Beijing Power Grid Infrastructure Project Comprehensively Advancing

Guangming Daily, Beijing, March 21 — Reporter Zhang Yi reports that on March 20, the State Grid Beijing Electric Power Company announced that during the first quarter of this year, Beijing’s power grid construction projects have accelerated significantly, with 83 infrastructure projects progressing across the board. This effort provides strong electrical support for building an energy powerhouse and helps ensure high-quality development at the start of the capital’s 14th Five-Year Plan.

By the Yanqi Lake, machines are roaring. Construction is in full swing on the Beijing Huairou Science City 500 kV transmission and transformation project. Scheduled for completion by the end of this year, this project will establish Beijing’s first indoor, steel-structured 500 kV substation. Focusing on Huairou Science City, a core area for national strategic scientific and technological innovation, State Grid Beijing Electric Power is accelerating the high-quality development of supporting grid projects. Among these, the Chengezhuang 110 kV transmission project, as Beijing’s first fully autonomous and controllable new-generation substation, will demonstrate advanced technologies such as one-touch control and intelligent patrols upon commissioning, providing a practical platform for the development of new power systems.

Additionally, the capacity expansion of the Fangshan 500 kV substation has fully commenced construction, with plans to complete the upgrade within the year, significantly enhancing the power supply capacity in southwestern Beijing. The Houjie 220 kV transmission project in Chaoyang District is scheduled for completion and operation by 2027, providing reliable power support for areas such as the Fourth Embassy District and Jinzhan International Cooperation Service Zone.

By 2026, State Grid Beijing Electric Power will coordinate the advancement of 111 transmission and transformation projects, including the Fengtai 500 kV and Zhizao 220 kV projects. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, the company will accelerate the development of the Jijing ultra-high-voltage direct current project, plan and build six external power supply channels such as the Xiheying-Fangshan 500 kV line, and implement five 500 kV, 74 220 kV, and 231 110 kV transmission projects.
