Group 1 - The article highlights the upgrade and transformation of the 10 kV Tongping Agricultural II Line in She Shang Village, aimed at enhancing the power supply reliability during the summer peak demand [1][2] - The project involves the installation of 135 new 12-meter high electric poles and a total of 7.299 kilometers of new lines, which will significantly improve the safety and efficiency of the power grid [2] - The upgrade will optimize the path of the power line, making maintenance and fault detection easier, thus ensuring a stable power supply for local residents during the hot summer months [2]

Core Insights - The UK is facing a significant backlog in renewable energy projects awaiting grid connection, with over 770 GW of projects pending, far exceeding the current installed capacity of around 60 GW [1] - The average waiting time for renewable energy projects to connect to the grid has surpassed 6 years, with about 30% of installations facing delays of over 10 years [1] - The backlog is hindering the UK's energy transition, with the annual growth rate of renewable energy generation dropping to 4.45% over the past three years, below the medium to long-term target of over 20% [1] Grid Connection Issues - The core issue lies in the rigid grid connection mechanism and outdated grid investment planning [2] - The management of grid connection is characterized by a "first-come, first-served" principle, allowing developers to queue regardless of project feasibility, leading to speculative applications and a high number of "zombie projects" [3] - Regulatory mechanisms have resulted in insufficient grid investment, exacerbating the backlog problem [4] Reform Initiatives - The UK has introduced the "TMO4+" reform to address the backlog and inefficiencies in planning, focusing on a demand-driven approach and verifying project maturity [6] - A dual-threshold admission standard will be implemented, replacing the traditional queuing system with a "ready to connect" mechanism, which requires projects to demonstrate feasibility and alignment with the UK's 2030 carbon peak planning [6] - The reform is expected to eliminate approximately 68% of "zombie projects," freeing up resources for viable projects [6] Dynamic Queue Optimization - The reform includes a "process elimination system" to remove overdue projects from the queue, thereby releasing grid capacity [7] - A "flexible replacement" rule will allow mature projects to fill capacity gaps quickly, and regional capacity rebalancing will address structural imbalances in energy distribution [7] - A streamlined approval process will be established, integrating various departmental procedures into a "one-stop" platform to reduce administrative time costs [7] Investment in Grid Infrastructure - The UK plans to invest £35 billion in the largest grid upgrade project globally from 2026 to 2031, focusing on enhancing renewable energy transmission and grid flexibility [9] - Over £11 billion will be allocated for maintenance and upgrades of existing transmission networks, while approximately £24 billion will support strategic transmission investments [9] - The upgrade will involve enhancing around 3,500 km of overhead lines to nearly double transmission capacity and deploying innovative technologies [9] Lessons for Other Markets - Other markets, such as China, can learn from the UK's experience by ensuring adequate infrastructure investment and optimizing priority mechanisms and approval efficiency [11] - Emphasizing "proactive grid investment" principles and enhancing the capacity of transmission networks in renewable-rich areas are crucial [11] - A unified management approach can prevent fragmented development and ensure coordinated resource allocation [12] - Prioritizing mature projects and implementing a dynamic scoring system for project prioritization can help avoid resource misallocation [13]

Core Viewpoint - The upgrade of the power grid in Zhangpu County's Jiuzhen Town is essential for supporting the local agricultural development, particularly in the context of increasing electricity demand due to the peak agricultural season [1][3]. Group 1: Agricultural Context - Jiuzhen Town is a core area for specialty agriculture in Zhangpu County, featuring extensive lychee orchards and rice fields [1]. - The current agricultural season is critical, with irrigation and pesticide application activities underway, highlighting the urgent need for reliable electricity supply [1]. Group 2: Power Grid Upgrade - The original power line, with a diameter of 95 square millimeters, was insufficient to meet the growing demands of irrigation, processing, and cold chain logistics [1]. - The power company replaced the existing 95 square millimeter insulated wire with a 180 square millimeter insulated wire over a distance of 700 meters, enhancing the reliability of the power supply [3]. - The upgrade involved the installation of three new knife switches and was completed in seven hours, ensuring uninterrupted power for over 400 households during the construction [3]. Group 3: Impact on Local Agriculture - The upgraded power supply is crucial for the lychee preservation process, allowing for immediate cooling after harvest, which is vital for maintaining quality [3]. - Local farmers expressed confidence in taking larger orders due to the improved reliability of the cold chain logistics following the power grid upgrade [3]. - The power company plans to continue optimizing the power grid layout to support the electricity needs of specialty agriculture, contributing to rural revitalization efforts [3].
