1. Li Chuangjun, Director of the New and Renewable Energy Department of the National Energy Administration

Carbon peaking and carbon neutrality is a major strategic decision made by the Party Central Committee. It is necessary to accelerate the implementation of renewable energy substitution actions and promote renewable energy to accelerate into a new stage of high-quality development. On the one hand, we must vigorously promote the development of renewable energy bases. In areas with good wind and solar resource endowments and superior construction conditions, we will actively promote the centralized development of wind power and photovoltaic power generation, and accelerate the construction of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic base projects focusing on desert and Gobi desert areas. On the basis of steadily organizing and implementing the first batch of projects, we will conscientiously do a good job in organizing the second batch of projects. At the same time, we will actively promote the development of wind power and photovoltaic bases in other areas of the "Three Norths", the development of integrated water, wind and photovoltaic bases in the southwest region, and the development of offshore wind power clusters.

For large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases, research shows that the proportion of technology that can be developed accounts for more than 60% of the country's total. The construction of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases in desert and Gobi desert areas can give full play to the advantages of rich wind and solar energy resources and good construction conditions in these areas. It is the focus of efforts. It is an important measure to build a solid national energy security barrier and promote green and low-carbon energy transformation.

In the first quarter of 2022, the first batch of large-scale wind power photovoltaic base projects of about 100 million kilowatts has started construction of about 84 million kilowatts. The follow-up plan will focus on the Kubuqi, Ulan Bhe, Tengger, and Badain Jaran Deserts, supplemented by other deserts and Gobi areas, comprehensively consider coal mining subsidence areas, and accelerate the promotion of large-scale wind power with a total scale of approximately 450 million kilowatts. The photovoltaic base planning and layout plan has been implemented. In conjunction with the overall layout of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases focusing on the Gobi desert, and in accordance with the principle of “opening up as much as possible and opening up as much as possible”, we will conscientiously organize and implement the second batch of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic base projects.

In addition, the construction of renewable energy bases in the "14th Five-Year Plan" renewable energy development plan has been fully launched, and efforts have been made to promote the development of new energy bases in seven continents including Xinjiang, the upper reaches of the Yellow River, the Hexi Corridor, the bends of the Yellow River, northern Hebei, Songliao, and the lower reaches of the Yellow River. For energy base construction, organize relevant provinces (regions) to prepare base planning plans to further optimize project layout and construction timing; promote the development and construction of two major water, wind and solar integrated bases in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi and southeastern Tibet, and study and prepare integrated water, wind and solar base plans; promote Large-scale offshore wind power development in the eastern coastal areas and demonstration development in deep seas will focus on the construction of five large offshore wind power base clusters in Shandong Peninsula, Yangtze River Delta, southern Fujian, eastern Guangdong, and Beibu Gulf.

On the other hand, we must continue to promote the development of distributed new energy. Actively promote the local and nearby development and utilization of new energy, accelerate the construction of distributed wind power and distributed photovoltaic in load centers and surrounding areas, promote the in-depth integration of renewable energy development with ecological civilization construction, new urbanization, new infrastructure, new technologies, etc., and continuously expand New areas and new scenarios for the development of renewable energy. Promote the implementation of the "Thousands of Villages and Villages Control the Wind Action" and the "Thousands of Households Shining Light Action", orderly advance the county's rooftop distributed photovoltaic development pilot work, further strengthen information monitoring and disclosure, and form a good up-down linkage mechanism.

Talking about the green and low-carbon transformation of energy in rural areas, Li Chuangjun pointed out that rural renewable energy is becoming an important carrier of rural revitalization. Rural renewable energy, represented by wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy, etc., can not only ensure the supply of clean energy in rural areas, promote green development, improve production and living conditions, and help build ecological, livable and beautiful villages, but also become a way to strengthen the village collective economy. , an effective way to broaden farmers’ income channels, build ecologically livable and beautiful villages, and promote rural revitalization.

During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, we will anchor the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, and vigorously promote the development of rural renewable energy. Focus on using open spaces in courtyards, fields and other places to promote the distributed development of wind power and photovoltaics, and implement the "Thousands of Villages and Villages Control the Wind Action" and "Thousands of Households Mighty Light Action".

2. He Yang, Director of the Electric Power Department of the National Energy Administration

In order to further enhance the power supply guarantee capability, the Electric Power Department will further strengthen the power supply guarantee capability under the new situation in 2022. Accelerate the construction of various local supportive power sources, and actively promote the construction of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases in deserts, Gobis, deserts and other places with the support of surrounding clean, efficient, advanced and energy-saving coal power and stable, safe and reliable UHV power transmission and transformation lines as carriers. , jointly support the power demand of the load center. Strengthen the operation and maintenance of coal power units and ensure the supply of thermal coal to ensure stable and full power generation during peak load periods. Encourage the construction of energy storage facilities according to local and grid conditions to cope with peak load demand. We will further strengthen and refine the demand-side response to electricity, promote and accelerate the formation of a long-term mechanism to ensure the healthy development of the power system, and make every effort to ensure the demand for electricity for the healthy and stable development of the economy and society.

In addition, the role of optimal allocation of large power grid resources should be given full play. Accelerate the preliminary work of inter-provincial and regional power transmission channels, and coordinate and promote the work related to inter-provincial and inter-regional power transmission channels in conjunction with the planning and development of large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases in desert, Gobi, and desert areas. Implement the scheduling and coordination mechanism for inter-provincial and inter-regional power transmission projects, and promptly coordinate and resolve problems and difficulties encountered in the preliminary work of power transmission channels. During peak hours of electricity consumption, we will further optimize power dispatch and increase temporary support across provinces and regions.

