2012 clean energy or will usher in a new wave of development

On February 23, Sun Yucai, executive vice chairman of the China Electricity Council (CEC), stated at the 2012 China Clean Power Summit that the development of clean electricity in China is facing new opportunities and challenges, and that the Chinese power industry will adjust its structure. Actively develop clean energy and renewable energy.

Liu Baohua, director of the market supervision department of the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, said, “The prospects for clean power generation in China are very broad, and there are huge overall benefits and business opportunities.”

Clean energy is valued Deputy Director of the National Development and Reform Commission and Director of the National Energy Administration Liu Tienan pointed out at the 2012 National Energy Work Conference held on February 10 that efforts should be made to promote energy structure adjustments under the premise of ecological protection and resettlement. Actively develop hydropower. In 2012, the scale of newly-started hydropower reached 20 million kilowatts. Promote the coordinated development of the natural gas industry, achieve rapid growth in domestic production, and vigorously develop unconventional natural gas.

In terms of wind power and solar energy, the meeting proposed to actively and orderly develop wind power and organize the implementation of the second batch of wind power projects with a scale of 15 to 18 million kilowatts during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period. Actively develop solar energy and organize the implementation of the first batch of development plans with a scale of 3 million kilowatts during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period.

At the same time, the people's livelihood energy project construction is expected to progress positively this year. Liu Tienan said that in 2012, 600,000 people will be re-solved without electricity, and the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” will strive to comprehensively solve the problem of 5 million people without electricity.

We will vigorously promote rural energy development, arrange for a total investment of 65 billion yuan in the budget of the central government, and continue to implement reconstruction and upgrading of rural power grids.

In addition, in the remote farming and pastoral areas, a number of solar power plants, wind-solar hybrid power plants, and solar thermal utilization facilities will be built. To improve the living energy use conditions of urban residents, during the “12th Five-Year Plan” period, the number of people using natural gas will increase by 100 million to a total of 250 million. In 2012, the second phase of the West-East Gas Pipeline project opened in Hong Kong to enhance Hong Kong’s energy security capabilities.

Increase in the proportion of clean energy installed capacity According to data from China Communications, China’s clean energy power station’s proportion of installed power has been rising. By the end of 2011, the share of clean energy generated by hydropower, nuclear power, wind power, and solar energy accounted for 27.5%, which was an increase of 0.9% from the previous year.

Among them, China's hydropower installed capacity has reached 230 million kilowatts, ranking first in the world, accounting for 21.8% of the country's installed capacity. Nuclear power installed capacity was 12.57 million kilowatts, accounting for 1.19% of the installed capacity. Wind power entered a stable development period, and the installed capacity of the grid connection reached 45.05 million kilowatts, accounting for 4.27% of the total capacity. Grid-connected solar power capacity reached 2.14 million kilowatts, grid-connected biomass power generation was 4.36 million kilowatts, geothermal energy was 24,200 kilowatts, and ocean energy was 0.6 million kilowatts.

At the same time, China has become a major producer of clean energy power generation equipment in the world. The 700,000 kilowatt hydropower generating units have been domestically produced, and dam construction, design, installation, guidance, and operation of large hydropower generating units have taken the lead in the world. Wind power equipment has grown toward large-scale and intelligent. Now the mainstream units have been upgraded to 1.5 to 2 MW. 3 MW of offshore wind power has already been installed in batches, and 5 to 6 MW of wind turbines have been manufactured offline. The conversion efficiency of solar photovoltaic power generation is obviously improved, and the maximum conversion efficiency of commercial crystalline silicon photovoltaic power generation can reach about 20%.

At present, the world's energy pattern is changing from focusing on fossil energy to developing green energy. The Chinese government proposes that non-fossil energy will account for about 15% of primary energy by 2020, and the proportion of unit GDP of carbon dioxide will decline by 40 to 45% compared with 2005.

Global hot investment in new energy According to the reporter's understanding, the total amount of new clean energy investment in the world still increased by 5% year-on-year to reach US$260 billion in 2011, an increase of nearly 4 times compared to the US$53.6 billion in 2004. Among them, investment in the solar energy sector has become the biggest driving force and far exceeds wind energy. Most notably, U.S. clean energy investment surpassed China for the first time since 2008. From the data compilation of Bloomberg New Energy Finance that began in 2004, the cumulative global clean energy investment in 2011 has exceeded US$1 trillion.

Among them, the total investment in solar technology in 2011 surged 36% to 136.6 billion U.S. dollars, becoming a bright spot for clean energy investment. This amount of investment is almost double the total investment of 74.9 billion U.S. dollars in wind power generation, and wind power investment has dropped by 17% compared with the previous year. This is not the first time that solar energy investment exceeds wind energy. According to data revised by Bloomberg New Energy Finance in previous years, solar energy investment exceeded wind power twice in 2004 and 2010, but in 2011, there was a huge gap.

Michael Liebreich, chief executive officer of Bloomberg New Energy Finance, said that if the price of PV modules drops by nearly 50% in 2011 and by 75% from the middle of 2008, the investment in solar energy will increase even more significantly. With the decrease in the cost of solar photovoltaic technology, the price of solar energy has become more competitive with other generation energy sources, and the sales volume of photovoltaic modules has grown even more.

The third largest area of ​​clean energy investment, second only to solar energy and wind energy, was smart energy-saving technologies, including smart grids, electricity storage, efficiency, and advanced transportation. The total investment was 19.2 billion U.S. dollars, a 17% drop from 2010. Most of the investment in this area is focused on the R&D investment of the company and the financing through VC and PE.

In the area of ​​renewable energy with small investment, biofuels increased from US$8.6 billion to US$9 billion, while total investment in biomass and waste energyization dropped 18% to US$10.8 billion, and geothermal energy investment dropped from US$3.2 billion to 28%. In billions of U.S. dollars, SHP fell 25% to 3 billion U.S. dollars.

Broad prospects for clean power generation At present, China has become a major producer of clean energy power generation equipment in the world. The 700,000 kilowatt hydropower generating units have been domestically produced, and dam construction, design, installation, guidance, and operation of large hydropower generating units have taken the lead in the world. Wind power equipment has grown toward large-scale and intelligent. Now the mainstream units have been upgraded to 1.5-2 megawatts. 3 megawatts of offshore wind power have already been installed in batches, and 5-6 MW wind turbines have been manufactured offline. The conversion efficiency of solar photovoltaic power generation is obviously improved, and the maximum conversion efficiency of commercial crystalline silicon photovoltaic power generation can reach about 20%.

At present, the world's energy pattern is changing from focusing on fossil energy to developing green energy. The Chinese government proposes that non-fossil energy will account for about 15% of primary energy by 2020, and the proportion of unit GDP of carbon dioxide will decline by 40 to 45% compared with 2005.

Sun Yucai said, “This has brought new opportunities and challenges for the development of clean power. China's power industry will strengthen the construction of a strong smart grid, further improve the ability of the power grid to optimize the allocation of resources, adhere to the principle of saving priority, and further promote energy-saving emission reduction Work, rely on scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the promotion of low-emission, less-polluting energy-efficient energy-saving technologies and power equipment, and promote the transformation of power development methods."

Liu Baohua, director of the market supervision department of the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, said, “The prospects for clean power generation in China are very broad, and there are huge overall benefits and business opportunities.”

However, Liu Baohua also admitted that “in terms of the overall level, the proportion of clean electricity in China is still relatively low, and there is still a large gap between the efficiency of energy use and the world’s advanced level.”
