A new round of global technological revolution and industrial transformation is flourishing, and technological innovations such as new energy, large power grids, advanced nuclear power, new energy storage, and hydrogen energy are accelerating at an unprecedented pace. Major countries around the world have taken technological innovation as a breakthrough point and actively formulated various incentive policies to seize the high ground of innovation.
At present, China's energy and power sector has formed a complete industrial chain, supply chain, and value chain with strong international competitiveness. In some technological fields such as ultra-high voltage and new energy, it has achieved international leadership. However, there is still a gap with the requirements of new power system construction, and there are still shortcomings in key core technology and equipment. For example, there is a gap between key components and the international advanced level; Key power technologies such as new energy generation grid connection and active support technology, as well as flexible DC transmission, urgently need breakthroughs; The basic materials, high-end processes, and precision equipment of wind power equipment manufacturing are highly dependent on foreign countries. The cost of large-scale new energy storage is relatively high, and the foundation of digitalization and intelligence in the power system is not yet solid enough.
The power industry must adhere to the core position of innovation in high-quality development, accelerate the cultivation and growth of strategic emerging industries represented by wind and photovoltaic new energy, build new technologies and models represented by energy storage, hydrogen energy, and comprehensive energy, vigorously promote the integration and empowerment of digitalization, artificial intelligence, and energy and electricity, continuously shape new driving forces and advantages for development, and promote high-level technological self-reliance and self-reliance in the power industry.
Promote the high-quality development of new energy. We will adhere to the combination of centralized and distributed approaches, and actively promote the construction of the "Shagehuang" large-scale wind and photovoltaic base project. The central and eastern regions should actively promote the development of distributed and offshore wind power, and promote the local and nearby consumption of new energy. Preliminary estimates indicate that the newly installed capacity of new energy generation will once again exceed 200 million kilowatts this year.
Persist in making good use of existing resources, optimizing incremental growth, and promoting the consumption of new energy. Promote the construction of supportive and adjustable power sources for large-scale wind and solar bases. Fully leverage the technological and economic advantages of various new types of energy storage, and reasonably determine the scale of energy storage configuration. Explore and promote the coordinated development of multiple types of new energy storage technologies, including energy storage, heat storage, cold storage, and hydrogen storage. Steadily carry out hydrogen energy pilot demonstrations, with a focus on developing renewable energy for hydrogen production.
Strengthen industry energy conservation, carbon reduction, and efficiency improvement. Continue to implement the "three reforms and linkage" of coal-fired power, and deeply explore the technology of co firing hydrogen and ammonia in thermal power. Strengthen energy management and actively promote the large-scale demonstration application of carbon capture, utilization, and storage. Promote demonstration projects such as new energy microgrids according to local conditions. Accelerate the construction of a charging infrastructure network system, vigorously promote the integration of V2G and vehicle network interaction, and continue to carry out clean energy substitution in key areas.
Optimize the regulation capacity of the power system. Promote the construction of an intelligent scheduling system throughout the entire process of source network load storage, achieving precise load control and refined user electricity management. Through market means, we will vigorously promote energy conservation in electricity, strengthen load classification management, and guide large-scale aggregated loads, interruptible loads, and virtual power plants to actively participate in system regulation.
