Renewable energy status and development prospects

From the current situation of China's renewable energy development, based on China's resource endowment and load center was reverse distribution characteristics, resources and load matching is relatively poor, and some areas of the local consumption difficulties; "Three North" region in the power structure of the power supply peak power supply is relatively small, especially the proportion of self-supplied power plant heating unit is large, in the winter heating period Peaking capacity is further limited; China's economy has entered a new normal, power demand has slowed down, there is a relative surplus of installed capacity; auxiliary services policy is not in place, or the implementation of ineffective; renewable energy development and construction of faster, supporting the planning and construction of the grid is relatively lagging behind, the power corridor transmission capacity has yet to be improved.

Overall, the "13th Five-Year Plan" period to actively and steadily develop hydropower, comprehensive and coordinated to promote the development of wind power, promote the diversified use of solar energy, the development of biomass energy, accelerate the development and utilization of geothermal energy, while promoting the demonstration of ocean energy generation. In addition the development of renewable energy industry in the heating, fuel, gas supply and other aspects of the development of a clear goal: heating system of solar water heaters 800 million square meters, geothermal energy utilization of 160,000,000 square meters; fuel industry in the biofuel ethanol production of 4 million tons per annum, 2 million tons of biodiesel per annum; gas supply to reach an annual output of 8 billion cubic meters.
