]]> Comment on State Grid vs Beijing: a familiar game of Chicken by Mark Englehart Evans http://www.markenglehartevans.com/2011/05/state-grid-vs-beijing-a-familiar-game-of-chicken/comment-page-1/#comment-700 Mark Englehart Evans Sun, 29 May 2011 23:12:00 +0000 http://www.markenglehartevans.com/?p=1423#comment-700 Thanks for the comment!  You ar right, SGCC and SEPCO are different 'State grids'. I should have clarified that there are two different entities and I think I confused myself as well. From the producer side, Huaneng has it the worst -- they're publicly traded (in HK) and an SOE.

SGCC was formed when the central government split the State Electric Power Corporation (SEPCO) into State Grid and the generating companies in 2006. In this case, State Grid is the messenger, not the bad guy: they are basically telling the government "look, we work with these power generators to manage distribution, and they're telling us they may not have any power to offer." This is a high-stakes showdown. The government could easily decide to take over the power generators if this gets serious. What I think we're all hoping happens is what happened with fuel prices - a gradual adjustment to track market fuel prices, and subsidies to the poorest consumers.
