This year, the national energy output will reach about 4.41 billion tons of standard coal

The "Guiding Opinions on Energy Work in 2022" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guiding Opinions") recently issued by the National Energy Administration proposed that the total national energy production will reach about 4.41 billion tons of standard coal, about 200 million tons of crude oil, and 214 billion cubic meters of natural gas. about. To ensure sufficient power supply, the installed power capacity will reach about 2.6 billion kilowatts, the power generation capacity will reach about 9.07 trillion kilowatt-hours, the new peak power generation capacity will be over 80 million kilowatts, and the power transmission capacity of "West-East Power Transmission" will reach about 290 million kilowatts.
The "Guiding Opinions" put forward that to ensure the security and stable supply of energy as the primary task, focus on enhancing the domestic energy production guarantee capacity, and earnestly hold the energy job in our own hands.
On the one hand, strengthen the guarantee capability of coal-fired power generation. Yang Kun, executive vice chairman of the China Electricity Council, said that although the proportion of domestic coal-fired power installed capacity has dropped to less than 50%, it still accounts for about 60% of the total power generation, and it is still the main power source for the country's power supply. The "Guiding Opinions" proposes to scientifically plan and construct advanced coal-fired power units, arrange a certain scale of supporting power sources to ensure the safety of power supply and regulated power sources to promote new energy consumption as needed, maintain a reasonable margin of installed capacity, and strictly implement coal consumption for new projects. and other latest technical standards. In addition, this year, on the premise of ensuring stable power supply and meeting power demand, we will actively promote the "three reforms and linkages" of coal-fired power units for energy-saving and consumption-reducing transformation, heating transformation and flexibility transformation.
On the other hand, the Company continued to enhance its oil and gas exploration and development efforts. The "Guiding Opinions" clearly states that the "14th Five-Year Plan" and the implementation plan for oil and gas exploration and development will be implemented, the annual exploration and development investment and workload will be consolidated, the development and application of advanced oil and gas extraction technologies will be accelerated, the momentum of increasing reserves and production will be consolidated, and the 2022 plan will be resolutely completed. The output of crude oil has returned to the established target of 200 million tons, and the output of natural gas has continued to increase steadily.
At the same time, accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of energy. The relevant person in charge of the National Energy Administration said that the "14th Five-Year Plan" is a critical period and a window period for carbon peaking, and green and low-carbon development of energy is the key. The "Guiding Opinions" require that the transformation of the energy structure be steadily promoted. The proportion of coal consumption has steadily declined, the proportion of non-fossil energy in total energy consumption has increased to about 17.3%, the new electric energy has replaced about 180 billion kWh of electricity, and the proportion of wind power and photovoltaic power generation in the total electricity consumption has reached about 12.2% . In the development of wind power and photovoltaics, the "Thousands of Towns and Tens of Villages Action to Harness the Wind" and the "Thousands of Households Shine Light Action" were organized according to local conditions. Make full use of the land and roof resources of oil and gas mining areas, industrial and mining areas, and industrial parks to develop distributed wind power and photovoltaics. At the same time, the construction of major hydropower and nuclear power projects will be promoted in an orderly manner, and new models of new energy industries will be actively developed.
