中国已投运40余项特高压交直流工程—— 特高压架起电力"闪送通道" 宁夏—湖南±800千伏特高压直流输电工程是我国首条获批的以输送"沙戈荒"风电光伏大基地新能源为主的特高压输电通道，每年可向湖南 输送电量超360亿千瓦时，其中新能源电量占比超50%。袁宏彦摄（人民视觉） 近日，甘肃至浙江±800千伏特高压直流输电工程安徽段进入架线施工阶段。图为在安徽省芜湖市南陵县，安徽送变电工程有限公司施工人 员在高空进行架线施工。郑贤列摄（人民视觉） 位于江苏省淮安市的1000千伏淮盱Ⅱ线检修现场，江苏省送变电有限公司检修人员对复合绝缘子进行更换作业。史 俊摄（人民视觉） 特高压输电线路，宛如能源版图中的"高速公路"，它将丰沛的电能资源，输送至千里之外的用电地区，确保电力平稳供 应。"十四五"时期，中国特高压工程稳步发展，截至目前，已累计投运特高压工程45项，预计今年底"西电东送"输电能力 超过3.4亿千瓦，较"十三五"末的2.7亿千瓦提升了25%。 全球规模最大 ——跨省跨区特高压直流输电通道加快建设，区域电网结构显著加强完善 要把位于川滇交界的白鹤滩水电站发出的绿色电能，送往千里之外的江苏，需要多长时间？ 答案是7毫秒 ...

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the reasons behind China's stable electricity supply during the summer despite record-high electricity consumption, highlighting the effective management of power generation, grid optimization, and energy storage solutions [4][5][8]. Group 1: Electricity Consumption and Supply - In July, China's electricity consumption exceeded 1 trillion kilowatt-hours for the first time, marking an 8.6% year-on-year increase [2][4]. - The total installed power generation capacity reached 3.67 billion kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of 18.2%, equivalent to the capacity of over 160 Three Gorges power stations [5]. Group 2: Power Generation Sources - New power generation projects have been launched, including the largest thermal power plant in the eastern coastal region and significant wind and hydropower projects in high-altitude areas [5]. - Renewable energy generation increased by 15.6% in the first half of the year, with one-third of the total electricity consumption now coming from green energy sources [5]. Group 3: Grid Optimization - The completion of over 160 key grid projects and the operation of more than 40 ultra-high voltage transmission projects have enhanced the inter-regional electricity supply capacity [7]. - A new electricity trading mechanism has been established, allowing for efficient electricity distribution across different regions, with cross-regional electricity transactions reaching 855.8 billion kilowatt-hours, a 9% increase year-on-year [7]. Group 4: Energy Storage Solutions - The use of energy storage systems has increased significantly, with new storage facilities providing substantial support during peak demand periods [8]. - The growth of new energy storage installations has surged nearly 30 times over the past five years, enabling better management of electricity supply and demand [8]. Group 5: Demand-Side Management - Initiatives to encourage energy conservation among residents have been implemented, resulting in significant reductions in peak load demand [9]. - The introduction of virtual power plants in residential areas allows electric vehicle owners to charge during off-peak hours and discharge during peak hours, alleviating grid pressure [9].
