Smart grid development to focus on power transmission
INTERFAX-CHINA 2009-12-07 13:05:58

State Grid of China Corp.'s (SGC efforts to develop a smart grid will focus on power transmission, unlike smart grid development plans in United States and Europe, which have focused on power distribution, power industry experts said at an industry forum on Dec. 3.

Made difficult by the fact that the highest growth areas for energy demand China have been on the East coast, and the sources of energy were found to the west and north, it has forced China's planners to overcome a number of logistical hurdles.

A hurdle that was front and canter throughout the first day at the 2009 Smart Grid Forum (hosted by China Decision Makers Consultancy), a forum that brought together leading Smart Grid experts to discuss and debate the future of Smart Grid in China. With roughly 180 in attendance, standing room only, the event early on took a very interesting tone as members of China's State Grid and Energy Bureau laid out the conditions that exist in China, and how they have been closing communicating with counterparts in the United States...
