Do a good job in clean utilization of coal and increase the capacity of new energy consumption

CCTV News:Energy is the foundation of economic development. This year’s Central Economic Work Conference pointed out that to correctly understand and grasp peak carbon dioxide emissions’s carbon neutrality, the gradual withdrawal of traditional energy sources should be based on the safe and reliable substitution of new energy sources. How to balance the relationship between traditional energy and new energy? Let’s look at the interpretation of experts.

Lin Weibin, Director of Energy Policy Research Center of China Energy Research Association:Low-carbon transformation should vigorously develop renewable energy. Between these new development forces and the original traditional technical forces, there will be a natural, trade-off alternative transformation process, instead of "tearing down the old house before the new house is built", it is necessary to realize the organic unity of economic development and carbon reduction, rather than mutual exclusion.

The meeting pointed out that it is necessary to base on the basic national conditions of coal, do a good job in clean and efficient utilization of coal, increase the capacity of new energy consumption, and promote the optimal combination of coal and new energy.

Xu Chunming, Dean of Carbon Neutralization and Future Technology College of China Shiyou University:Actively develop new energy sources and pay more attention to the clean, efficient and high-quality utilization of kerosene gas fossil energy.

Du Zhongming, Dean of Electric Power Planning and Design Institute:In the future, the orientation of coal-fired power will be gradually adjusted in the "14th Five-Year Plan" to give more play to the security support function of power grid and power system.

The meeting pointed out that it is necessary to make scientific assessment, add renewable energy and energy consumption of raw materials not to be included in the total energy consumption control, create conditions to realize the transformation from "double control" of energy consumption to "double control" of total carbon emission and intensity as soon as possible, and accelerate the formation of incentive and restraint mechanisms to reduce pollution and carbon to prevent simple layer-by-layer decomposition. We should pay close attention to tackling key problems with green and low-carbon technologies.

Du Zhongming, Dean of Electric Power Planning and Design Institute:Scientific and technological innovation is the key to achieve the goal of "double carbon". In the fields of new energy-friendly power generation technology, high-proportion new energy transmission technology, new energy storage technology, intelligent regulation technology and low-carbon technology of traditional power supply, it is urgent to break through a number of key technologies, realize engineering application as soon as possible, and effectively increase the proportion of new energy generation.
