Aba clean energy reaches Chengdu in 1 millisecond.

During the Long March, the Red Army climbed snow-capped mountains and crossed grasslands on the western Sichuan plateau; today, the builders of the AbaChengdu East 1,000 kV ultra-high-voltage project have set foot on the same land. This high-altitude energy artery will transmit clean hydropower, wind and solar power from western Sichuan to the Chengdu metropolitan area. CCTV Finance reporters at the construction site of this UHV substationthe highest in the worldsaw that all six main transformers have now been installed in place. The project is expected to be commissioned before the end of this year, at which point clean energy from Aba will be delivered to the Chengdu area in about one millisecond. At present, Aba has more than 70 million kilowatts of developable wind and solar renewable energy resources. Once this line is completed, Aba's transmission capacity will double, and the clean electricity delivered will exceed 15 billion kWh, enabling more of Aba's green power resources to be converted into economic advantages.
