Advancing Principles and Strategies of Power Grid Interconnection in the Belt and Road

Abstract

Promoting the “Belt and Road” grid interconnection and cross-border transmission channel construction is of great significance in optimizing the global energy governance structure, realizing complementary advantages and mutually beneficial cooperation with the countries along the route, assisting regional economic integration, and building a human destiny community. Based on an analysis of the status, future development trend and challenges of power grid interconnection in the B&R area, the basic principles and overall strategy for promoting transnational power grid interconnection in the B&R is proposed.
