China's new energy and renewable energy development Program

(5) The development and utilization of other new and renewable energy sources has also made certain progress. China's geothermal resources have been used quite dry 4 million tons of standard. It is worth mentioning that China's Tibet geothermal development and utilization, Yangbajing geothermal power station has a total installed capacity of 25,000 dry watts, annual generating capacity of 97 million KWH, 50% of the Lhasa grid power supply, is China's largest geothermal power station. In terms of ocean energy development and utilization, China has built tidal power stations with a total installed capacity of 5930 kilowatts and an annual generating capacity of 10.21 million kilowatts. A wave power test plant is also under construction. The development of promising new energy technologies such as hydrogen energy is still in the laboratory experimental research stage.

3. Existing problem

In summary, it can be seen that in the past 20 years, China's new energy and renewable energy technology and development and utilization has indeed made gratifying achievements, and even in some projects in the world's leading position. However, from the overall point of view, whether it is the level of scientific research, development and utilization scale, or industrial development, there is a big gap with the international level. The main problems are:

* Not included in the national energy construction plan;

* Not included in the normal financial allocation channels at all levels;

* Lack of policies and regulations to encourage and support the development of new and renewable energy;

• Too little investment in new and renewable energy, such as solar energy research and development spending less than 1% of the United States, and even less than countries such as India;

* Low degree of commercialization and weak industrialization.

Goals and tasks

1. goal

In the next 15 years, the overall goal of the development of new and renewable energy sources is to improve conversion efficiency, reduce production costs, and increase the proportion of energy in the energy mix. New technology, new technology has a big breakthrough, domestic and foreign mature technology to achieve large-scale, modern production, the formation of a relatively complete production system and service system; The actual use should reach more than 39 million tons of standard coal (including the use of traditional uses of biomass energy, the same below), and contribute to the protection of the environment and the sustainable development of the national economy. This goal can be implemented in two phases, namely:

The first stage; From now to the year 2000, through strengthening scientific and technological research and development and pilot demonstration work, most of the new energy technologies should approach or catch up with the world's advanced level, and some mature and practical technologies should form industries as soon as possible, expand their application and enter the market. Gradually change the traditional inefficient use of biomass, give play to the role of new and renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy, and contribute to solving the problem of electricity consumption in remote and island areas. The total development and utilization of new and renewable energy reached 298 million tons of standard coal.

In the second stage, from 2001 to 2010, we will comprehensively promote the application of new energy technologies, establish a world-advanced industrial system and scientific research system, and basically meet the requirements of large-scale production of major technology projects. The total amount of development and utilization of all kinds of new energy and renewable energy will increase to 39 million tons of standard coal.

2. Quest

In order to achieve the above goals, the main task of the development and utilization of new and renewable energy sources is to select a group of key technologies of great value to the national economy and ecological environment construction during the decade at the end of this century and the beginning of the next century, the focus of its work is to strengthen the pilot demonstration of these technologies and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and promote the formation of industries. Realize commercial production and popularization and application as soon as possible.

The main aspects of the work are:

Research and development of high-yield and multi-functional fuelwood forest species and cultivation technology and fast-growing forest construction technology, the construction of commercial fuelwood forest bases, focusing on farmers in the lack of firewood, serious soil erosion and conditions for the development of fuelwood forest areas, and strive to reach the national fuelwood forest area of 6.4 million hectares in 2000 and 13.4 million hectares in 2010. Plus other annual fuel wood supply of 180 million tons (equivalent to 100 million tons of standard coal) and 27 million tons (154 million tons of standard coal);

On the basis of consolidating and improving the achievements of energy-saving stoves, we will realize the commercial production and sales of residents' coal-saving stoves, improve the industrial system and service system of wood-saving stoves, and make the annual amount of firewood saved reach more than 100 million tons, which is equivalent to about 50 million tons of standard coal.
