On April 2, State Grid Corporation of China held the first meeting of the "New Infrastructure" Leading Group to thoroughly study and implement the important speeches and instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping, accelerate the construction of new infrastructure, take on great responsibilities and show new achievements in implementing the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee, seize new opportunities, achieve new breakthroughs, and accelerate the construction of an internationally leading energy Internet enterprise with Chinese characteristics. Mao Weiming, Chairman and Secretary of the Party Committee of the company, presided over the meeting and delivered a speech. Xin Baoan, General Manager and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of the company, Liu Zehong, Deputy General Manager and Member of the Party Committee of the company, and Zhang Zhigang, Deputy General Manager and Member of the Party Committee, made speeches at the meeting.

The meeting pointed out that on March 4 this year, General Secretary Xi Jinping, at the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, made work arrangements to accelerate the construction of new infrastructure from the perspective of coordinating the prevention and control of the epidemic and economic and social development. Recently, General Secretary Xi Jinping once again emphasized the need to seize the construction of new infrastructure during his inspection in Zhejiang. The Party Central Committee has made this major deployment based on the current situation and with a long-term perspective, which will surely provide a powerful engine for achieving high-quality economic development and provide strong support for my country's participation in a new round of global competition. It is of great significance. "New infrastructure" is an urgent need to stabilize investment and growth. "New infrastructure" has high technical content, a long industrial chain, strong driving force, and broad market prospects. It can not only effectively promote the "six stability" and enhance confidence, but also promote the long-term healthy and sustainable development of the economy. "New infrastructure" is a strong support for adjusting the structure and improving quality. New digital infrastructure represented by 5G networks is conducive to cultivating strategic emerging industries. New energy infrastructure represented by ultra-high voltage is conducive to promoting energy structure adjustment and clean and low-carbon development. "New infrastructure" is an important measure to promote consumption and benefit people's livelihood. The continuous emergence of new consumption, new services and new business models will inevitably bring many application scenarios in social governance, smart energy, green travel and other aspects, and better meet the people's needs for a better life.

Mao Weiming said that the "new infrastructure" deployed by the central government involves seven areas, including 5G networks, ultra-high voltage, intercity high-speed railways and intercity rail transit, new energy vehicle charging piles, big data centers, artificial intelligence, and industrial Internet, which are closely related to the company's work. It not only puts forward clear requirements for the company to fulfill its responsibilities as a central enterprise and play the role of a "powerful tool of a great country", but also provides an important opportunity for the company to accelerate the development of the power grid, promote transformation and upgrading, and cultivate growth momentum. The company should further enhance its understanding of the importance of "new infrastructure", accelerate the construction of an internationally leading energy Internet enterprise with Chinese characteristics, and make new contributions to serving the building of a well-off society in an all-round way.

Mao Weiming stressed that it is necessary to clarify key tasks and further accelerate the implementation of major projects. Strengthen the effective connection between top-level design and stratification, pay attention to the organic combination of the overall and local, coordinate the relationship between macro and micro, internal and external, and resolutely win the people's war, total war, and blocking war of epidemic prevention and control with the bearing, strength and detail, and pay close attention to the implementation of work. The general requirements are: to thoroughly study and implement the important speech of General Secretary Xi Jinping, to seize the great opportunities and favorable opportunities of the country's "new infrastructure", to comprehensively accelerate the construction of key projects of "new infrastructure", to comprehensively improve the interconnection and sharing of large power grids, to focus on safety and stability, to keep the "lifeline" of safety, to focus on technological innovation, to overcome the "stuck neck" problem, to focus on improving quality and efficiency, to improve the efficiency of equipment use, to drive the development of the industrial chain of the whole society, and to make new contributions to the economic and social development of the State Grid. Specifically, "three accelerations and one strengthening" should be achieved. Accelerate the construction of UHV engineering projects. Coordinate the work of various links such as pre-planning, material supply, manpower guarantee, construction coordination, and equipment transportation to ensure the completion of the "3 AC and 1 DC" project within the year, and strive to complete the direct current projects of Shaanxi-Hubei and Ya'an-Jiangxi next year. Promote the approval of projects such as the Central China AC grid and Baihetan 2-circuit DC transmission that have been included in the national plan as soon as possible. Accelerate the development of new energy vehicle charging business. Adhere to the Internet of Vehicles platform as the leading factor, charging piles as the basis, and standards as the guide, actively build a national charging network to help the development of the new energy vehicle industry. Adhere to the concept of mutual benefit and win-win, strengthen cooperation with charging pile operators, electric vehicle manufacturers and other parties, and actively cultivate new business models. Accelerate the promotion and application of modern information and communication technology. Based on the company's own advantages, deepen cooperation with telecommunications operators and other parties, and actively promote 5G demonstration applications. Build and operate a big data center, assist enterprises in production and operation internally, and provide data value-added services externally. Actively expand the application of artificial intelligence in equipment operation and maintenance, power grid dispatching, intelligent customer service and other aspects. Strengthen the supporting power construction of "new infrastructure" projects. Closely follow the progress of "new infrastructure" projects, continuously optimize the power business environment, fully consider the additional electricity demand brought about by "new infrastructure", dynamically optimize the power grid construction standards, strive to eliminate weak links, and specifically increase the design capacity of the power grid in key areas, maintain the necessary margin, and adapt to future development needs.

Mao Weiming requested that the organization and leadership of the "new infrastructure" work should be further strengthened. To strengthen the implementation of responsibilities, the leading group should do a good job in organization and coordination, solve problems in a timely manner, and all departments and units should decompose tasks layer by layer and consolidate responsibilities step by step. Strengthen innovation-driven, focus on key areas, carry out technical research, and strengthen research on high-power charging, 5G, big data, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and other technologies.
