[OC] China has built UHV lines spanning 60,000 km, circling the Earth 1.5 times to feed East China's EV industry with clean energy from West China.
The network nearly doubled in five years, growing from 39,000 km in 2020 to 62,000 km in 2025. These "electricity highways" funnel wind, solar, and hydro power from the Gobi Desert and western highlands to the East. submitted by /u/Aggravating-Coast335 [link] [comments]
