Meanwhile, the problems related to climate change, environmental protection and sustainable development have become increasingly noticeable. Also, requirements from electricity consumers for higher supply reliability, excellent power quality and satisfactory services have emerged. In this scenario, two main characteristics of Chinese power grids are deduced. The first one is that the grids will remain the trend of rapid development for a long period of time. The second one is that Chinese power grid must take the road of constructing strong grids. These strong grids have UHV grids as their backbones and are supported by coordinated development of grids at different voltage levels. Based on the analysis of the necessities and the basic conditions of smart grid development in China, the paper provides an in-depth understanding of the four following aspects that should be correctly dealt with: constructing strong and smart grid with Chinese characteristics, scientifically planning the temporal orders of intellectualizing transmission and distribution systems, designing the integration of information project and smart grids in advance, and ensuring the coordinated development of smart grid, power sources and users. Finally, the paper presents some suggestions on construction of Chinese smart grid.KEY WORDS:information engineering ； smart grid ；sustainable development；temporal orderIntroductionSince entering the 21st century, Chinas demand for electricity has been very high due to the rapid development of its economy. At the same time, the problems related to climate change, environmental protection and sustainable development have been increasingly noticeable. As the basic industry that combines production materials with living essentials, electricity industry is inevitably drawing much attention from society, government and the public.Meanwhile, as the largest user of primary energy resources, electricity industry cannot shirk its responsibility on lowering the emissions of greenhouse gases and attenuating its negative impacts on climate, which is particularly true for China. In 2008, China ranked the second place in the world in terms of the total emissions of greenhouse gases with its 16 cities joining the worlds top 20 most-polluted ones. Besides, the direct losses brought about by acid rains are over 100 billion yuan. So, it is an urgent mission to save energy and abate emissions and turn the society into a resource-saving and environmentally friendly one1. With the development of digital economy and information era, the requirements of consumers for power supply reliability, power quality and services become increasingly high. Therefore, it turns to be a social problem to accelerate the mode transition of power production, transmission, and consumption and that of electricity industry development. In this scenario, China and some European and American countries have made some efforts in solving the related problems according to their own conditions. The achievements made include application of UHV, distributedgeneration,andpower electronics technology, development of electricity market, and rapid development of renewable energy sources. Impressively, from these efforts germinates and grows the concept of smart grid.By comparing the smart grids in China with those in the US and Europe and considering the conditions of energy resources and the interior driving forces of grids in China, this paper presents the main characteristics of Chinas grids, analyzes the four aspects that need much attention while constructing Chinas smart grids, and reveals that only strong and smart grid can meet the requirements for building a resource-saving and environmentally friendly society in China.1 Comparisons of smart grids in China and those in US and EuropeComparisons of smart grids in China and those in US and Europe are made as follows in terms of backgrounds, goals and main characteristics.1.1 Smart grids in US1.1.1 Backgrounds1 ） Major problems of grids include aging electricity infrastructure, transmission congestion, low market efficiency, poor reliability and gap between the secondary systems and digital and information technologies.2）There are numerous electricity utilities, and various management modes. Most balances between power generation and power consumption are realized locally. Long-distance transmission is rarely performed.3）Permissions to construct power lines are hard to get because public concerns over environmental protection are enormous and raising money is difficult on electricity market.4）Though there is national interconnection, some problems exist in management and security due to lack of nationwide backbone networks and uniform dispatch control.1.1.2 Goals1）Digitally upgrading transmission and distribution (T&D) systems, optimizing operation of T&D systems, opening market for alternative energies and offering diverse options for electricity consumers. 2）Increasing reliability, security and efficiency of power transmission and consumption with advanced technologies of information, communication and control.3）Turning future networks into the smart grids of resilience, reliability, interactivity and self-balance.1.1.3 Main characteristics1 ） Participation of consumers begins with distribution systems. Installing advanced metering systems for consumers is in the first phase.2 ） Much importance is attached to demand responses and development of demand-side resources and high efficient resources. Consumers can be provided with real-time information and options.3）Be able to realize integration of intelligent electrical apparatus and user's equipment into grids, and application of advanced energy storage systems and peak-load shaving technologies.4 ） The grids are adaptable to distributed generation and renewable energy generation.1.2 Smart grids in Europe1.2.1 Backgrounds1）Grids in European countries are interconnected, and the interoperation among them is increasingly strong.2）The energy policies address the importance of environmental protection and development of renewable energy sources.3）Due to the saturating electricity demands and limited development space, the final goal of energy development is distributed generation, not the expansion of the scales of grids.4）The user-centered philosophy becomes popular and the freedom of electricity market is enlarged.1.2.2 Goals1）Adaptable to changes and challenges faced by future grids and accommodating various demands of consumers.2）Guaranteeing all users to be accessible to grids and to easily obtain renewable, efficient and clean energy.3）Making power supply reliable and secure in accordance with the requirements of digital society and information era.4）Improving the efficiency of electricity market by innovating technologies, efficiently managing energy resources and introducing orderly competition into market.1.2.3 Main characteristics1）The terminal users play more active roles in power supply. Demand Side Management (DSM) becomes an indirect generation means, which highlights the users being rewarded for their participation.2 ） The new systems will cover the whole European continent and make sure that the terminal users can access to as much resources as possible and realize high efficient power exchanges.3）Problems concerning environmental protection can be solved with the full use of renewable energy.1.3 Smart grids in China1.3.1 Backgrounds1）The grids develop rapidly with large capacity for growth in electricity demand thanks to the rapid increase in social economy. 