Energy issues: blowing "clear" wind

Energy blew the "clear" wind and changed the library of this year's issues. Clean energy, represented by natural gas, hydropower, and wind power, has become the focus of attention for delegates.

According to incomplete statistics, on behalf of the committee's proposal bills, panel discussions, and interviews with reporters, 8 types of clean energy are mentioned, including natural gas, coalbed methane, shale gas, hydropower, wind power, nuclear power, solar energy, and bioenergy.

The representative committee made suggestions and suggestions on clean energy and greatly expanded the development of clean energy.

Clean energy is an alternative energy source for coal and can substantially reduce pollutants such as PM2.5. Many deputies believe that clean energy is a "good recipe" for the treatment of the current haze.

Wang Hongju, deputy chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese National Environmental and Resources Protection Committee, said: “In view of the serious air, water, and soil pollution in some localities, we must establish a force-reduction mechanism to set a cap on the total amount of coal used in the country. We will develop nuclear energy and promote the use of clean energy such as natural gas and shale gas," said Lu Qizhou, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and general manager of China Power Investment Corporation. "The data show that China's total generation of pollutants has been declining year by year as the total generation of electricity has grown rapidly. However, thermal power is still a big polluter.” He suggested adjusting the energy structure, encouraging the development of clean energy such as wind power and solar energy, replacing coal with electricity, and reducing non-electricity coal.

In the past, China’s energy structure was dominated by coal. According to statistics, in 2012, the ratio of natural gas consumption to primary energy in China was 4.7%, hydropower was 7.1%, and coal was 68.5%.

The deputies clearly saw the "niche" identity of clean energy in China's energy structure, and insisted on fundamentally changing this imbalance structure. Wang Yongmin, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and deputy director of the National Energy Administration, gave suggestions: increase the proportion of non-fossil energy generation, change the current energy structure based on coal-fired power, promote a batch of nuclear power projects in a safe and orderly manner, and vigorously promote new and renewable energy sources. , Widely promote the use of distributed energy.

Energy is the lifeline of the national economy and plays a decisive role in the development of the country. The emphasis of its structure can affect the comprehensive development benefits and sustainable development quality of the economy, environment, and people's livelihood as small as one region and as large as one country. It is extraordinary.

Some deputies proposed to consider the clean part of the energy structure from the perspective of national strategy and regional planning. On behalf of Yan Fulong, the National Committee of the People's Republic of China proposed to increase the use of electricity alternatives as a national strategy, and advocated increasing the proportion of electric energy in terminal energy consumption, such as substitution of industrial electric energy, replacement of electric boilers, replacement of electricity in rural and urban and rural areas, and electric vehicles. Rail transit, port (terminal) "electricity substitution" project, cold storage heat storage technology and other research work, and promote the transformation of results.

For the future of clean energy, the representative committee is full of expectations. It is believed that the energy industry will usher in the spring of clean development under the encouragement of the "Spring Overture" of clean energy.
