The 14th Five-Year Plan for Renewable Energy Development was released

        Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Energy Administration and other nine departments jointly issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for Renewable Energy Development". The "Plan" anchors the carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals, and closely focuses on the requirement that the proportion of non-fossil energy consumption reaches about 20% in 2025, setting four major goals.

        First, the total amount target, the total amount of renewable energy consumption in 2025 will reach about 1 billion tons of standard coal, and the increase in renewable energy consumption during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period will account for more than 50% of the increase in primary energy consumption.

        Second, the power generation target. In 2025, the annual power generation of renewable energy will reach about 3.3 trillion kWh. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, the increase in power generation will account for more than 50% of the increase in electricity consumption in the whole society, and wind power and solar power generation will double.

        Third, the consumption target. In 2025, the total amount of renewable energy power and the non-hydropower consumption responsibility weights in the country will reach about 33% and 18% respectively, and the utilization rate will remain at a reasonable level.

        Fourth, the non-electric utilization target is that by 2025, the scale of non-electric utilization such as solar thermal utilization, geothermal heating, biomass heating, and biomass fuel will reach more than 60 million tons of standard coal.

        To implement the above goals, the "14th Five-Year Plan for Renewable Energy Development" deeply implements the new energy security strategy. First, it insists on high-quality leapfrogging development as the theme, quality improvement and efficiency increase as the main line, and reform and innovation as the driving force. Second, it insists on centralized and distributed, onshore and offshore, local consumption and external consumption, single variety development and multi-variety complementarity, single scenario and comprehensive scenario, power generation and non-electricity utilization. Third, it insists on optimizing development with regional layout, supporting development with major bases, leading development with demonstration projects, and implementing development with action plans, focusing on deploying key tasks in five aspects.
