State Grid unit eases access steps for clients

State Grid Beijing Electric Power Company has come out with a new power installation service policy that can help small businesses reduce costs and improve efficiency.

"The number of steps to get access to power has been reduced from six to three, and now users can finish all the procedures through a mobile phone without going to the service center in person for three to five times as before," said Wei Yanping, deputy director of the marketing department of the company.

Since the launch of the service policy for low-voltage power users on Feb 8, the company has installed low-voltage facilities for 888 small businesses and other users, who on average got access to power within three working days from informing the company of their electricity needs, according to Wei.
