Ten thoughts on the evolution of the underlying logic of the new power system

The new power system will gradually develop into a national integrated infrastructure system that integrates energy infrastructure, digital infrastructure, metering infrastructure, transaction infrastructure, security infrastructure, emergency infrastructure, and institutional infrastructure.

8. The new power system will gradually develop into a comprehensive industrial energy collaborative system that can adapt to the transformation of various industries from high carbon technology routes to low carbon and zero carbon technology routes and always help various industries achieve leapfrog industrial upgrading.

The policy design at different stages of development should be based on the construction of a new collaborative relationship between the energy industry, focus on serving the accelerated upgrading of the national industry and high-quality economic development, and build a new power system with new energy as the main body.

Under the background of the national carbon peak carbon neutral strategy, the leapfrog upgrading of technologies and industries in various industries is inevitably reflected in the improvement of energy use efficiency, the adjustment of energy use structure and the low-carbon and clean development mode. In the future, China's industrial development will inevitably move towards a highly electrified, low-carbon, digital and intelligent road. The construction of a new power system naturally has the characteristics of coordinated development with industrial technological progress and industrial upgrading.

Therefore, the policy design of different development stages should fully understand the energy factor attributes and energy industry attributes of the new power system, actively promote the construction of a new type of industrial energy synergy, and serve the national industrial upgrading and high-quality economic development.

The technological upgrading and low-carbon and zero-carbon transformation of various industries need to be supported by a clean and efficient, intelligent and interactive energy system that is open and shared. We should give full play to the functions of energy factors, focus on breaking down industrial energy barriers, strengthen industrial energy coordination, match the development needs of low-carbon and zero-carbon technologies in various industries, achieve coordination and linkage between various fields of transmission and distribution, various links of source networks, load and storage, electricity and other energy systems, and energy systems and other industries, and constantly penetrate all aspects of the national economic cycle. We will improve the efficiency of social resource allocation in various industries.

The new power system will develop into a new social value creation system that can continuously create new technologies, new equipment, new forms of business, new models, and new industries, thus continuously forming a new economy.

The policy design of different development stages should be based on actively building the industrial incubation function of the new power system, cultivating new industries and new economies with high quality, and creating more social value for the high-quality development of China's economy.

The new power system is the carrier of the coordinated development and interactive development of the energy system and the social system. Under the catalysis of the national carbon peak carbon neutrality goal and the high degree of electrification, digitalization and intelligence, a high-quality new social value creation system will be born.

Policy design at different stages of development should, first, facilitate innovation in equipment and technology. Promote China to accelerate the breakthrough of a number of key technologies such as new energy generation, high-toughness power grid, high-efficiency and high-safety large-capacity energy storage, hydrogen energy and fuel cells, high-efficiency photovoltaic power generation materials, new insulating materials, superconducting materials, and wide band-gap power electronic devices. Focus on CCUS, high-efficiency and low-cost new energy generation, large-scale offshore wind power, virtual power plants, coordinated operation of load and storage of source networks, active demand response, electric hydrogen technology, integrated energy system, digital technology, market trading technology, carbon technology and other new technologies and new equipment, and smooth the development of energy economy in production, flow, distribution and consumption and other links. Accelerating the demonstration, application and promotion of low-carbon technologies will help the clean and low-carbon development of the energy and power industry and the leapfrog upgrading of the industry to accelerate the integration of energy storage technology with digital twin and artificial intelligence technology. China's super-scale market advantages and resource advantages can provide more favorable conditions for the application, promotion, iteration and innovation of new technologies.

The new power system will inevitably develop into a new era of China's power system with significant Chinese characteristics, which can flexibly adapt to the needs of different development stages of the country's carbon peak and carbon neutrality, and continue to meet the requirements of the new strategy of ecological civilization construction, common prosperity and national energy security.
