Introduction to CEEC and CGGC
• China Energy Engineering Group CO., LTD（CEEC) is a Chinese
enterprise owned by the central government. It is one of the largest
energy engineering groups not only in China but also in the world.
• CEEC provides full project services in general contracting, project
management, planning, surveying, design, construction, engineering
maintenance, investment and operation.
• At the end of 2011, CEEC’s total assets was over 20 billion US dollars.

5. China Gezhouba (Group) Corporation International (CGGC)
• As a subsidiary of CEEC, China Gezhouba (Group) Corporation is world
famous for its irreplaceable engineering & construction contribution for
Three Gorges Project, which represented the highest level of engineering &
construction in the world.
• At present, CGGC has established branches in 39 countries and regions,
and is constructing over 90 international projects around the world in more
than 10 fields involving hydro power, thermal power, power transmission,
equipment supply, highway, railway, bridge, building, municipal works,
water supply, irrigation, port, etc.
• We also invest in the other areas such as power, mining, construction
materials and international trade.

6. CGGC power transmission business:
• World’s first ±800KV level extra high
voltage DC transmission line from
Yunnan to Guangzhou
• Asia’s first ±800KV level extra high
voltage HVDC converter station—
Huidong HVDC converter station
• High altitude installation of 750 KV level
extra high voltage transmission
equipments for Laxiwa hydropower
station in an extremely cold area

7. Power Transmission V.S. Smart Grids
• Power transmission: the power transportation
between power source and electricity load.
• Smart Grids: intelligent electricity grids. Based
on integrated, high-speed and bidirectional
communication network, it applies advanced
equipment and technology in control method,
sensor & measurement technology and
advanced support system technology to
establish a reliable, secure, economic, efficient,
environment-friendly Grid.
P 7 www.gzbgj.com

8. • With all kinds of advanced technology in power Grid in a wide range of
applications, in recent years, the intelligent network has become an
inevitable trend in the development of power system;
• The intelligent network development has become the worldwide common
consensus.
• Why smart Grid can attract so much attention?

Smart Grids development in P.R.C.

9. • It plays a very important role in developing efficient energy and
resource allocation, fully utilizing clean energy, saving energy and
reducing emission.
• The construction of reliable Smart Grid in China will provide a great
platform for optimized distribution of energy resource.
• It will be helpful for significant reinforcement of power carrying
capacity which will help form a “super DC, super AC” extra high
voltage transmission network, and achieve cross-region, long-
distance and highly efficient transportation of hydropower, nuclear
power, coal and renewable energy with large capacity at low loss.
• It will significantly enhance China’s power Grid’s optimized
allocation ability in a large scale.

Smart Grids development in P.R.C.

10. • China power industry strengthens the Grids-base construction, pay
more attention to the international power technology development
direction and innovation and integration application of various new
technology research.
• In “2009 International Conference for Extra High Voltage
Transmission Technology”, China announced “Sturdy Smart Grid”
development strategy.
• In August, 2009, state Grid corporation launched a series of works
such as smart Grid planning compiling, standard system research
and development, research & testing center establishment, special
major research and pilot projects.
• In 2011, the smart Grid pilot project has already started
comprehensively around China.

Three Proposals: Technology, enterprises and finance cooperation
1、Technology exchange
• Compared with Europe and the United States, China’s research
in the area of Smart Grids started late.
• Faced with huge potential Chinese market, I suggest countries
whose Smart Grids’ technology is developing faster export more
advanced equipment and technology into China so as to obtain a
win-win situation in the mutual technology exchanges.

12. Three Proposals: Technology, enterprises and finance cooperation
P 12 www.gzbgj.com
2、Enterprise cooperation
• Companies around the world have accumulated and formed their
own comparative advantages in their development process.
• I recommend that all countries increase cooperation with Chinese
enterprises.
• The cooperation methods can include new investment and M&A in
order to maximize the use of social resources, to save labor and
create more social value.

13. Three Proposals: Technology, enterprises and finance cooperation
3、Financial support
• Some factors such as European debt crisis, weak world economic
recovery lead to serious shortage of funds in the world.
• China’s foreign exchange reserve is as high as US$ 3 trillion. In
2011, China’s foreign direct investment reached a high record of 68
billion US dollars, the fifth in the world.
• I suggest that in a mutually beneficial and win-win principle,
countries in the world should strengthen financial cooperation to
solve the insufficient funds problem in order to facilitate the power
transmission and Smart Grids infrastructure development and as a
whole, to promote the sustainable development of energy
infrastructure.
