-- China has built a massive power network often termed "power highways" to transmit electricity from its resources-rich west to the more developed, power-thirsty east.

-- As the country is striving to meet its carbon commitment to peak carbon emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060, the power highways have seen increasing transmissions of electricity generated by green energy.

-- The trend of green power transmission is set to continue as China keeps up its capacity of clean and renewable power generation.

YINCHUAN/XINING, Oct. 13 (Xinhua) -- On the western fringes of Maowusu, a major desert in northern China, rows of power towers stand on an area of about 26.7 hectares.

Every day, nearly 100 million kWh of electricity is transmitted from the facilities to the eastern coastal city of Qingdao about 1,300 km away.

The infrastructure is part of China's massive power network often termed "power highways," built to transmit electricity from its resources-rich west to the more developed, power-thirsty east.

The power highways use ultra-high-voltage (UHV) transmission, the world's most advanced power transmission technology. China is the first country to fully grasp the UHV technology and put it into commercial use.
