Over 500 billion cubic meters of natural gas have been delivered to China over the more than 14 years of operation of the Central Asia-China gas pipeline, Xinhua news agency reported, citing the West Pipeline Company of the Chinese corporation PipeChina. This volume of energy is equivalent to the use of 666 million tons of coal, which has reduced carbon dioxide emissions by 731 million tons.

The pipeline, 1,833 km long and with a design capacity of 60 billion cubic meters of gas per year, was commissioned in December 2009. The maximum daily gas flow exceeds 160 million cubic meters.

 The pipeline, China's first transnational pipeline, originates from the border of Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, passes through Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, and connects with China's West-East Gas Pipeline in Horgos, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

The pipeline has provided gas to more than 500 million people in 27 provincial-level regions and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
