China Electricity Council: It is expected that by 2030, the proportion of non-fossil energy power generation installed capacity in my country will be close to 70%

The “Report” points out that domestic power construction investment is strong and green and low-carbon initiatives continue to advance. In 2023, my country’s power engineering investment will increase significantly year-on-year. The country’s major power companies will complete investment of 1.55 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 24.7%. Among them, the investment in power plant construction was 1.025 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 37.7%, and the investment in power grid construction was 527.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.4%. Investment in new energy sources such as Wind Power, hydropower, and solar energy accounted for 79.2% of the total investment, of which wind power investment increased by 36.9% year-on-year, hydropower investment increased by 18.0% year-on-year, and solar power generation investment increased by 50.7% year-on-year. New energy has become the focus of investment in power construction and has maintained a high growth rate.

In addition, the installed capacity of various types of power generation in my country will increase year-on-year in 2023, especially the installed capacity of new energy power generation will increase significantly. As of the end of 2023, the country’s total installed power generation capacity reached 2.92 billion kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of 14.0%. Among them, wind power, hydropower, solar power and other new energy power generation installed capacity account for more than 50%. In 2023, the country’s newly installed power generation capacity will be 37,067 MW, a year-on-year increase of 86.7%. Among them, the newly added power generation installed capacity of wind power, hydropower and solar power was 30,318 MW, accounting for 81.8% of the newly added power generation installed capacity. The focus of power generation construction continues to shift to new energy and new energy fields. Flexible power supply.

Zhu Huiping, secretary-general of the China Electricity Council, said that as the proportion of non-fossil energy power generation continues to increase, renewable energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaics will become the mainstay of new energy. It is expected that by 2030, the proportion of my country’s non-fossil energy power generation installed capacity will be close to 70%, and the proportion of wind power and solar power in the country’s power generation will also increase significantly. The construction of large-scale wind power, photovoltaic bases and offshore wind power bases has been further accelerated, and the installed scale of renewable energy has steadily expanded.
Driven by the new generation of information technology, the intelligent transformation of the power construction industry is accelerating. New technologies represented by cloud computing, big data, and artificial intelligence are widely used in the field of power engineering, and new technologies such as intelligent construction, intelligent operation and maintenance, and intelligent testing are constantly emerging.
