The China-Laos 500 kilovolt power transmission project has officially launched.
The ambitious project spans over 183 kilometers, connecting China's Yunnan Province to Oudomxay in Laos.
The initiative is part of China's 14th Five-Year Plan and is set for completion by 2026.
The project will enhance grid interconnection and power support between the two nations.
Once operational, it will facilitate 1.5 million kilowatts of bi-directional power exchange and transmit 3 billion kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually.
