For comparison, Hoover Dam is about 2 GW.

According to https://rethinkresearch.biz/articles/chinas-uhv-transmission..., they will be at 105 GW by 2025 (the article is dated 2022). 50% of the power on these lines will be from renewables by 2025 (right now at 43%).

I can't find any .cn estimates of UHV capacity.
