Letter on Reply to Proposals No. 0429 and No. B097 of the Fourth Session of the Thirteenth National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
Guonengti Planning [2021] No. 4
The "Proposal on Accelerating the Adjustment of the Energy Structure" and "Proposal on Accelerating the Transformation and Upgrading of Electric Power Equipment to Help Achieve the Carbon Neutrality Target" have been received. After consulting the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Transport, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the reply is as follows:
my country's carbon emissions from energy activities account for about 88% of the total carbon dioxide emissions. Accelerating the green and low-carbon transformation of the energy structure is the key to promoting carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. In recent years, we have adhered to Xi Jinping's thought on ecological civilization as the fundamental principle, fully implemented the new energy security strategy of "four revolutions and one cooperation", coordinated ecological environmental protection and energy development, and achieved positive results in the construction of a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system . The ninth meeting of the Central Finance and Economics Committee emphasized that "the 14th Five-Year Plan is a critical period and a window period for carbon peaking" and "the green and low-carbon development of energy is the key". In the next step, we will thoroughly implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's major announcements and instructions on addressing climate change, and fully implement the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee and the State Council on carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. The "14th Five-Year Plan" energy plan was formulated, and the adjustment of energy structure was accelerated.
1. About strengthening the total amount control and promoting the green transformation of coal production and consumption
In recent years, we have implemented the "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Comprehensively Strengthening Ecological Environmental Protection and Resolutely Fighting the Tough Battle of Pollution Prevention and Control" and the "Notice of the State Council on Printing and Distributing the Three-Year Action Plan for Winning the Blue Sky Defense War". The Ministry and other departments have solidly promoted the reduction and replacement of coal consumption and the clean and efficient utilization of coal. Vigorously eliminate backward coal production capacity, reduce excess production capacity, and implement renewable energy and clean energy such as natural gas and electricity to replace coal consumption, driving the proportion of coal consumption to drop significantly to 56.8% in 2020. 100 million kilowatts of coal-fired power units have achieved ultra-low emissions, built the world's largest clean coal-fired power supply system, and replaced more than 25 million households with scattered coal in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas and the Fenwei Plain. Promote the construction of green mines, and build 9 green mining development demonstration zones and 284 green mines.
In the next step, we will focus on coal to control fossil energy consumption. Strictly control coal power projects, strictly control the growth of coal consumption during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and gradually reduce it during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period. In the fields of clean heating, industrial production, agricultural production and processing, and building cooling and heating, the “coal-to-electricity”, “coal-to-gas” and “coal-to-biomass” projects will be promoted in an orderly manner according to local conditions, and the level of low-carbon electrification of end-use energy will be improved. , greatly reducing the consumption of loose coal. Continue to promote clean heating in winter in the northern region, reduce the demand for coal for heating, promote the transformation of cogeneration and comprehensive utilization of industrial waste heat and pressure, encourage public institutions and residents to use non-coal-fired high-efficiency heating products, and gradually phase out the heating system within the coverage of the heating pipe network. Coal-fired small boilers and loose coal. Comprehensively and deeply expand the substitution of electric energy, vigorously promote the clean substitution of coal-fired self-provided power plants, and actively promote technologies such as electric boilers, electric kilns, electric irrigation and drainage, and electric heating in key industries such as iron and steel, foundry, glass, ceramics, and agriculture. The proportion of terminal energy consumption is about 30%.
2. About accelerating structural transformation and building a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system
Since the 13th Five-Year Plan, we have vigorously developed non-fossil energy, continued to optimize the energy structure, and achieved remarkable results in the low-carbon transition. More than 60% of the incremental energy consumption is supplied by clean energy. In 2020, the proportion of non-fossil energy consumption in my country will reach 15.9%, and the installed capacity of hydropower, wind power, solar power, and nuclear power will reach 370 million kilowatts, 280 million kilowatts, 250 million kilowatts, and 50 million kilowatts, respectively. The installed capacity of non-fossil energy power generation ranks first in the world. one. Promote the transformation of energy consumption in key industries and fields.
