The 14th Annual Meeting of the New Champions, also known as the "Summer Davos," was recently held at the Meijiang Convention and Exhibition Center in Tianjin.

All of the 1 million kWh of electricity used during the event came from wind power generated in Xiliin Gol League of North China's Inner Mongolia over 600 kilometers away.

To put this into perspective, that is equivalent to the daily electricity consumption of a small or medium-sized city with a population of 50,000 to 100,000.

As early as 2014, the State Grid planned and constructed the Xilingol to Shandong Ultra High Voltage Alternating Current project, which passes through Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Tianjin, and Shandong.

Inner Mongolia has fully supported the construction of the Inner Mongolia UHV power grid. Up to now, two UHV power transmission channels, namely those running from Xiliin Gol to Shandong province and from Xiliin Gol to Taizhou in Jiangsu province, have been completed and put into operation.

With the construction of a national energy base, Inner Mongolia has actively explored new models for power grids. Therefore, multiple low-cost green electricity supply models have been established to help companies reduce costs, improve efficiency, and promote energy conservation, carbon reduction, and green transformation.

By the end of 2022, Inner Mongolia's wind power generation exceeded 100 billion kWh for the first time.

By 2023, 11 out of the 12 leagues and cities in Inner Mongolia will have the largest cumulative wind power installed capacity in the country.

With such a significant level of wind power, Inner Mongolia now has enough capacity to accommodate the demand for green electricity.
