China News Service, October 26. According to the Chinese government website, the State Council issued a notice on the 26th to issue the "Carbon Peaking Action Plan by 2030" (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan").
The "Action Plan" proposes to accelerate the construction of a new power system.
By 2025, the installed capacity of new energy storage will reach more than 30 million kilowatts.
By 2030, the installed capacity of pumped storage power plants will reach about 120 million kilowatts, and the provincial power grid will basically have a peak load response capability of more than 5%.
The Action Plan clearly stated that energy is an important material basis for economic and social development and the most important source of carbon emissions.
We must adhere to safe carbon reduction, vigorously implement renewable energy substitution under the premise of ensuring energy security, and accelerate the construction of a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system.
The first is to promote coal consumption substitution, transformation and upgrading.
Speed up the pace of coal reduction, strictly and rationally control the growth of coal consumption during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and gradually reduce it during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period.
Strictly control new coal-fired power projects, the coal consumption standards of newly-built units have reached the international advanced level, orderly eliminate outdated coal power production capacity, speed up energy-saving upgrades and flexible transformations of active units, actively promote heating reforms, and promote coal-fired power to the basic security and system Regulative power supply is equally important for transformation.
Strictly control the scale of cross-regional renewable energy power supporting coal power, and the proportion of renewable energy power in newly built channels shall not be less than 50% in principle.
Promote the reduction of coal in key coal-using industries.
We will vigorously promote the clean utilization of coal, reasonably delimit areas where scattered burning is prohibited, take multiple measures simultaneously, actively and orderly promote the replacement of scattered coal, and gradually reduce until the scattered burning of coal is prohibited.
The second is to vigorously develop new energy.
Comprehensively promote the large-scale development and high-quality development of wind power and solar power, adhere to the simultaneous development of centralized and distributed, and accelerate the construction of wind power and photovoltaic power generation bases.
Accelerate the innovation and upgrading of the smart photovoltaic industry and special applications, innovate the "photovoltaic +" model, and promote the diversified layout of photovoltaic power generation.
Adhere to both land and sea, promote the coordinated and rapid development of wind power, improve the offshore wind power industry chain, and encourage the construction of offshore wind power bases.
Actively develop solar thermal power generation and promote the establishment of a wind-solar and thermal comprehensive renewable energy power generation base with complementary adjustments of solar thermal power generation, photovoltaic power generation, and wind power.
Develop biomass power generation, biomass clean heating and bio-natural gas in accordance with local conditions.
Explore and deepen the development and utilization of new marine energy such as geothermal energy, wave energy, tidal energy, and temperature difference energy.
Further improve the guarantee mechanism for the consumption of renewable energy power.
By 2030, the total installed capacity of wind power and solar power will reach over 1.2 billion kilowatts.
The third is to develop hydropower in accordance with local conditions.
Actively promote the construction of hydropower bases, promote the start of construction of hydropower projects in the upper reaches of the Jinsha River, the upper reaches of the Lancang River, the middle reaches of the Yalong River, and the upper reaches of the Yellow River that have been included in the plan and meet the requirements of ecological protection.
Promote the synergy and complementarity of hydropower, wind power, and solar power generation in the Southwest.
Coordinate hydropower development and ecological protection, and explore the establishment of a compensation mechanism for hydropower resource development and ecological protection.
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" and "15th Five-Year Plan" period, the newly added hydropower installed capacity was about 40 million kilowatts, and a renewable energy system based on hydropower was basically established in the southwest.
The fourth is to actively develop nuclear power in a safe and orderly manner.
Reasonably determine the layout and development timing of nuclear power plants, develop nuclear power in an orderly manner under the premise of ensuring safety, and maintain a steady pace of construction.
Actively promote advanced reactor-type demonstration projects such as high-temperature gas-cooled reactors, fast reactors, modular small-scale reactors, and offshore floating reactors, and carry out demonstrations on the comprehensive utilization of nuclear energy.
Increase nuclear power standardization and autonomy, speed up research on key technologies and equipment, and cultivate high-end nuclear power equipment manufacturing industry clusters.
Implement the most stringent safety standards and strictest supervision, and continue to improve nuclear safety supervision capabilities.
Fifth, rational control of oil and gas consumption.
Keep oil consumption in a reasonable range, gradually adjust the scale of gasoline consumption, vigorously promote the replacement of traditional fuels such as advanced bio-liquid fuels and sustainable aviation fuels, and improve the energy efficiency of terminal fuel products.
Accelerate the large-scale development of unconventional oil and gas resources such as shale gas, coalbed methane, and tight oil (gas).
Guide natural gas consumption in an orderly manner, optimize the utilization structure, give priority to the protection of residential gas, vigorously promote the integrated development of natural gas and multiple energy sources, build natural gas peak-shaving power stations based on local conditions, and rationally guide the use of industrial gas and chemical raw materials.
Support vehicles and ships to use liquefied natural gas as fuel.
Sixth, speed up the construction of a new power system.
Build a new type of power system with a gradual increase in the proportion of new energy sources, and promote the large-scale optimization of clean power resources.
Vigorously improve the comprehensive regulation capability of the power system, accelerate the construction of flexible regulation power, guide self-supplied power plants, traditional high-energy industrial loads, industrial and commercial interruptible loads, electric vehicle charging networks, virtual power plants, etc. to participate in system regulation, build a strong smart grid, and improve the grid Security level.
Actively develop "new energy + energy storage", source-network-load-storage integration and multi-energy complementarity, and support the rational allocation of energy storage systems for distributed new energy sources.
Formulate a new round of medium- and long-term development plans for pumped storage power plants, and improve the policy mechanism for promoting the development of pumped storage power plants.
Speed up the demonstration and application of new energy storage.
Deepen the reform of the power system and accelerate the construction of a unified national power market system.
By 2025, the installed capacity of new energy storage will reach more than 30 million kilowatts.
By 2030, the installed capacity of pumped storage power plants will reach about 120 million kilowatts, and the provincial power grid will basically have a peak load response capability of more than 5%.
