As 39,800 people got access to electricity in northwest China's Qinghai province, electricity has officially become available to all inhabitants in China, according to information released Thursday by China's National Energy Administration (CNEA).
The CNEA launched the electric power projects to provide electricity for regions without electricity in accordance with the requirements of the Twelfth Five Year Plan (2011-2015).
By the end of 2012, China had 2,730,000 people left without electricity — mostly ethnic minorities living in remote areas in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Tibet Autonomous Region, Sichuan province and Qinghai province.
CNEA’s Three-Year Action Plan for making electricity available to all Chinese inhabitants (which began in 2013) said that a total of 2,730,000 people, who are the last people without electricity in China, should have access to electricity by the end of 2015.
As of 2014, all inhabitants in the Tibet Autonomous Region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region were provided with electricity; 237,800 people in Sichuan and Qinghai provinces were still left without electricity at that time.
China invested 24.78 billion yuan in grid extension in regions without electricity and renewable energy power projects from 2013 to 2015, according to the CNEA.
