Village in Zhejiang gets power upgrade
China DailyIn the mountainous areas of Chun'an county, Zhejiang province, the village of Hujiaping boasts a unique natural climate and beautiful scenery, with an average elevation of 800 meters. The well-designed hiking trails, sea of cloud vistas and fields of flowers, alongside "Happy Farms", have attracted many tourists to the area, providing villagers with handsome incomes, said Ren Maopan from State Grid Chun'an County Power Supply Co. Amid joint moves to aid Hujiaping's high-quality development, State Grid Chun'an County Power Supply Co has tailored a power grid construction and transformation plan for the village, building 26 kilometers of new 35-kilovolt lines and 7.5 km of newly constructed or renovated 10-kV lines. "The reliability of power supplies to the village has been increased to 99.99 percent, effectively solving the low voltage constraints on its rural development," said Ren. Back in 2023, Pan applied for electricity use at a mobile power station, and employees from State Grid Chun'an County Power Supply Co installed a power meter for him, which supplied electricity at low voltage, with the process from application to power connection completed in just two days.
