On January 6, the centralized signing ceremony for the new energy smart operation and maintenance service cooperation project of central enterprises was held in Beijing. Member of the SASAC Party Committee and Deputy Director Weng Jieming attended the event and delivered a speech. Weng Jieming said that promoting the development of the new energy industry of central enterprises should become the "highlight", form a "game of chess", explore new models, and strengthen the industrial chain. It is reported that in 2023, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission will organize the benchmarking assessment of the new energy industry of central enterprises to help enterprises identify shortcomings and weaknesses, and further improve the level of operation management and efficiency.

At the event site, China Huaneng signed contracts with 13 central enterprises including CNOOC, CNBM, and China Shipbuilding. A reporter from the Securities Times learned at the scene that under the contract, Huaneng Renewables' smart operation and maintenance platform will mainly carry out smart operation and maintenance service cooperation through resource sharing, business collaboration, online services, and management improvement.

Weng Jieming pointed out that this marks the transformation of the new energy professional integration of central enterprises from individual coordination to overall promotion, the transformation of new energy management from decentralized to lean, the transformation of new energy operations from individual advances to shared and win-win results, and the transformation of new energy development from scale The transformation from expansion to specialization and intensification is of great significance for optimizing resource allocation on a larger scale, improving corporate efficiency and core competitiveness, and promoting high-quality development of the new energy industry.

For the next step, Weng Jieming emphasized that promoting the development of the new energy industry of central enterprises should become the "highlight". Relevant state-owned enterprises should scientifically plan the development target direction, key tasks, path measures and work rhythm of new energy business this year and for a period of time in the future, promote the realization of high-quality development, and effectively play the leading role of the industry.

At the same time, it is more important to promote the development of the new energy industry of central enterprises to form a "game of chess". Relevant central enterprises should comprehensively consider the area where the project is located, investment income and asset quality, carry out new energy investment and operation in an orderly manner, strengthen cooperation in new energy digital and intelligent transformation, professional operation, coordinated development, etc., and effectively avoid "crowding", excessive competition.

"Promoting new energy smart operation and maintenance professional service cooperation is to promote the win-win cooperation of relevant central enterprises by strengthening the collaborative sharing of resources and smart services, and to explore new paths and new models of professional operations." Weng Jieming said that in recent years, About half of the central enterprises entered the field of new energy. In the future, the new energy business will gradually concentrate on new energy main business enterprises and advantageous enterprises. Projects with high professional operation level, strong intensive management ability and good operating efficiency can be operated independently. For projects that deviate from the main business, have high operating costs, and lack management capabilities, they should carry out larger-scale, broader, and deeper professional operations and cooperation through shared services, entrusted management, reorganization, and integration.

According to public information, by the end of 2022, my country's new energy installed capacity has reached 760 million kilowatts, ranking first in the world, and the proportion of power generation has steadily increased.

Weng Jieming said that the Central Economic Work Conference emphasized that it is necessary to accelerate the research and development and application of cutting-edge technologies such as new energy; to strengthen the weak links in the industrial chain, and to forge new industrial competitive advantages in the process of implementing the goal of carbon neutrality. Relevant enterprises to promote the development of the new energy industry of central enterprises must strengthen the industrial chain, strengthen key core technology research, and focus on technological innovation and research in key areas that restrict the consumption of new energy, such as energy storage, advanced transmission technology, and multi-energy complementarity of large energy bases. It is necessary to focus on the deployment of new energy high-end equipment industries, vigorously develop high-power offshore wind power, high-efficiency photovoltaic power generation and other clean energy equipment and new energy vehicles and other application terminal systems, and promote the new energy industry to become a new engine for my country's economic growth.
