On February 13, the National Energy Administration held a regular press conference in Beijing to announce the development of renewable energy in 2022, and introduce the work progress of improving the green power certificate system for renewable energy and new energy storage in the country The scale of installed capacity and the scale of transactions in the national power market, and answer questions from reporters.
Last year, the National Energy Administration anchored the goal of carbon neutrality at the peak of carbon, strengthened top-level design, made good policy supply, and coordinated energy security supply and green and low-carbon development. According to Wang Dapeng, deputy director of the New Energy and Renewable Energy Department of the National Energy Administration, in 2022, my country's renewable energy will show a good trend of rapid development, good operation quality, high utilization level, and strong industrial competitiveness, and has achieved many milestones. new grades. Major progress has been made in major renewable energy projects in my country. The newly installed capacity of wind power and photovoltaic power generation across the country has exceeded 120 million kilowatts, breaking through 100 million kilowatts for three consecutive years, setting a record high and driving the installed capacity of renewable energy to exceed 1.2 billion kilowatts. With the continuous emergence of new models and new formats such as hydrogen production from renewable energy, my country's renewable energy continues to maintain its leading position in the world.
In 2022, the newly installed capacity of wind power and photovoltaic power generation across the country will exceed 120 million kilowatts, a record high, driving the installed capacity of renewable energy to exceed 1.2 billion kilowatts. The annual power generation of wind power and photovoltaics exceeded 1 trillion kWh for the first time. The new installed capacity of renewable energy in the whole year was 152 million kilowatts, accounting for 76.2% of the country's newly installed power generation capacity, and has become the main body of my country's newly installed power generation capacity. By the end of 2022, the installed capacity of renewable energy will reach 1.213 billion kilowatts, accounting for 47.3% of the total installed capacity of power generation in the country, an increase of 2.5 percentage points from 2021. In 2022, the power generation capacity of renewable energy will reach 2.7 trillion kWh, accounting for 31.6% of the electricity consumption of the whole society, an increase of 1.7 percentage points compared with 2021. The role of renewable energy in ensuring energy supply is becoming more and more obvious.
Significant progress has been made in major renewable energy projects. First, the construction of large-scale wind power photovoltaic bases focusing on deserts, Gobi and desert areas is progressing smoothly. The second is to actively promote the construction of hydropower. All 16 units of Baihetan Hydropower Station have been completed and put into operation. The 6 giant cascade hydropower stations on the main stream of the Yangtze River, Wudongde, Baihetan, Xiluodu, Xiangjiaba, Three Gorges, and Gezhouba form the world's largest "clean energy corridor". Third, the construction of pumped storage has been significantly accelerated. In 2022, there will be 48 newly approved pumped storage projects across the country, with an installed capacity of 68.9 million kilowatts, exceeding the total approved scale during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, and 8.8 million kilowatts of newly put into operation throughout the year, a record high.
The development of renewable energy has a high degree of marketization, with many market entities of various types, sufficient competition, and strong innovation vitality. Technological progress has driven down costs significantly. Onshore 6 MW and offshore 10 MW wind turbines have become mainstream, and the average conversion efficiency of mass-produced monocrystalline silicon cells has reached 23.1%. Photovoltaic sand control, "agriculture + photovoltaic", renewable energy hydrogen production and other new models and new formats are emerging, and distributed development has become the main way of wind power photovoltaic development.
In 2022, my country's renewable energy will continue to maintain its leading position in the world. The center of gravity of the global new energy industry has further shifted to China. Key components such as photovoltaic modules, wind turbines, and gearboxes produced in my country account for 70% of the global market share. At the same time, my country's renewable energy development has made positive contributions to global emission reduction. In 2022, my country's renewable energy power generation is equivalent to reducing domestic carbon dioxide emissions by about 2.26 billion tons, and exported wind power photovoltaic products will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by other countries by about 573 million tons. The total emission reduction is 2.83 billion tons, accounting for about 41% of the global carbon emission reduction converted from renewable energy in the same period. my country has become an active participant and an important contributor to the global response to climate change.
Regarding the key work to be promoted in the field of renewable energy in 2023, Wang Dapeng mentioned that he will further promote the innovation of wind power photovoltaic technology and development model; promote the revision of the Renewable Energy Law around the new situation and new requirements of the development of renewable energy; further improve Renewable energy green power certificate system, establish a renewable energy power consumption guarantee mechanism based on green certificates; focus on clean, low-carbon and efficient use of energy, accelerate the replacement of renewable energy in the fields of industry, transportation, and housing construction; focus on building a new energy system , Vigorously promote major projects of renewable energy.
