Li Chunlin pointed out that the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China attaches great importance to the national power interconnection and emphasizes the planning and construction of a new energy system, and the coordinated promotion of power exchange between provinces and cities. The signing of a strategic framework cooperation agreement between State Grid and Southern Power Grid is a landmark measure to implement the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee. It is of great significance for optimizing the allocation of power resources on a large scale, ensuring energy security, and promoting clean and low-carbon energy transformation. State Grid and Southern Power Grid should take this cooperation as an opportunity to further enhance their political stance, establish a sound work coordination mechanism, form a working force, and promote the preliminary work of relevant projects as soon as possible to ensure the high-quality implementation of national strategies.
