In recent years, China’s energy consumption structure is clean and low-carbon transformation is accelerated in line with the trend of energy development. In 2020, the proportion of non fossil energy in primary energy consumption in China will be 15.9%, reaching the world average level, and the proportion of coal consumption will drop to 56.8%.
By vigorously promoting ultra-low emission and energy-saving transformation of coal-fired power units, the level of clean and efficient utilization of fossil energy is also continuously improving. More than 82% of the coal-fired power units have implemented ultra-low emission transformation, and more than 69% of the coal-fired power units have implemented energy-saving transformation. The average coal consumption of power supply in thermal power plants has been reduced to 305.5g/kwh, and the world’s largest clean coal-fired power supply system has been built.
At the same time, China adheres to the concept of green development, resulting in a sharp drop in carbon emission intensity“ In 2020, China’s carbon emission intensity will drop by 48.4% compared with 2005, exceeding the international commitment of 40% – 45% Zhang Jianhua said that China, as the largest developing country in the world, has an arduous task to complete the reduction of the world’s highest carbon emission intensity and achieve the transition from carbon peak to carbon neutral in the shortest time in world history. In order to fulfill this goal on schedule, China will vigorously promote energy transformation in the future from four aspects: actively expanding the clean energy industry, building a new power system with new energy as the main body, vigorously changing the energy consumption mode, and strengthening the research and development and innovative application of clean and low-carbon technologies.
