According to the State Grid Gansu Electric Power Company, as of December 10 this year, Gansu’s annual generation from new energy sources reached 40.8 billion kWh, surpassing the 40-billion-kWh mark for the first time. This amount accounts for about 26% of the province’s total annual electricity generation, making new energy sources a key component of Gansu’s power supply system. State Grid Gansu Electric Power Company reports that the power generated from new energy sources amounts to 40 billion kWh, which is equivalent to saving 16 million tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 40 million tons, resulting in significant ecological and social benefits. This year, with high coal prices and insufficient generating capacity from conventional power sources, it has played an important role in maintaining electricity supply and demand balance in Central China and ensuring the stable operation of the power system.
