jaue2019-045: Summary of Research on China's Smart Grid Development

Abstract

With the further development of China's economy, the power load is growing rapidly, the grid power supply pressure is increasing, and the traditional power grid can no longer meet the growing demand for electricity. Therefore, establishing a unified and strong smart grid is the direction of China's power grid development. This paper describes the current status of smart grid development in China, covering the current state policy, investment and smart grid demonstration projects. It analyzes the problems existing in China's smart grid development in policy, investment, related technology research, infrastructure construction, and concept promotion. It is pointed out that in order to improve power production efficiency under the constraints of resources and environment, improve power structure, and meet the maximum economic development demand with minimum social cost, the development of China's smart grid is imperative.