In order to further leverage the large-scale resource allocation advantages of my country's large power grids and strengthen the overall coordination of cross-provincial and cross-regional power operations, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of stock channel utilization and the proportion of renewable energy transmission. Strengthen the construction of supporting power grid supporting projects at the sending and receiving ends of key stock transmission channels, promote the commissioning of supporting power supplies, optimize the supporting power supply structure, and strive to improve the utilization efficiency of stock transmission channels and the proportion of new energy power. The third is to coordinate the layout of new inter-provincial and inter-regional power transmission channels. Scientifically study and judge the power consumption trend of load centers, combined with the development and consumption needs of large-scale wind and photovoltaic bases, scientifically plan and layout inter-provincial and inter-regional power transmission channels according to the complementary development model of wind, solar, water, fire and storage, and optimize and improve the prevention and control of air pollution in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and other areas The scale of power reception outside key areas. Promote the coordinated development of power grids in accordance with the principle of "three synchronizations" (synchronous planning, simultaneous construction, and simultaneous commissioning).

Under the guidance of the "double carbon" goal, it is necessary to rely on large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases in deserts, Gobis, deserts and other deserts to prioritize capacity expansion and upgrading to promote the optimized combination of coal and new energy. Gradually and orderly phase out outdated units, continue to promote high-quality development of the coal power industry, and promote adequate supply of electricity. In addition, we must continue to promote the optimization and adjustment of power supply structure and performance, support the development and utilization of renewable energy, and serve green and clean energy with an increasing proportion. Actively optimize the grid connection characteristics of new energy and increase the system support and adjustment capabilities of new energy. Accelerate the construction of strong smart grids, continuously optimize and improve the backbone grid, strengthen the support capabilities of the distribution network, promote the construction of strong local power grids, and comprehensively improve the safe and reliable operation of the power grid.

3. Li Fulong, Director of the Planning Department of the National Energy Administration

Since the "14th Five-Year Plan", the National Energy Administration has successively formulated and issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for Modern Energy System", the "14th Five-Year Plan for Electric Power Development", the "14th Five-Year Plan for Renewable Energy Development Plan", and the "14th Five-Year Plan for Renewable Energy Development". "The 14th Five-Year Plan for Science and Technology Innovation in the Energy Sector" and other 6 sub-sector plans, as well as the "Implementation Plan for Promoting Energy Green and Low-Carbon Transformation and Doing a Good Job in Carbon Peaking" and "Opinions on Improving the Institutional, Mechanism and Policy Measures for Energy Green and Low-carbon Transformation" 》 and other 2 comprehensive documents.

As far as the "14th Five-Year Plan" energy plan is concerned, the eight words "clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient" are the core connotation of the modern energy system and are also the overall requirements for how to modernize the energy system. The "14th Five-Year Plan" is a critical period and window period for carbon peak. Green and low-carbon development of energy is the key. The focus is to do a good job of "addition" to increase clean energy supply capacity and "subtraction" to reduce carbon emissions in the energy industry chain, and promote Form a green and low-carbon energy consumption model and continue to increase the proportion of non-fossil energy consumption.

During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, energy consumption will still grow rigidly. On the one hand, the peak-valley gap in energy consumption continues to increase. On the other hand, the green and low-carbon transformation of the energy system is accelerating under the dual-carbon goals, making it more difficult to ensure energy supply. We will adhere to the principle of "based on the domestic market, make up for shortcomings, provide diversified guarantees, and strengthen reserves", strengthen the construction of independent energy supply capabilities, and ensure that energy supply and demand are generally stable and orderly.

4. Tong Guangyi, Director of the Electric Power Safety Supervision Department of the National Energy Administration

To build a new power system, we must focus on coordinating the relationship between three aspects: First, we must coordinate development and security. It is necessary to ensure the safe supply of electricity, the safe operation of the power grid, and the safe consumption of new energy. The second is to coordinate speed and quality. It is necessary to take into account the high-quality development of different energy categories, as well as the high-quality development of sources, grids, loads and storage. The third is to coordinate production and consumption. It is necessary to grasp changes in the balance of supply and demand to lay a solid foundation for energy transformation; to grasp changes in the source-charge relationship to improve resource utilization efficiency; to grasp changes in energy flow to improve the accuracy of power forecasting.

To build a new power system, we must adhere to the two principles of goal orientation and problem orientation. Promoting the realization of carbon peak and carbon neutrality is the primary goal of the construction of the new power system. Meeting the energy needs of the people for a better life is the fundamental driving force for the construction of the new power system. ; Ensuring the security of large power grids is an intrinsic requirement for building a new power system.

On the basis of adhering to the above two important principles, the development path of building a new power system should follow the following steps: First, with the goal of ensuring supply security, resolve the short-term contradiction between power supply and demand by fully mobilizing load-side resources to participate in regulation. Secondly, with the goal of ensuring the safe consumption of new energy, we solve the problem of insufficient mid- and long-term power peaking capabilities by building a hierarchical energy storage system. Finally, with the goal of promoting high-quality development in the energy field, we will greatly improve the safe operation level of new power systems by creating a panoramic energy perception system.
