China has established the world's largest internet-based electricity service system, greatly reducing the time required for accessing electricity, according to the country's energy authorities.
At present, application for accessing power in the country can be handled online, with the number of registered users of such digital platforms having surpassed 400 million, and more than 97 percent of electricity-related services completed through online channels, Song Hongkun, deputy head of the National Energy Administration, told a press briefing on Thursday.
Meanwhile, most of China's provinces and regions have the government service platforms connected with the electricity application system of power providers, and the duration for such application has been shortened by more than 40 percent in recent years.
China has also cut the construction time of electricity infrastructure and promoted electricity-related services without halting power supply to better serve enterprises.
"For demands on electricity quality from emerging and future sectors such as electronic information, high-end manufacturing, and quantum computing, more work will be done to monitor and analyze anomaly and improve the power grid operation, so as to better meet the production and operation demands of enterprises," said Pang Xiaogang, general manager of State Grid.
China has also integrated remote offshore islands into the major power grid through multi-energy complementary microgrid networking system, ensuring that island residents receive equal electricity services. "We've integrated 29 islands in the near sea into the major power grid in Hainan, and completed the microgrid construction on six remote offshore islands in Guangxi, all of which are operating efficiently," said Qian Chaoyang, general manager of China Southern Power Grid.
