More are the “Fifth Power Quality Summit” and “Green Industrial Revolution – Energy Saving & Electric Power Automation Technology, and Automation Technology on Smart Grid” with inspiring presentations by specialists from China Electric Power Research Institute, Shanghai Municipal Electric Power Company, East China Electric Power Design Institute, Shanghai East China Architectural Design & Research Institute, Shanghai Hydroelectric Engineering Society and much more.

As a must-attend event for the electric power industries, EP Shanghai / Electrical Shanghai 2011 has received invaluable support from different trade delegations organized by East China Electric Power Design Institute, Shanghai Electric Wire & Cable Industry Association, Haian Electric Corporation, Nantong Electric Corporation, Jiaxing Electric Corporation, Nanchang Electric Power Research Institute, China State Construction Engineering Company Shanghai Architecture Institute, etc. 10 overseas delegations from Asean Federation of Electrical Engineering Contractors (AFEEC), Thai Electrical and Mechanical Contractors Association (TEMCA), Russia, India, Iran and Korea are ready to tap this unique trading and information exchange platform in China as well.

According to the research and development analysis by China Electricity Council, electric power industry will undergo a long term development during the 12th Five-year Plan period. In the coming 10 years the power production scale will reach 9.3 GW, with more than 9000 KW annual production and thus requires power generation equipment supply ability with 1.2 GW; with the production scale of 890 thousands kilometer long cable in 110 kV or above over the country and substation capacity of 48 GkV. All these precipitate China a huge market with worldwide attention. During this period, the Chinese government has announced the country’s target for energy efficiency and carbon-emission control that the power industry would be more attentive to green energy technology and its applications, towards a new stage for nationwide interconnection, ultra-high voltage, smart grid, west-to-east power transmission, high efficient clean coal power generation, renewable energy, development and applications of energy conservation technology.

EP Shanghai / Electrical Shanghai 2011 is jointly organized by China Electricity Council and Adsale Exhibition Services Ltd, co-organized by Shanghai Municipal Electric Power Industry Association, East China Grid Company Limited, SGCC and Shanghai Municipal Electric Power Company, SGCC, with extensive support from major power group corporations and power grid corporations of China.
