The history and prospect of grid interconnection

inCSG
Bureau of southern China grid (Guangdong and Guangxi) was established in
December, 1984.
Affiliated company of southern China grid (4 provinces) was established in
July,1990.
500kV single circuit AC transmission line (800MVA) was constructed in 1993.
Until then, 4 southern provinces achieved integrated operation.
The project was developed to 500kV double circuit (1200MVA) in 1998.
500kV Tianguang DC transmission line (1800MVA) was constructed in 1996.

Challenges
D 500kV bulk power grid of Guizhou, Yunnan and Guangxi had not
formed, and grid structure was weak;
D 500kV transmission lines were connected to the weak 220kV network in
Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi, which formed electromagnetic loops.
Stability control equipments must be used to ensure stable operation;
D In 1999, Guizhou grid and Yunnan grid isolated several times from the
main grid. The transmission capacity was limited by the angle and
frequency stability.
Benefits
----~
With the grid interconnection of Yunnan and Guizhou, synchronous grid

scale was extended and frequency stability was improved;
D The benefits of power trading was increased;
D The grids of different provinces behaved as backup for each other, which
decreased emergency reserve and improved equipment utilization
efficiency.

In 2000, the government determined that 1OGW power should be

transmitted to Guangdong and 7 "west-east power transmission" projects
started construction simultaneously .
In 2001, 5 years Yunnan/Guizhou to Guangdong power transmission

agreements were signed.
<I In 2002, the 3rd 500kV AC transmission line for west-east power
transmission was constructed;
+ In 2002, CSG was founded officially.

+ In 2003, the 4th and 5th 500kV AC transmission lines for west-east }l)OWer
transmission were--constmcted,,

Due to the chain structure of west-east powe transmission, the main problem of
this period was dynamic stability problem;
The AC and DC parallel operation further worsen the low damping situation and
low frequency oscillation;
After multiple DC projects were put into operation, commutation failure and
sudden power decrease happened frequently in the first few years.
Benefits
D
CSG realized flexible dispatching by taking advantage of time difference, area

difference and load characteristic difference. With only 3.9% installed
capacity growth, the power demand increased by 11 .7%.
The west-east power transmission capacity increased by 3.2 times and westeast transmitted electricity increased 38% annually.
During summer peak load period in 2005, 1/3 of the electricity consumption
in Guangdong was from west;
For Guangxi, Guizhou and Yunnan grid, the Guangdong grid can provide
backup and improve the fault resistance capability.

inCSG
In 2005, 5 years Yunnan!Guizhou to Guangdong power

transmission agreements were signed;
In 2007, Guiguang II DC transmission line was constructed;
In 2008, another 500kV double circuits AC transmission project

from Guizhou to Guangdong was constructed;
In 2010, the 1st 800 kV UHV DC transmission line in the

world was put into operation;
The west-east transmission capacity exceeded 23GW.

CJ 800 UIN DC transmission capacity is 5000MVA, accounting for 114 of
the west-east transmission capacity. When DC is blocked, the dynamic

stability and voltage decreased obviously.
CJ In remote areas of Guizhou, Guangxi and Yunnan, 500kV grid network
was weak. As installed capacity of small hydro power increased, grid

stability and transmission capacity was limited by dynamic stability;
CJ As multiple DC transmission lines fed into Pearl River Delta, the
interaction between AC and DC became intensive. AC fault may lead to

commutation failure and even block of multiple DC projects, which is a
great threat to the grid stability.

inCSG
Benefits
)
CJ In 2010, the west-east transmitted electricity reached 11 OTWh and the
maximum power was 23 GW, which were doubled compare to that of

2005.
CJ During 2006-2010, the total electricity from west to east was 500TWh,
which promoted rapid and constant economic growth.

