National Energy Administration: China will take multiple measures to ensure energy security

The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to implement carbon peaking actions step by step and further promote the energy revolution
.
The reporter learned at the first press conference of the 20th National News Center on October 17 that China will ensure the resilience and sustainability of energy supply through a variety of measures, keep the energy bottom line, and ensure energy security
.

Ren Jingdong, member of the party leading group and deputy director of the National Energy Administration, said at the meeting that as a major energy producer and consumer, ensuring energy security has always been the primary task of doing a good job
in energy work.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the scientific guidance of General Secretary Xi Jinping's new energy security strategy of "four revolutions and one cooperation", China's multi-wheel drive energy supply system has been gradually improved, the quality and efficiency of supply have been continuously improved, and the energy self-sufficiency rate has remained above 80%, providing a solid energy guarantee
for promoting high-quality economic and social development.
In the next step, China will focus on guarding the bottom line
of energy security from three aspects.

First, it is necessary to firmly grasp the foundation and strengthen the foundation
.
Adhere to the domestic diversified supply to ensure safety, give full play to the role of coal ballast and the basic regulating role of coal power, vigorously enhance oil and gas exploration and development, and strive to reach an annual comprehensive domestic energy production capacity of more than
4.
6 billion tons of standard coal by 2025.
At the same time, it is necessary to further establish and improve the coal and oil reserve system, especially accelerate the construction of storage warehouses, liquefied natural gas receiving stations and other facilities to ensure that energy supply maintains a reasonable flexibility margin
.

Second, it is necessary to firmly grasp orderly substitution
.
Comprehensively build a clean energy supply system such as wind, light, water and nuclear, solidly promote the construction of major hydropower and nuclear power projects, coordinate and promote the construction of large-scale wind power photovoltaic bases focusing on deserts, Gobi and desert areas, and develop other renewable energy sources such as biomass energy and geothermal energy according to local conditions to ensure that the proportion of non-fossil energy consumption reaches about 20% by 2025 and about
25% by 2030.

The third is to do a solid job in risk management and control
.
Vigorously promote the capacity building of energy security monitoring and early warning, establish and improve early warning mechanisms such as coal, oil and gas, and power supply and demand, continuously strengthen infrastructure construction such as emergency support power supply and pipe network interconnection, solidly improve the level of regional mutual assistance and multi-energy complementarity, and further improve emergency response and rescue and disaster relief capabilities
.

Ren Jingdong said that while further consolidating the foundation of conventional energy supply, China will vigorously develop renewable energy, actively promote green and low-carbon transformation, and strive to provide strong energy guarantee
for high-quality economic and social development.
It is necessary to focus on situation monitoring and operation management; Coordinate and secure the supply of fuel for power generation; strengthening coal power capacity construction; Promote the high-quality development of the oil and gas industry; Vigorously develop clean energy
.

"It is necessary to coordinate and promote the construction of production, supply, storage and marketing systems, vigorously improve oil and gas exploration and development, and constantly improve the oil and gas import guarantee system
.
" At present, domestic crude oil production has increased for three consecutive years, natural gas production has increased by more than 10 billion cubic meters for five consecutive years, the reserve capacity of oil and gas has been steadily improved, and the bottom gas of stable market supply has been further enhanced