2） Breakthroughs have been made on UHV transmission technologies, which lay the foundation for improving the grids capability of wide-area optimal allocation of resources.3）Electricity occupies a small part in terminal energy consumption. Efficiency in energy application is low, participation of users is not enough, and marketization of electricity industry should be accelerated.4）Problems concerning grids accommodating capability, receiving end markets, and dispatch and operation have become prominent due to the impressively rapid development of renewable energy.1.3.2 Goals1）Serving the development of social economy, helping build a resource-saving and environmentally friendly society, and making power supply secure, reliable, clean, and efficient.2 ） Serving both power sources and users, contributing to the coordinated and sustainable development of electricity generation, transmission, distribution and consumption. 3） Enabling the optimal operation of power systems and improving the grids capability of optimal allocation of resources to realize efficient application of social resources and maximize the benefits.4）Implementing the “plug-and-play” integration of renewable energy generation and distributed generation with strong network structures and flexible operation modes.1.3.3 Main characteristics1）Based on digital substations and smart grids, the self-healing capability can be obtained via smart management and smart dispatching. 2） The interactivity will be emphasized in information exchanges and data transfer among power sources, T&D systems and users and among the dispatching centers at various levels.3）Importance will be attached to the harmonized development between smart grid planning and planning of the backbone networks of bulk systems, and the mergence of the planning for various electricity sources.4）Smart grids fusion with information construction and its leading function will be highlighted.5）Mutual connection, unificationand harmonization are stressed in managerial sectors such as planning, designing, construction and operation, and in production sectors such as electricity generation, T&D and consumptions as well.6）Emphasis will be laid on life-cycle asset management, the coordinated planning of electricity sources and grids, and the standardization and normalization for the construction of electricity sources and grids as well.2 Necessities and basic conditions of Chinas smart grids2.1 The option of smart grids is determined by Chinas basic conditions and the interior driving forcesDue to the fact that Chinas energy resources are located far from load centers, the energy has to be transferred across long distances, in large capacity and with lower losses. Hopefully, the emergence of UHV transmission will provide opportunities to optimally allocate resources in a wide range and enable electricity delivery from large energy bases. But, the upgrading of voltage level is only the exterior appearance for grid development. Its interior driving forces include the flexibility of control, the high efficiency of management and the interactivity with consumers, which contribute to the formation of smart grids.Firstly, in the process of building smart grids the employment of advanced technologies and equipment will contribute to forming a substantial platform for the stable and secure operation of grids and enhancing the strength of grids primary systems.Secondly, in the process of building smart grids, the optimal operation of the system, the optimization of resources and life-cycle asset management can be materialized via utilization of advanced philosophy, enhancing professional qualities of the staff, integrating the internal resources of the enterprises and excavating the internal potentials of the enterprises.Thirdly, the interactive actions between utilities and consumers and the effective DSM approaches can contribute positively to shifting peak loads to filling valley loads, lowering system reserves and reducing operation costs, lifting the load ability of the grids and improving the utilization of grid investment.2.2 Bases of constructing Chinas smart gridsSome work in the fields of smart grids has been conducted in China. More specifically, the work can be categorized into three groups, namely, power generation, T&D and consumptions. The power generation group includes distributed generation, renewable energy generation, and energy-saving oriented dispatch technology and auto-generation control. The T&D group consists of UHV AC and UHV DC transmission, FACTS, digital substation technology, PMU-based WAMS, DMS, state-oriented maintenance and life-cycle asset management and so on. The power consumptions group contains custom power, auto-metering and auto-transcription and so on. Besides, most electricity companies are making themselves more digital and information-wise, which establishes a foundation for smart grid construction.Objectively, the base of Chinas smart grid is being formed, which can be proved by the following:1）The strong grids with UHV grids as their backbones and the coordinated development of the grids at different levels are still under construction. The wide-area allocating capability of the grids needs further improvement.2）The nation-wide unified electricity market is in its primary stage and the transaction mechanism and pricing policies are far from mature. Therefore, the basic conditions for clean energy sources, and distributed generation to participate market competition havent been made. The efficiency and benefits of electricity market havent been fully revealed.3）Electricity users havent enjoyed the benefits arising from the interaction with the grids as yet. What they can receive is the one-way passive services. The meters can only be read automatically. A lot of work needs to be done to guide electricity users consuming habits and their consuming demands.4）The relevant policies or laws related to smart grids havent been made or issued by the government. The government is supposed to be a leading role in constructing smart grids with great support because the work is a systematic project covering all walks of life and needs an overall arrangement in planning and development. Especially, policies encouraging users to join the effort of saving energy and mitigating greenhouse gases emission should be promulgated.3 Constructing the smart grids with Chinese characteristics3.1 The significance of constructing the smart grids with Chinese characteristicsAs is shown in the former chapter, Chinas smart grids are different with those in the US and Europe in terms of backgrounds, goals and main characteristics. It is the chosen road for China to construct the smart grids with Chinese characteristics that are suitable for the developing level of Chinas electricity industry, technology and economy. The Chinese characteristics are displayed in two aspects : Aspect One: Chinas grids are still rapidly developing. In order to make the country more wealthy, its economy will e
