The cross-Yangtze River wiring operation for the Baihetan-Zhejiang 800 kv ultra-high voltage direct current (UHVDC) transmission line project, a major part of China's west-to-east power transmission program, was completed on Tuesday.
The Baihetan-Zhjiang transmission line is expected to transfer more than 30 billion KWH of clean electricity each year, reducing coal consumption by about 10.57 million tons and carbon dioxide emissions by about 19.19 million tons.
