AmazingAnhui | First-person view: Electrical workers inspect power transmission line over Yangtze River

(240603) -- WUHU, June 3, 2024 Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM) -- An aerial drone photo taken on April 10, 2024 shows electrical workers inspecting a power transmission line in Jiujiang District of Wuhu City, east China's Anhui Province. Electrical workers staged a "high-wire walk" above the Yangtze River to inspect a power transmission line in Wuhu. Stretching 2,080 kilometers, the 800 kV ultra-high voltage direct current transmission line between southwest China's Sichuan Province and east China's Jiangsu Province spans the Yangtze River here in Anhui. As a critical part of China's west-to-east power transmission project, this line annually transmits over 30 billion kWh of clean power. Electrical workers of Anhui Electric Power Transmission & Transformation Co., Ltd. inspected the line section across the Yangtze River to secure its operation. In nearly three hours, these workers climbed up and moved along the cables for more than 2 kilometers at a maximum height of 278.2 meters. (Photo by Zheng Xianlie/Xinh

    (240710) -- YINCHUAN, July 10, 2024 Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM) -- This aerial drone photo taken on July 10, 2024 shows the construction site of the Zhongning converter station in northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. Construction of the Zhongning converter station is under way as part of an ultra-high voltage (UHV) power transmission line stretching over 1,600 km from northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region to central China's Hunan Province. The project will transmit electricity generated from wind and photovoltaic power stations in China's fourth largest desert, the Tengger Desert. It is expected to be completed in 2025 and has a designed annual power transmission capability of about 36 billion to 40 billion kilowatt-hours. Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM/Wang Peng)

An important flood control facility along the Yangtze River, the Tongma dike winds its way for over 170 kilometers in Anqing. The Susong section of Tongma dike, more than 60 kilometers in length, serves as the "first fortress" against the impact of flooding water entering Anhui along the Yangtze River. Since the water level of the Anhui section of Yangtze River exceeded the warning mark on June 30, nearly a thousand government staff and locals have been mobilized to partol the Susong section of Tongma dike round-the-clock to ensure its integrity.
