Energy security is crucial to the overall economic and social development.
Energy security is crucial to the overall economic and social development. This year's government work report proposed "strengthening security capacity in key areas" and "enhancing energy resource security, increasing efforts in the exploration and development of oil, gas, and strategic mineral resources."
In 2023, China's industrial power generation above designated size reached 8.9 trillion kilowatt-hours, strongly supporting the stabilization and recovery of economic growth and the GDP surpassing 126 trillion yuan. Facing this year's GDP growth target of about 5%, how can the energy and power industry better play its fundamental supporting role to serve high-quality economic and social development? Representatives and committee members have engaged in heated discussions on this topic.
Promote the construction of ultra-high voltage and other power infrastructure to enhance power supply security.
The country's installed power generation capacity has exceeded 2.9 billion kilowatts, with annual clean energy power generation surpassing 3.19 trillion kilowatt-hours, and per capita installed power capacity reaching 2.1 kilowatts per person... Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party, China has accelerated the construction of a new energy system, continuously strengthening the foundation of energy security, providing strong support for economic and social development. At the same time, it is important to recognize that China's energy development still faces a series of challenges, including huge demand pressure, many supply constraints, and the arduous task of green and low-carbon transformation.
According to the China Electricity Council, in 2024, China's total electricity consumption is expected to increase by about 6% compared to 2023. Based on China's resource endowment, how can the power supply capacity be further improved to meet the growing electricity demand of the whole society? The government work report proposed "strengthening the construction of large wind and photovoltaic bases and outbound transmission channels, promoting the development and utilization of distributed energy, developing new energy storage, promoting the use and international recognition of green electricity, leveraging coal and coal power as a bottom line, and ensuring energy demand for economic and social development."
In recent years, the State Grid Corporation of China has put into operation a large number of major energy and power arteries such as "West-to-East Power Transmission" and "North-to-South Power Supply." By the end of 2023, a total of 35 ultra-high voltage projects have been completed, effectively ensuring the safe and reliable supply of electricity. Many representatives and committee members have high expectations for the construction of ultra-high voltage and other power infrastructure.
