Sichuan's largest-ever 220kV substation, the Shulong 220kV transmission and transformation project, has started construction; Qingyang District Aviation Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park is in final stages, expected full delivery in April; Yuhu Cold Chain (Chengdu) Trading Center has topped out, expected to be completed and operational in the second half of this year... After the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon, Chengdu continues to expand investment in key industries and accelerate the construction of major industrialization projects in fields such as integrated circuits, new displays, and new energy vehicles. In recent days, Chengdu's major project construction has been accelerating, with multiple projects to be completed and operational within this year.

　　220kV Substation Starts Construction; Enhancing Transmission Capacity of Northern Chengdu Grid
　　The 2024 Chengdu Power Grid "Rongyao Project · Gongga Peak" Three-Year Breakthrough Construction Promotion and Resumption Safety Education Conference was held on the 22nd, at which the Shulong 220kV transmission and transformation project, a key project, started construction. With a main body investment of 890 million yuan, the substation is the largest 220kV substation ever invested in Sichuan Province and a core node in the future power supply network of Xindu District. It is expected to be officially put into operation in 2025, greatly solving the problem of limited transmission capacity in the local grid of northern Chengdu.
　　According to Yao Jiandong, General Manager and Deputy Party Secretary of Chengdu Power Supply Company, the project can increase the overall power supply capacity of Chengdu grid by about 500,000 kilowatts, add 480,000 kVA of power supply capacity, effectively alleviate the heavy load problems of Majia and Tuanjie 220kV substations, and achieve overall optimization of the 110kV grid structure in Xindu area, significantly improving regional power supply reliability and fully meeting the high-quality electricity demand of industries such as rail transit and transportation.
　　According to Hu Lin, Deputy Director of the Construction Department of State Grid Chengdu Power Supply Company, in 2024, Chengdu grid has 56 projects under construction, with 13.33 million kVA of transformer capacity and 1,816.6 kilometers of lines under construction, setting a record high in both annual construction scale and intensity. Within the year, 29 projects including the 500kV Konggang and its supporting facilities and the 220kV Shulong will start construction. Before the summer peak, 9 key projects including the 500kV Shiling and 220kV Houzimen will be put into operation. A total of 22 projects will be put into operation throughout the year, with 319.4 kilometers of lines commissioned. "Chengdu grid's power supply capacity will exceed 20 million kilowatts within the year, further meeting the energy demand for Chengdu's economic and social development," said Hu Lin.
　　It is reported that the "Rongyao Project · Gongga Peak" three-year breakthrough is the largest and most extensive construction task for Chengdu grid in recent years, with a total main body investment of 16 billion yuan and over 110 projects to be put into operation. After the three-year construction projects are fully completed, Chengdu grid's power supply capacity will double by the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan", and will help achieve the expected goal of over 50% non-fossil energy consumption in Chengdu.

　　Boosting Aviation Manufacturing; Two Projects to Be Delivered in the First Half of This Year
　　"Buildings in the park are undergoing cleaning, patching, and other final work," said Li Yong, Construction Manager of the Qingyang District Aviation Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park project of China MCC5 Group. Final work and acceptance are proceeding simultaneously; after acceptance, full delivery is expected in April.
　　The Qingyang District Aviation Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park project is a key project in Sichuan Province, with a total construction area of about 215,200 square meters. Currently, all 13 buildings in the park have been completed. As the R&D and production plant of the National High-end Aviation Equipment Technology Innovation Center, it will realize "technology upstairs, industry upstairs" in the future and is an important infrastructure for Qingyang District to build a *** aviation advanced manufacturing cluster.
　　According to Li Yong, to ensure the project is completed and delivered on schedule, during the foundation construction phase, steel processing equipment was added, and a two-shift system was implemented to process materials overnight. In just five months, the mechanical and electrical installation of 31,500 square meters of basements in two plots was completed.
　　At the construction site of the Airport Manufacturing Industrial Headquarters Base in Chengdu Eastern New Area, after the Spring Festival holiday, the site is bustling—the roar of machines is incessant, vehicles are constantly entering and exiting to transport materials, and with the cooperation of tower cranes, workers collaborate efficiently. The main structure of the entire project has already taken shape...
　　"At present, the first phase of the project has completed the main structure construction and is undergoing secondary structure and mechanical and electrical installation. According to the current construction progress, the project will be put into use in June this year," said He Xunjun, head of the Project Management Department of Airport New City Investment Co., Ltd. The Airport Manufacturing Industrial Headquarters Base project covers a total area of about 386 mu, with a total construction area of about 460,000 square meters and a total investment of about 3.2 billion yuan. It includes customized standard factories, R&D offices, comprehensive service centers, talent apartments, supporting commercial facilities, etc., to create a green, low-carbon, open, shared, and smart future industrial community and provide customized services for airport manufacturing enterprises. "In the future, this place will become an important carrier for the mutual integration, promotion, and enhancement of the civil aviation industry and regional economy," said He Xunjun.

　　Building a Western Cold Chain Industry Highland; Cold Chain Trading Center to Operate in the Second Half of the Year
　　Adjacent to Chengdu International Railway Port, the Yuhu Cold Chain (Chengdu) Trading Center is a provincial and municipal key project and an important part of the construction of Chengdu National Backbone Cold Chain Logistics Base. It will build a comprehensive modern service industry trading park integrating import and export trade, cold chain warehousing, e-commerce, logistics distribution, and other functions. On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the project fully resumed work early. It has now topped out and is undergoing decoration and equipment installation, expected to be completed and put into use in the second half of this year.
　　It is reported that the Yuhu Cold Chain (Chengdu) Trading Center has been selected into the Sichuan Provincial Key Project List for three consecutive years and is an important component of the "Chengdu National Backbone Cold Chain Logistics Base". With the promotion of the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing and its Cold Chain Logistics Professional Committee, it has joined the "National Backbone Cold Chain Logistics Base Joint Conference Mechanism".
　　After completion and operation, the project will fully leverage the advantages of a "chain leader" enterprise, empower Chengdu's related industries to build circles and strengthen chains, jointly build a cold chain ecosystem, and form a dual-level global cold chain supply system in Sichuan and even the western region of China, complementing existing facilities and supply chains. Through hardware and software integration innovation, it will achieve the integration of primary, secondary, and tertiary industries and create a new ecosystem for food circulation and dual circulation in Sichuan. The project will play an important role in ensuring regional supply of daily necessities, supporting the city's export-oriented development, promoting the linkage development of cold chain logistics and related industries, and advancing intercity connectivity cooperation of base cities, supporting the domestic and international dual circulation development pattern.
