Wind power into the third largest energy

2014 New Energy Forum held in Beijing, Tianjin Huayuan Industrial District. Learned from this forum, wind power has become the third largest nuclear power over power, wind power, photovoltaic, represented new domestic energy industry is out of the woods. In guests opinion, from the point of view of domestic and foreign experience, policy support is one of the key drivers of the development of new energy industry. Next, focus on the industry's weak link, the government should introduce more targeted, operational policies, guidelines to the industry more healthy direction.
Wind power into the third largest power

New energy industry seems to have come out of the most difficult period. Reporter yesterday learned from the forum, by the end of 2013, the national total installed capacity of wind power and 78 million kilowatts of wind power into the period of steady growth, the annual installed capacity of 15.34 million kilowatts.

In recent years, by the power grid consumptive effects of wind power utilization hours continue to decrease in 2012, the national average utilization hours only 1890 hours. But in 2013, the situation has improved, preliminary estimates annual average utilization hours over 2000 hours. It is noteworthy that, as the country's wind power generating capacity of rapid growth, in 2013, wind power generating capacity reached 140 billion kwh over nuclear power has become the third largest power. At the same time, with the introduction of a series of national policy, photovoltaic power generation into the explosive growth stage, the 2013 cumulative PV installed capacity reached 15 million kilowatts, of which photovoltaic power plant installed capacity reached 10 million kilowatts, an increase of 130% compared to the same period in 2012.

Reporters learned that, with the launch of Chinese PV market in 2013 photovoltaic cells marked improvement in shipping companies, China's top ten photovoltaic cell manufacturing shipments reached 16.6 million kilowatts.

Reform and innovation break ills

Although the industry is moving towards a good direction, but the problem still can not be ignored. Director of Energy Development Center of the National Renewable Energy Ren Dongming noted that consumptive power system capacity of wind power is still a large potential to be tapped, distributed wind power, offshore wind is still relatively slow development process, the development potential has not been released. At the same time, the cost of photovoltaic power generation is still relatively high, the western base of large solar power is also facing challenges abandoned light limited power, distributed power generation PV support mechanisms, business models, management system is still not perfect.

The industry experts, the industry's short board in addition to the industry's own problems, but also with the lack of execution rigid policy, planning and introduction of lag associated with lack of planning and coordination, compensation is often plagued by lack of funds the development of other related industries.

"Promoting energy production and consumption revolution, the implementation of total energy consumption intensity and" dual control ", the implementation of" Atmospheric Pollution Prevention Action Plan ", deepen energy price formation mechanism reform," the expert opinion it would be China's future energy policy basic orientation.

"For the common problems, we believe that from the institutional obstacles at the central level need to address the specific action is to promote the reform and institutional innovation, mechanism design for the special problems encountered by local local resolve themselves." Any Dongming pointed to a distributed PV, for example, with regard to self-occupied, let the market decide, let the user choose to install, own, and the Internet is open, should reduce government intervention. Currently there is no market in the self-occupied individual users, in the future, can be considered like the United States, giving individual residential customers in certain investment subsidies.

While in other guests opinion, the state should introduce as soon as Beijing, Tianjin and regional integration of energy supply security program. Hebei University of Technology Professor Wang Huajun, said Beijing, Tianjin and the new energy industry should be placed in a chess game being considered, the respective advantages, complementarities in the region join forces to promote development of the industry.
