A total of 220 pilots determined the scope of power supply, of which 85 were in the first batch, 50 in the second batch, 53 in the third batch, 29 in the fourth batch and 3 in the fifth batch.

Six regional power grids and 30 provincial power grids across the country have launched power auxiliary service markets, achieving full coverage of all regional and provincial auxiliary service markets, and the basic establishment of a power auxiliary service market system. In the process of coping with power shortages in 2021, power assistance services have played an active role. The country tapped peak load capacity of about 90 million kilowatts through the auxiliary service market, and added about 80 billion kilowatt-hours of clean energy electricity.
