Current problems in the development of the new energy industry.
The new energy industry, as a strategic emerging industry, has always been one of the key strategic emerging industries supported by the state. After decades of development, China has achieved a historic transformation in energy production and consumption, entering a "green cycle" dominated by fossil fuels. However, in recent years, although China's renewable energy utilization technology has made great progress and development, there are still problems such as unbalanced large-scale construction and development, and unreasonable energy consumption structure.
According to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Energy Development released by the World Bank and the 2030 New Energy Development Goals proposed in the China Framework Convention on Energy and Climate Change, the proportion of new energy in the world is expected to increase to around 20% by 2030 and reach 50% by 2050. By 2030, fossil fuels should replace electricity as one of the main sources of global energy consumption. In order to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, China should establish an energy system with fossil fuels as the mainstay and renewable energy as the mainstay, and renewable energy and alternative energy developing together. Focusing on promoting the energy production and consumption revolution, guided by the energy revolution, we aim to build a clean, low-carbon, safe, and efficient modern energy system. Promote the formation of a new development pattern with domestic circulation as the mainstay and domestic and international circulations mutually reinforcing each other.
Main issues that exist
Firstly, there is a mismatch between the installed capacity of hydropower and the scale of renewable energy generation;
Secondly, the total installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation is not large;
Thirdly, wind power and photovoltaic power generation are limited by resource conditions and uneven regional distribution, resulting in uneven total installed capacity, leading to large-scale development of solar power generation and serious phenomena of wind and solar power abandonment; However, there is still a gap between the efficiency of hydropower generation and the international advanced level;
The potential of wind energy resources needs to be further explored and utilized;
The demand for clean electricity still has great potential.
At present, wind power dominates in China's new energy projects. In the field of new energy generation, the progress of photovoltaic power generation technology is faster than that of key technologies such as wind power power density and conversion efficiency, which continue to break through; Distributed wind power will further enhance the scale and intelligence of photovoltaic power generation. After several years of growth, the biomass power generation industry is still relatively small in scale and has further increased market space, which is still far behind the world's advanced level!
Sixth, the market-oriented mechanism for renewable energy generation prices has not yet been fully established.
China's renewable energy industries such as wind power and photovoltaic power have not yet formed a complete industrial chain and market operation mechanism, resulting in frequent occurrences of insufficient returns and even losses for some projects.
The government has introduced a series of policy measures to support the healthy development and green transformation of the renewable energy industry, but due to various reasons, the imbalance in the development of renewable energy in China is quite prominent.
Suggestions for future development
In the future, the development of renewable energy in China will face many challenges, among which environmental issues and technological bottlenecks are the biggest challenges. In the future, China needs to adhere to the green development strategy, vigorously develop the combination of clean energy and alternative energy technologies, and build a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient modern energy system.
Firstly, vigorously develop new energy and achieve a transformation from quantity to quality. Before China achieves its carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals, it is necessary to accelerate the continuous progress of new energy technologies, as well as the construction of a new generation of energy systems and industrial transformation and upgrading.
Secondly, by formulating and improving relevant laws, regulations, and policy systems, we can enhance the constraint mechanism and provide institutional guarantees for promoting the rapid and healthy development of renewable energy.
In the next 5-10 years, it is recommended that the country establish an energy system primarily based on renewable energy and vigorously promote the development of renewable energy; Strengthen market supervision; Actively promote the construction of the electricity spot market; Improve the subsidy mechanism for new energy; Promote the construction of a technical support service system and industrial development for the integration and operation of renewable energy into the power grid; Ensure the power security of prioritizing clean energy generation. These are the key factors and guarantee links for renewable energy to play a better role.
To improve the level of clean energy production and consumption, we must accelerate the adjustment of energy consumption structure, increase the proportion of renewable energy in electricity consumption, and actively carry out distributed energy construction to solve the problem of large-scale renewable energy waste. This is one of the future development directions and an important measure to address global environmental challenges such as climate change. In the face of the many challenges that China will face in vigorously developing the renewable energy industry in the future, China will continue to strengthen planning guidance and policy support.
Thirdly, improve the support system for renewable energy technology.
The development of the new energy industry is currently facing problems such as the imbalance between technological development speed and development capacity, and the prominent contradiction between low electricity prices and high energy consumption costs. In response to these issues, China will continue to promote the reform of the power system and technological progress, which plays a crucial role in achieving the transformation from a major energy consuming country to a major energy consuming country and is of great significance on a global scale.
We will seize this opportunity to strengthen the research and development of innovative technologies and significantly improve application efficiency, further enhancing the level and utilization of clean energy consumption.
Suggestions for enterprise initiatives
Industry enterprises should attach great importance to national policy guidance, fully leverage their advantages in technology, talent, funding, etc., and actively respond to the national call to carry out special actions for green development in the new energy industry.
