterprises reflect the industrial attributes of State Grid, which means that we must give full play to the hub role of the power grid in energy collection, transmission, conversion and utilization, and promote the construction of a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system; platform-type enterprises reflect the company's network attributes, which means that we must use the energy Internet as a support to build an energy configuration platform, a comprehensive service platform and a new business, new format and new model development platform, so that platform value development becomes an important way to cultivate the company's core competitive advantage; sharing-type enterprises reflect the social attributes of State Grid, which means that we must establish the concept of openness, cooperation and win-win, actively and orderly promote investment and market opening, attract more social capital and various market players to participate in the construction and value mining of the energy Internet, drive the common development of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, create an energy Internet ecosystem of co-construction, co-governance and win-win, and share development results with the whole society.

Regarding the "two grids", Kou Wei said that on the one hand, we must persevere in building and operating a strong smart grid with ultra-high voltage as the backbone grid and coordinated development of power grids at all levels; on the other hand, we must make full use of modern information technologies and advanced communication technologies such as mobile Internet and artificial intelligence to achieve the interconnection of all things and human-computer interaction in all aspects of the power system, and create a ubiquitous power Internet of Things with comprehensive status perception, efficient information processing, and convenient and flexible application.

It is understood that in the past 2018, State Grid fully implemented the major deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and all work has achieved phased results: the company implemented the deployment of winning the battle against poverty, launched the construction of power grids in the deeply impoverished areas of the "three districts and two prefectures", implemented the "State Grid Sunshine Poverty Alleviation Action" plan, and built 11 photovoltaic poverty alleviation power stations in Maduo County, Qinghai Province, which is a designated assistance area, to help the Shennongjia Forest District in Hubei Province get rid of poverty; implemented the deployment of winning the battle against pollution, and while the installed capacity of new energy grid-connected increased by 22% year-on-year, the wind and solar power abandonment rate decreased by 5.2 percentage points, completing the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. More than 2.1 million households in Hebei and its surrounding areas and the Fenwei Plain have replaced coal with electricity, and the natural gas interconnection and power supply supporting project has delivered electricity on schedule; implemented the deployment to optimize the business environment, promoted the new "three zero" electricity service model for small and micro enterprises in Beijing and Shanghai, and promoted my country's ranking in the World Bank's "Access to Electricity" index from 98th to 14th, making an important contribution to the improvement of China's overall ranking of the business environment from 78th to 46th; implemented the deployment to reduce corporate energy costs, and newly reduced electricity costs for various customers by 91.5 billion yuan, exceeding the goal of "reducing the average electricity price for general industrial and commercial enterprises by 10%."

In terms of power grid construction, the Shanghai Temple-Shandong ±800 kV UHV DC transmission project was put into operation on schedule, the Sutong GIL pipeline tunnel project was successfully connected, and four AC projects such as Mengxi-Jinzhong were started; the "five AC and five DC" UHV was included in the national plan, and the first Qinghai-Henan UHV DC project mainly used for the transmission of new energy started construction. At the same time, the Tibet-China interconnection was completed and put into operation, and the 750 kV third channel of the Hexi Corridor and five pumped storage power stations were successively started. In addition, 28 world-class distribution network pilot demonstration areas such as the Beijing Urban Sub-Center were completed with high quality, and the construction of supporting projects for the Beijing Winter Olympics was started. A new round of rural power grid transformation and upgrading projects was in-depth, and 74 well-off electricity demonstration counties and 2,311 natural villages were completed on schedule.

It is understood that in order to speed up the construction of a world-class energy Internet enterprise with "three types and two networks", State Grid has recently accelerated its pace of action, such as actively promoting the full implementation of power reform and state-owned enterprise reform, and issuing ten measures to deepen reform; promoting the shareholding reform of trading institutions, and starting trial operation of Gansu and Shanxi electricity spot markets.

In addition, the company also issued the "Opinions on Restarting Reform in the New Era and Accelerating the Construction of a World-Class Energy Internet Enterprise", which will promote the deep integration of power grids and the Internet, focus on building an energy Internet; cultivate and expand new development momentum, and innovate energy Internet business models; expand openness, cooperation and sharing, and create an energy Internet ecosystem; firmly promote power reform and give play to the decisive role of the market in allocating resources; transform the management system and mechanism, and strive to enhance the endogenous driving force of the enterprise; optimize business management strategies and promote quality and efficiency-oriented development; deepen the reform of the three systems, mobilize and stimulate the vitality of cadres and employees; innovate international business development methods, and promote internationalization to a new level.
