Hey there! 🌟
Have you ever wondered how electricity travels long distances to power our homes and schools? Well, something really cool just happened in east China’s Anhui Province! 🚀
On Wednesday, workers finished building a part of a super high-voltage power line that crosses the Huaihe River. But this isn’t just any ordinary power line. It’s a massive 500 kV (that’s kilovolts!) transmission line. Imagine it like a giant highway for electricity! ⚡️
Here are some fun facts:
- The project connects Xiangjian to Ludao, two places in Anhui.
- They built two enormous towers on each side of the river, each as tall as 193 meters! That’s taller than most skyscrapers! 🏙
- The distance between these two towers is 1,578 meters. That’s like lining up almost 15 football fields in a row! 🏈
Why is this important?
By building this huge power line, more people can get the electricity they need for lights, heating, and all the gadgets we love. Plus, it helps share clean energy across different places, making our planet happier! 🌍💚
Isn’t engineering amazing? Maybe one day, you’ll design something even cooler! 😉
