As the world's largest energy consuming country, how to effectively ensure national energy security and economic and social development has always been the primary issue for China's energy development
Promoting high-level self-reliance and self-improvement in energy technology has become a necessary way to seize the opportunities of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, win the initiative in innovative development, and ensure national energy security
This summer, some areas experienced continuous high temperatures, and the electricity load continued to rise. At the ± 800 kV Yanmenguan converter station of State Grid Shanxi Electric Power, there are five to six thousand large equipment and countless small parts in groups inside the station. It usually takes three days to conduct a complete inspection. Since the heavy load operation, in order to timely identify hidden dangers, the inspection cycle has been shortened by more than half. "Welcoming the peak summer season is a long-lasting battle, and the higher the temperature and heat, the more we must muster up our spirit." The staff's simple language expressed the responsibility and perseverance of various regions to do a good job in ensuring energy and electricity supply.
Energy is the food of industry and the lifeline of the national economy, which is related to the national economy, people's livelihood, and national security.
Security is a prerequisite for development.Energy security and security are the key factors that cannot be ignored in an instant. This is a profound summary of historical experience, a profound insight into reality, and a profound indication for the future.
As the world's largest energy consuming country, how to effectively ensure national energy security and effectively safeguard national economic and social development has always been the primary issue for China's energy development. Especially in the era of accelerated evolution and deep interaction between the two major situations, ensuring energy security is crucial. Looking at the international situation, the increasing instability, uncertainty, and unpredictable factors in today's world are constantly impacting the stability of the global energy supply chain industry chain, increasing fluctuations in the energy market, and exacerbating energy supply shortages. Looking at the domestic market, the current per capita energy consumption level in China is only about two-thirds of the average level of OECD countries. In the future, China's energy demand will continue to maintain rigid growth, and the difficulty and complexity of ensuring energy security are unprecedented; At the same time, as a major manufacturing country, in order to develop the real economy, China must hold the rice bowl of energy in its own hands.
Technology determines the future of energy, and technology creates future energy. The single unit capacity of hydropower has developed from 700000 kilowatts at the Three Gorges hydropower station to the only 1 million kilowatts in the world at the Baihetan hydropower station. Nuclear power has become a shining business card representing "China's creation" from introduction, digestion, absorption, and development to going abroad. Wind power and photovoltaics have also caught up and surpassed each other, achieving electricity costs equivalent to or even lower than coal-fired power... Each case of technological innovation proves that promoting energy technology to achieve high-level self-reliance and self-improvement has become a necessary way to seize the opportunities of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, win the initiative of innovative development, and ensure national energy security. Only by adhering to the core position of innovation in China's energy development and advancing the energy revolution in depth can we fundamentally ensure national energy security.
Energy is also the main battlefield for promoting carbon peak and carbon neutrality.We should not only promote structural adjustment and optimization based on the basic national conditions, enhance comprehensive security capabilities, but also play a positive role as a responsible major country in China. We must adhere to the principle of first establishing, then breaking through, and steadily advancing. We will not engage in "carbon charging", "one size fits all", or campaign style "carbon reduction", and effectively promote the "dual carbon" work in a strong, orderly, and effective manner.
In the southwest region, the world's largest and highest altitude water solar complementary project - the Yalong River Kola Phase I Photovoltaic Power Station has been put into operation; Along the southeast coast, the annual power generation of one nuclear power unit can meet the annual electricity demand for production and life of one million people, and generate a total output value of billions of yuan over its entire lifespan. The key equipment of the independent third-generation nuclear power "Hualong 1" has all achieved localization... Today, China is steadily transitioning towards clean and low-carbon energy, and innovation in the energy field is flourishing. Accelerating the promotion of energy technology self-reliance and self-improvement, accelerating the planning and construction of a new energy system, and striving to promote the construction of an energy strong country, our confidence and confidence in securing our energy rice bowl will be even more abundant.
