Foreign media: China plans to increase the capacity of power transmission from west to east to 420 gigawatts by 2030, while increasing the share of renewable energy in total power output to about 30%. This goal was jointly released by the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration.

In addition, China also plans to increase inter-provincial power transmission capacity by about 40 gigawatts by 2030 to optimize the allocation of grid resources. The "West-to-East Power Transmission" project is expected to reach a capacity of 340 gigawatts by the end of 2025, representing a 25% increase from 270 gigawatts at the end of the "13th Five-Year Plan" period.

This move aims to ensure energy security and meet the growing electricity demand in fields such as artificial intelligence and high-tech manufacturing. China also plans to increase the grid's capacity to accommodate distributed renewable energy to 900 gigawatts by 2030 and support more than 40 million charging piles.
