The responsible comrades of the Science and Technology Department of the National Energy Administration and the High-tech Department of the Ministry of Science and Technology answered reporters' questions on the "14th Five-Year Plan for Scientific and Technological Innovation in the Energy Sector"

Recently, the National Energy Administration and the Ministry of Science and Technology have issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for Scientific and Technological Innovation in the Energy Sector" (Guonengfa Science and Technology [2021] No.

1.

Energy is a priority area of ​​national security and development

Entering the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, driven by the dual drive of the energy revolution and the digital revolution, a new round of global technological revolution and industrial transformation is in the ascendant

But at the same time, there is still a significant gap between China's energy technology innovation and the world's energy technology powerhouse and the inherent requirements of leading the energy revolution, which are highlighted as follows: First, some energy technology and equipment still have shortcomings

To this end, the National Energy Administration and the Ministry of Science and Technology jointly compiled and issued the "Plan", which proposed the overall goal of energy technology innovation during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and determined it according to the "three batches" path of centralized research, demonstration experiments and application promotion.

2.

The "Plan" is guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, thoroughly implements the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the 19th Plenary Sessions, and fully implements the "Four Revolutions, One Cooperation" new energy security strategy and innovation-driven development strategy, focusing on Guarantee energy security, promote energy transformation, lead the energy revolution, and support the goals of "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality", adhere to the core position of innovation in the overall energy development, coordinate development and security, and achieve self-reliance and self-reliance in energy technology.

The "Planning" follows the basic principles of "reinforcing weak links, supporting development", "forging long boards, leading the future", "relying on projects, focusing on practical results", "coordinated innovation and forming joint forces", based on the current and long-term perspective, put forward the "fourteenth" The overall goal of energy technology innovation during the Five-Year Plan period is: to basically achieve breakthroughs in the existing major short-board technologies and equipment in the energy field; forward-looking and disruptive energy technologies are rapidly emerging, new business forms and new models continue to emerge, and a number of new energy long-board technologies are formed.

3.

The "Plan" focuses on advanced renewable energy, new power systems, safe and efficient nuclear energy, development and utilization of green and efficient fossil energy, and digital and intelligent energy.

First, advanced renewable energy power generation and comprehensive utilization technology

The second is the new power system and its supporting technologies

The third is safe and efficient nuclear energy technology

Fourth, the development and utilization of green and efficient fossil energy technology

Fifth, the digital and intelligent technology of the energy system

4.
What safeguards does the Plan propose?

In order to ensure the orderly development of energy science and technology innovation during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the "Plan" focuses on innovation synergy mechanism, innovation platform system, demonstration application of achievements, main body status of enterprises, technical standard system, planned financial support, international cooperation in science and technology, and scientific and technological talents.
In eight aspects, including training, relevant safeguard measures were put forward
.

The first is to improve the coordination mechanism of energy technology innovation
.
On the basis of strengthening departmental coordination, guide local governments to improve supporting policies for energy science and technology, and support the establishment of cross-field and cross-disciplinary innovation consortia
.
The second is to improve the energy technology innovation platform system
.
Establish and improve various energy technology innovation platform systems at the national, departmental, local, and enterprise levels, and build an open and cooperative innovation ecosystem for co-creation and sharing
.
The third is to promote the demonstration and application of energy scientific and technological achievements
.
Improve the first (set) policy of energy equipment, encourage local governments and users to formulate supporting measures, and promote demonstration applications on the principle of "everything must be used"
.
The fourth is to highlight the dominant position of enterprises in technological innovation
.
Encourage enterprises of all types of ownership to carry out strong alliances and in-depth industry-university-research collaboration around the energy industry chain and innovation chain, and focus on making breakthroughs in key core technologies
.
Fifth, optimize the technical standard system of the energy industry
.
Accelerate the construction of a new energy standard system, cultivate and develop social group standards, and promote the internationalization of energy standards
.
Sixth, increase financial support for energy science and technology
.
Attract all kinds of social capital to invest in the field of energy technology
.
Seventh, strengthen international cooperation in energy technology innovation
.
Based on independent innovation under the conditions of opening up, actively participate in the pragmatic cooperation of multilateral mechanisms and international organizations in the field of energy science and technology
.
The eighth is to accelerate the cultivation of innovative talents in energy science and technology
.
Relying on major energy projects to accelerate the training of young and middle-aged backbone talents in technology research and development, technology management, achievement transformation, etc.
, to meet the supply of interdisciplinary professionals
.
