The 800kV UHVDC transformer will be designed and installed for a converter station that will form part of the Nuozhadu-Guangdong transmission system.
The company said that the technology enables more efficient use of renewable energy sources, reduces dependency on fossil fuels and helps cut carbon dioxide emissions.
The transformer is an important component of ultrahigh-voltage power links that deliver large amounts of electricity over very long distances.
