[Qinghai opened a new mode of one-stop grid-connected services for new energy]On April 8, the State Grid Qinghai Power Company announced that their independently developed new energy and electrochemical energy storage full process grid-connected management system has been officially put into operation. This system marks the opening of a new era of one-stop grid-connected services for new energy, and will provide solid technical support for Qinghai to build a national clean energy industry highland. It is reported that the development of the system began in November 2023, and the functional test of the system was completed by the end of February 2024, and it was successfully launched in March. The system is born under the background of abundant energy resources and rapid development of new energy in Qinghai. By the end of March, the total installed power capacity of Qinghai Province reached 55.68 million kilowatts, of which the installed capacity of new energy accounted for 38.79 million kilowatts, accounting for 69.67%. At the same time, the new energy generation accounted for 51.29% of the total power generation, indicating the important position of new energy in Qinghai's energy structure. Zhang Zhen, deputy director of the hydropower and new Energy Department of the Qinghai Power Regulation Center of the State Grid, said that the online operation of the new system will greatly reduce the management and compliance pressure brought by large-scale network connection of new energy and energy storage projects. All newly accepted new energy grid-connected projects will be handled online to achieve the service goals of "not running once" and "One Netcom Office". The project owner only needs to log in to the system and input relevant information to start the grid connection work, which greatly reduces the link of offline submission of paper materials and circulation approval. This not only improves the efficiency of examination and approval, but also effectively avoids problems such as incomplete submission of data, unclear filling and loss of paper data. At present, through this system, Qinghai Power Grid has accepted a total capacity of 700 thousand kilowatts of new energy grid-connected projects. It is expected that within this year, nearly 15 million kilowatts of new energy will be added to the grid. The successful application of this system will further promote the development of Qinghai's new energy industry and help Qinghai build a national clean energy industry highland. Editor/Xu Shengpeng

At the press conference on March 2, 2026, State Grid Gansu Electric Power Company announced the latest progress of the 15th Five Year Plan as a pioneer of the power grid. It is reported that Gansu ranks first in the northwest in terms of approved construction scale in the field of pumped storage, and four projects have entered the main construction phase. Of particular note is that the installed capacity of new energy storage in Gansu Province has exceeded 7.9 million kilowatts in the first year of the 15th Five Year Plan.Editor/Yang Meiling
