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

At the event site, China Huaneng signed contracts with 13 central enterprises including CNOOC, China National Building Materials, and China State Shipbuilding. A Securities Times reporter learned at the scene that with this signing, the Huaneng New Energy Smart Operation and Maintenance Platform will mainly carry out smart operation and maintenance service cooperation through various channels such as resource sharing, business collaboration, online services, and management improvement.

Weng Jieming pointed out that this marks the transformation of the professional integration of new energy in 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 advancement to sharing and win-win, and the transformation of new energy development from scale to 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.

Regarding the next step, Weng Jieming emphasized that promoting the development of the new energy industry of state-owned enterprises must become the "highest priority." Relevant central enterprises must scientifically plan the development goals, key tasks, path measures and work rhythm of new energy business this year and 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 must comprehensively consider the area where the project is located, investment income and asset quality, carry out new energy investment operations in an orderly manner, strengthen cooperation in new energy digital transformation, professional operations, coordinated development, etc., and effectively avoid "one rush", Excessive competition.

"Promoting professional service cooperation in new energy smart operation and maintenance is to promote win-win cooperation between relevant central enterprises by strengthening the collaborative sharing of resources and smart services, and exploring new paths and new models for professional operation." Weng Jieming said that in recent years, About half of central enterprises have entered the new energy field. In the future, new energy business will gradually concentrate on new energy main business enterprises and advantageous enterprises. Projects with high professional operation level, strong intensive management capabilities and good operating benefits 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, wider-field, and deeper professional operations and cooperation through shared services, entrustment, reorganization and integration, etc.

Public information shows that as of 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 the need to accelerate the research and development and application promotion of cutting-edge technologies such as new energy; focus on strengthening weak links in the industrial chain and forge new industrial competitive advantages in the process of implementing the carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals. Relevant enterprises to promote the development of the new energy industry of central enterprises must strengthen the industrial chain, strengthen research on key core technologies, and focus on technological innovation and research on key areas that restrict the consumption of new energy, such as energy storage, advanced transmission technology, and multi-energy complementation of large energy bases. It is necessary to focus on the layout of the new energy high-end equipment industry, 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.
