BEIJING, June 27 (Xinhua) — A set of global energy grid interconnection standards covering wind, photovoltaic and pumped storage power plants was released in Beijing on Friday, laying a solid foundation for the global development of clean energy and the integration of transnational power grids.
At a launch event in the Chinese capital, the Global Energy Interconnection Development and Cooperation Organization (GEIDCO) unveiled seven standards in areas such as new-generation power system planning, clean energy resource assessment and cross-border power grid interconnectivity.
In addition, the standards cover technical requirements for connecting photovoltaic and wind power plants to the power grid, testing of alternating current electrical equipment during commissioning, and technical conditions for automatic control systems for pumped storage units.
Speaking at the event, GEIDCO Chairman Xin Bao’an said the standards integrate achievements and innovative practices in energy and electricity technologies from China and other countries. He called them a milestone in the global development of clean energy and the integration of transnational power grids.
By filling the gap in relevant international standards, these innovations will play an important role in accelerating the construction of global energy system interconnection and promoting international cooperation in energy transformation, said Xin Bao’an, also head of the China Federation of Electric Power Enterprises.
