The State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC) plans to set up six branches in northern, northeastern, northwestern, eastern, central and southern regions to further promote the ongoing reform in China's power industry.
The six offices will be located in Beijing, the national capital, and five regional centers, Shenyang, Xi'an, Shanghai, Wuhan and Guangzhou.
These branches will be authorized by the SERC to supervise power production and marketing activities and carry out relevant administrative jobs.
They will be under direct control of the SERC.
