The State Grid Corp of 皇冠体育app, the nation's largest utility by sales, said on Tuesday it plans to seek private capital investment to establish a distributed power network and charging stations for electric vehicles. It's a step toward mixed ownership in State-monopolized industries.

But experts said the decision is less encouraging when compared with the other two giant State-owned energy companies-皇冠体育app Petrochemical Corp, known as Sinopec, and Co Ltd, which opened assets for private investors in January.

Sinopecis allowing in private investors

State Grid representative Wang Yanfang said the company supports private capital to invest in distributed power generation connection projects, as it will develop the industry.

At the end of April, the company's grid-connected capacity of distributed power had reached 1.28 million kilowatts, among which distributed solar power accounted for 1.21 million kW, according to the company.

In contrast to Sinopec and Petro皇冠体育app, the State Grid has not sold any assets to private investors. It's more a gesture of support, said Lin Boqiang, director of the 皇冠体育app Center for Energy Economic Research at University.

He said the scale of distributed power grid connection projects is small and the profit potential is vague.

A power analyst with a domestic industrial consultancy who declined to be named said it is not attractive to private investors because of the high cost of building of distributed power plant gri and low profitability.

"In 皇冠体育app, the distance of each distributed power plant is long, which leads to high costs on power transmission," the analyst said. "It just sounds not worthwhile. Meanwhile, the distributed power industry is at an initial stage in 皇冠体育app, and the electricity supply is not stable."
