The 2026 China-ASEAN Power Cooperation and Development Forum followed under the 
theme "Pooling Smart Green Power, Connecting ASEAN." Yang Kun, Executive Vice Chairman
of the China Electricity Council (CEC), called for deeper cooperation in green energy,
digital innovation, interconnection and people’s well-being. Guangxi Power Grid 
proposed working with Vietnam and other ASEAN countries to advance grid interconnection,
standards cooperation and a development model of "R&D in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou,
integration in Guangxi, and application in ASEAN." Lao PDR reported 29 China-Laos
power projects, with a combined planned capacity of 13.9 million kilowatts.

Chinese energy companies showcased a broad range of technologies and solutions. 
China General Nuclear Power Corporation (CGN) presented a 1,000 MW photovoltaic 
project in Laos, while the Hualong One (HPR1000) and the Guohe One (CAP1400), two
independently developed Gen III nuclear power technologies, were presented side 
by side. China Southern Power Grid and Guangxi Power Grid showcased new power system
and near-zero-carbon demonstration zone solutions. CHN Energy presented large-scale"
desert-gobi-wasteland" renewable energy bases, hydrogen and ammonia co-firing in
coal-fired power plants, and CCUS solutions. China Huadian showcased smart production
and management platforms for hydropower and new energy. A BeiDou-enabled "air-space-
ground" integrated control platform for hydropower dams also highlighted advances
in digital energy. According to the CEC, China and ASEAN have built 16 cross-border
interconnected transmission lines rated at 110 kV and above. Cross-border electricity
exchange has exceeded 75 billion kWh, more than 90 percent of which is green power.

The automotive sector featured new energy vehicles from SAIC-GM-Wuling, Dongfeng
Liuzhou Motor and Guangxi Automobile Group, as well as power and energy-storage 
batteries from Gotion High-Tech. Chinese companies are also bringing charging and
battery-swapping facilities, after-sales services and local supply chains to meet
Southeast Asia’s needs for electric mobility and logistics.

For ASEAN and the RCEP, the focus is on whether cooperation can deliver reliable
power, clean transportation, jobs and technology transfer. China-ASEAN energy and
automotive supply chains are moving beyond simple trade toward joint system building,
standards development and talent training, making the green transition a shared 
regional endeavor.
