The “coal burning urgency” is eased, and the string of energy structure adjustment cannot be loosened

With the continuous implementation of measures to increase coal production and supply, the release of coal production capacity across the country has been accelerated recently, the daily output of coal dispatching hit a record high, and the shutdown of coal-fired power units across the country has been cleared to zero. This means that the tight situation of power supply and demand in the early stage has been greatly eased.
Since this year, domestic coal and electricity supply has been tight. The reason is related to the strong growth in energy demand brought about by the domestic economic recovery as the epidemic eases. In response to this, many departments have recently launched a package of measures to stabilize the energy supply, and various localities have also actively introduced countermeasures. Under the combined effect, coal production in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Xinjiang and other provinces all hit new highs in recent years, laying a firmer foundation for the national energy supply and price stabilization work.
Although the “urgency of burning coal” has been temporarily eased, the exposed energy structure is too dependent on coal, power generation is dominated by thermal power, and the proportion of new energy power generation is still low, and other long-standing problems are still outstanding. In the context of advancing green and low-carbon and fulfilling the promise of the “dual-carbon” goal, the string of energy structure adjustment cannot be loosened.
Accelerating the adjustment of the energy structure is a key move to achieve a green and low-carbon transition and high-quality economic development. It will also bring about a broad and profound systemic change from the adjustment of the energy structure to the industrial structure. The “Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on the Complete, Accurate and Comprehensive Implementation of the New Development Concept to Do a Good Job in Carbon Peaking and Carbon Neutrality” and the “Carbon Peaking Action Plan by 2030” and other important “dual-carbon” documents have been issued successively, demonstrating my country’s firm green development. Firm determination of economic transformation and upgrading. At the just-concluded “United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change” at the 26th Conference of the Parties, China has always actively communicated and consulted with relevant parties in a constructive manner, contributed China’s wisdom and China’s plans, and further issued a strong green development strategy. Voice, showing the responsibility of a major country.
For the new beginning of the “14th Five-Year Plan”, we should seize the opportunity to move towards high-quality development, play a “game of chess” from the central to the local level, prioritize the reduction of value-added, high-polluting and high-energy-consuming industries, and promote the country’s energy supply to be more efficient. , Clean and diversified development, encourage the development of advanced manufacturing and high-tech industries, and focus on improving the modernization, intelligence and cleanliness of the industrial chain… Promote the implementation of the “dual carbon” goal with pragmatic actions, and take sustainable and healthy economic development as The people seek long-term happiness.
