China Southern Grid Company Limited (CSG) is the second largest electricity grid operator in the People's Republic of China . Since the organizational reform of the Chinese energy industry in 2000, the State Grid Corporation of China and CSG have jointly been responsible for China's power supply.
Based on the requirements of the State Council for the Energy Industry, CSG was founded on December 29, 2002. CSG is responsible for investing, building and operating the networks in the five southern Chinese provinces of Guangdong , Guangxi , Yunnan , Guizhou and Hainan . The company also participates in supra-regional power transmission and transformation and in supraregional network combination projects. This also includes independent international collaborations.
CSG's headquarters in Guangzhou has 13 departments. In addition, CSG has four other headquarters, two branches each specializing in super-high voltage transmission and finance, and five subsidiaries: Guangdong Power Grid Company, Guangxi Power Grid Company, Yunnan Power Grid Company, Guizhou Power Grid Company and Hainan Power Grid Company. By the end of June 2005, CSG's assets were RMB 253.8 billion yuan (approx. 25.38 billion euros), making it one of the “ Fortune Global 500 ” (2006: 266th).