CJ By large scale grid interconnection, the natural disaster resistant
capability of CSG was improved . When blizzard hit Guizhou, backup

power supply was provided through 500kV transmission lines from other
places.

inCSG
In 2010, 5 years Yunnan/Guizhou to Guangdong power
transmission agreements were signed;
In 2014, 500kV double circuits DC transmission line

from Xiluodu to Guangdong was put into operation;
In 2015, 800kV DC transmission line from Nuozhadu to

Guandong was put into operation;
The west-east power transmission capacity increases by

18GW;

Grid interconnection development in CSG proves:
>>>-
West-east power transmission is helpful for optimal resources

allocation, ensuring power supply for developed areas and promoting
economic development in areas with rich resources;
The development of synchronous grid with paralleled AC and DC
provides improves grid stability;
CSG has mastered three key technologies, such as grid security and
stability control technology, grid economic operation technology and
equipment integrated application technology, which have been applied in
real case.
Current status for grid interconnection technology

Technology 1: UHV, EHV transmission technology
Due to the low loss and large capacity
power transmission capability, UHV
transmission technology has been used in
main grid construction and planning in
CSG.
It can fulfill requirements of 2000km power
transmission from northwest Yunnan and

southeast Tib
ig in future.
8 UHV and EHV DC transmission lines are

operated by CSG:
);;>-
Two 800kV UHV DC transmission lines
(Yunan~Guangdong, Nuozhadu~Guangdong)
Distance > 1400km

Capacity: bipolar 5000MW
);;>-
Six 500kV EHV DC transmission lines
Distance > 1400km

()
Capacity: bipol<" 3200MW
Flexible DC transmission technology

);;>-
)
);;>-
In 2013, the 1st multi-terminals flexible DC transmission project(( 160kV,200MVA, three

terminals)in the world was constructed by CSG. CSG has mastered lots of key
technologies concerning high voltage, large capacity and multi-terminals flexible DC
transmission equipments as well as system integration.
The Luxi back-to-back DC project(350kV, lOOOMVA) under construction is the one with
the maximum capacity compared with its counterpart in the world. After asynchronous
grid interconnection is achieved, grid stability problems caused by power transfer between
AC and DC lines can be solved while grid stability control strategy can be
simplified, which can eliminate risk of large scale blackout.

The situations of power grid interconnection in GMS countries:

};>The loads are mainly allocated in Thailand and Vietnam while Myanmar and Laos has sufficient hydro
power to export.
};>South GMS countries like Thailand and Cambodia have a higher price than other cuntries. The countries
which are rich in hydro power have a cheaper price.
};>GMS countries could reallocate the electric power resources. The transmission distance is about 1000-2000
km, which is similar with west-east transsmission projects in CSG.
GMS countries is constructing UHV power grid. There is urge demand of grid interconnection and large
scale electricity exchange, which is similar to CSG's initial developing stage.
The development experience of CSG could be the reference for GMS countries to
construct the interconnected power grid.

Annual electricity consumption
ofCSG
~
reached
958.8TWh, the highest load reached
160GW, which is abou@imes that f GMS total.

According to the planning and the projec s
at already been carried out, the initial capacity of
power gird interconnection in GMS is about 3GW-5GW, which is only about 2%-3% ofCSG.

The 500kV transmission lines of CSG is about 39,506km, and the 500kV substation capacity
reached 203,060 MVA. All the GMS countries are still at the beginning the construction of 500kV
power grid expect Thailand.
From the experience of development of CSG, voltage and angle stability will be a problem in the
first few years of 500kV power grid interconnection. Now, CSG is strong enough to support for the
instability in GMS.
3 When GMS countries a re considering to stre ngthe n the powe r grid

interconnect ion, priority ca n be given to CSG.

Conclusion
ased on the main power supply, the power grid interconnection in GMS wil
establish a regional electricity trading platform:
~
Establish large capacity, long-distance and stable transmission networks.

UHV and ERV technologies can be applied.
The most important thing of power grid interconnection in multilateral

countries is to realize the electricity exchange, complementary surplus and
insufficiency in large capacity. Hybrid operation of 500kV AC/DC with is a
good way to realize the multilateral trading.
Flexible HVAC can be used in electricity exchange between neighboring

countries in small capacity.
