Sichuan and Yunnan power systems crack down on direct power supply mines
Wu said blockchain only learned that the power systems in the two provinces of Sichuan and Yunnan are making efforts to rectify direct power supply mines. Among them, Sichuan issued a document emphasizing the protection of compliant mines and cracking down on direct power supply mines. Some direct power supply mines have already lost electricity. Under the influence of the epidemic, the profit of the national grid was negative in the first quarter, which hit traditional direct power supply mines, which was beneficial to consume the interests of mines in the demonstration zone and the national grid, but it was tantamount to a disaster for small hydropower and direct power supply mines.
Yunnan Power Grid published an article on April 13, stating that according to preliminary screening of the comprehensive electricity consumption rates of 134 hydropower plants and 11 thermal power plants included in provincial balance regulation in 2019, the comprehensive electricity consumption rate connected to the grid in most cities was abnormally high to varying degrees. The document calls for a comprehensive clean-up of the problem of unauthorized power transfer in grid-connected power plants.
Most of the miners in Sichuan learned and told Wu about blockchain. The Sichuan State Grid issued a document on May 28 calling for regulation and control of electricity supply to illegal plants, but avoiding a “one-size-fits-all” regulation and management method. For those that meet the policy requirements and are willing to connect to the public grid, make every effort to provide good services; for power plants and power supply enterprises that refuse to rectify unauthorized direct supply practices, relevant issues will be dealt with in accordance with the law and regulations.
The entire county in Ya'an directly released the remediation case. On June 2, the Ya'an State Grid Tianquan County Power Supply Company, in conjunction with the County Economic Science and Technology Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, and mobile and telecommunications companies, rectified the illegal connection of electricity equipment to the Tianquan County Ganxipo Power Station and Jiaojiping Power Station within the Ya'an Power Grid for Bitcoin “excavation”.

The article said that the power indicators transferred to blockchain companies without permission from the Ganxipo Power Station and the Jiaojiping Power Station were separately transcribed and archived, and the personnel responsible for the operation of the power station and the electricity companies that used the illegal “mining” were further verified, and the power plants and enterprises involved in the illegal use of electricity were informed to immediately carry out rectification.
According to the article, power generation companies have transferred supplies to blockchain companies without permission, in violation of the “Electricity Purchase and Sale Contract” signed with the State Grid Corporation, and also violated relevant regulations such as the “Electricity Law of the People's Republic of China” and “Electricity Supply Business Rules”. The County Bureau of Economics, Science and Technology, the Public Security Bureau and the power supply company adopted the policy explanation of the “Implementation Opinions on Building a Hydropower Consumption Demonstration Zone to Support the Development of the Blockchain Industry” to promote the development of blockchain technology and industry, cultivate and develop the blockchain industry with the advantage of electricity prices, and promote clean energy consumption for hydropower with additional electricity consumption. The State Grid Tianquan County Power Supply Company will continue to work with relevant municipal and county departments to strengthen supervision and inspection of the electricity supply order in the development of the blockchain industry in the supply area, and resolutely crack down on illegal electricity use according to law and regulations.
Ya'an is the city in Sichuan that is most active in promoting hydropower consumption demonstration zones. It issued the “Implementation Opinions on Building a Hydropower Consumption Demonstration Zone to Support the Development of the Blockchain Industry”, which calls for seizing major strategic opportunities for the development of the blockchain industry, promoting the healthy and orderly development of blockchain technology and industry, promoting high-quality consumption of hydropower resources, and cultivating new growth points for economic development.
