On the eve of the Spring Festival in February 2021, INFORM received a letter of thanks from China Southern Power Grid. The letter was to thank INFORM to put a high value on the demonstration project of UHV multi-terminal DC power transmission from Wudongde Power Station to Guangdong and Guangxi Province(hereinafter referred to as “The Kunliulong DC Project”), actively mobilize resources to support the construction of the project, resolutely implement customer requirements, carefully deploy, well organize, orderly promoted, complete the task of production and supply with high quality, providing a solid material guarantee for the smooth operation of the project
Project Introduction
INFORM and China Southern Power Grid began to cooperate in 2012 and have cooperated on 25 projects so far. The Kunliulong DC project of our cooperation this time is divided into three sub-projects: Kunbei Converter Station Project, Liubei Converter Station Project, and Longmen Converter Station Project.
“The Kunliulong DC Project is a world-class power transmission project successfully completed and put into operation in China since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. It is a national key project for power transmission from west to east with a clear national energy development plan during the “13th Five-Year Plan” period. This is the country’s first UHV multi-terminal DC demonstration project. It is currently the world’s multi-terminal hybrid DC project with the highest voltage level and the largest transmission capacity. It is also an important measure of China Southern Power Grid to implement the Party Central Committee’s “six stability” and “six guarantees” requirements and serve the overall economic and social development.
The Kunliulong DC project has a total investment of 24.26 billion yuan. It is planned to be put into operation and power transmission in 2020. It will be completed and put into operation in 2021. By then, it will increase the channel power transmission capacity of 8 million kilowatts, and the annual power transmission will exceed 32 billion kilowatt-hours.
The construction of the Kunliulong DC project is an important measure to implement the strategy of power transmission from west to east and promote the consumption of clean energy. It is also an important measure to realize the optimal allocation of resources and serve the practical needs of the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. This is a major move to study and implement the socialist ideology with Chinese characteristics in the new era of Xi Jinping and the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and build a world-leading enterprise with global competitiveness. It is of milestone significance for promoting green development, innovative development, and coordinated regional development. “
The project is located in the deep mountains, several hours drive away from convenient transportation. The installation conditions are difficult, the roads are rugged, and the transportation and installation process are difficult. Our company attaches great importance to this project and mobilizes various resources within the company to give priority to the construction of the project. Especially during the prevention and control period of the COVID-19. wth a high degree of political awareness, sense of responsibility, awareness of the overall situation and team awareness, we resolutely implement customer requirements, well organize, orderly promoted, complete the task of production and supply with high quality, providing a solid material guarantee for the smooth operation of the project. The Kunliulong DC project was completed and put into operation half a year ahead of schedule on December 27, 2020. The project has set 19 world firsts: the world’s largest capacity UHV multi-terminal DC transmission project, the first UHV multi-terminal hybrid DC project, the first A UHV flexible DC converter station project, the first flexible DC transmission project with the ability of self-clearing DC faults of overhead lines, etc.
This letter of thanks from China Southern Power Grid, bring INFORM not only moving, but also encouragement and spur. INFORM will continue to live up to expectations, actively fulfill its social responsibilities, adhere to technology and application innovation, and help enterprises and customers achieve smarter production and life with continuously improved automation, informatization, and intelligent technology, products and services!
