## Business overview

China XD Group is involved in the research, development, design, production, sale, testing, distribution of control equipment for high-voltage energy transmission and distribution systems.[3]

According to the company, China XD Group operates approximately 60 subsidiaries, including 10 medium-sized production enterprises and three research institutions. The company employs about 18,000 people, including around 3,000 engineers and technicians.[4]

China XD Group's research institutions conduct experiments on high-voltage, high-current, and large-capacity AC/DC electricity. The group is a member of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and the International Conference on Large High Voltage Electric Systems (CIGRE), serving as the ICE's designated administrative body in China. China XD Group claims to have developed approximately 1300 products. Additionally, the company holds 260 patents, including two related to computer software copyright.[5]

## Products

China XD Group specializes in electrical equipment and systems. Key product categories include:

* Transformers: Up to 750 kV for power and converter applications.
* High-voltage reactors: Smoothing and shunt reactors.
* Switchgear: Gas-insulated (GIS) systems up to 800 kV.
* Lightning arresters and capacitor voltage transformers.

These products serve high-voltage power networks, supporting national and international infrastructure projects.

## Projects

XD Group supplies power transmission and distribution equipment in China and components for national engineering projects, including the first infrastructure in China for 330kV and 550kV DC, 750kV AC, ±100kV DC, ±500 kV DC, and ±800 kV DC transmission. Additionally, they have contributed to China's first DC power supply network from the northwest to the north, participated in the Three Gorges Project, and supported the west-to-east electricity transmission project. According to the Belt and Road Energy Cooperation website, components like transformers of 750kV, reactors, lightning arresters, capacitor voltage transformers and isolating switches of 800kV have successfully operated in 750kV model projects in northwest China. China's first 800 kV double cut-off pot-style breakers have been operated at Yinchuan East Transformer Substation.[6]

### Participation in the Belt and Road Initiative

Since the Belt and Road Initiative was proposed in 2013, China XD Group has exported its products and technologies to around 100 countries and regions, supplying equipment for international infrastructure projects.[7] Major projects include:

#### Southeast Asia

* Indonesia: Joint venture to produce 500 kV power transformers.
* Philippines: Construction of the MVIP HVDC transmission project.
* Laos: Completion of the Hongsa power transmission and transformation turn-key project.
* Malaysia: Transmission line project undertakings.

#### South Asia

* Pakistan: Construction of the first ±660kV HVDC transmission line.[8][9]

#### Middle East

* Saudi Arabia: Equipment supply for the NEOM water electrolysis hydrogen production project.

#### Central Asia

* Uzbekistan: Signed EPC contract for the 500kV ring transmission line project.

### Wind Power Projects

In 2013, XD planned to assist Uzbekistan in constructing wind farms as its first major wind power project. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed with Uzbekenergo, the country's governing body for energy, to conduct a feasibility study on the establishment of wind farms.[10]
