Attending today’s press conference are Mr. Dong Wancheng, deputy director of the Development Planning Department of the National Energy Administration, Mr. Xu Jilin, deputy director of the Energy Conservation and Technology Equipment Department, Mr. Liu Tao, deputy director of the Coal Department, and Mr. Wang Dapeng, deputy director of the New Energy and Renewable Energy Department. , I am Liang Changxin, director of the General Affairs Department and spokesperson. Please introduce the relevant situation to the directors.
Introduce the relevant situation
●Dong Wancheng, deputy director of the Development and Planning Department:
Energy supply and demand are generally stable in the first three quarters of 2022
Since the beginning of this year, in the face of the complex and severe external environment and changes in the situation, the energy industry has thoroughly implemented the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, properly responded to the impact of the epidemic and changes in the international energy market, and took various measures to ensure supply and price stability. The overall situation of energy supply and demand Stable and generally stable prices play an important role in economic recovery.
1. The policy of stabilizing growth continues to exert force, and energy consumption maintains a growth trend
With the effectiveness of the package of policy measures to stabilize the economy, the energy consumption will rebound rapidly. In the third quarter, the electricity consumption of the whole society increased by 6.1% year-on-year, an increase of 5.3 percentage points compared with the second quarter; the increase in demand for electricity and coal drove the rapid growth of coal consumption; the consumption of natural gas, gasoline and kerosene has not yet returned to the level of the same period last year, but the decline has been reduced Narrow; infrastructure investment continues to increase, and the recovery of freight logistics supports the steady growth of diesel consumption.
2. Efforts should be made to enhance supply capacity and flexibility, and energy supply and demand will remain generally stable
Give full play to the role of coal, coal and electricity as a bottom-line guarantee, continue to release advanced coal production capacity, and strengthen production scheduling in key coal-producing regions and enterprises. In the first three quarters, the average daily output of raw coal remained above 12 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 11.2%. Since September, coal storage in power plants nationwide has remained above 170 million tons. Fully promote the increase of oil and gas storage and production, urge supply companies and local governments to sign gas supply contracts in an all-round way, and promote gas storage facilities to “storage as much as possible”. In the first three quarters, the output of crude oil and natural gas increased by 3.0% and 5.4% year-on-year respectively. At present, the gas use contract in the heating season has been basically implemented, and the gas injection progress of the underground gas storage is well implemented.
3. Effectively stabilize energy prices and help curb inflation input
In the face of continuous high and volatile global energy prices, the energy industry conducts timely research and judgment and plans ahead of time to effectively respond to fluctuations in the energy market. Reduce the cost of natural gas procurement and rationally guide natural gas consumption. Central enterprises take advantage of the “resource pool”, and the proportion of stable price resources such as domestic gas, imported pipeline gas, and imported LNG long-term contracted gas has increased. The average price of pipeline gas supplied by major gas supply companies is mostly 2-3 yuan per cubic meter, and the price of some peak incremental gas sources is also controlled at 4-5 yuan per cubic meter, which is far lower than the international market price. Strengthen the supervision of medium and long-term contract performance of thermal coal to ensure that the medium and long-term transaction price of coal operates within a reasonable range.
4. Green and low-carbon transformation is steadily advancing, and energy production continues to reduce carbon and improve efficiency
In the first three quarters, about 94 million kilowatts of new non-fossil energy power generation installed capacity was added, accounting for 82% of the total new installed capacity. The first batch of large-scale wind power photovoltaic bases have all started construction, the second batch of projects is being started one after another, and the review of the third batch of projects is currently being accelerated. The cumulative installed capacity of pumped storage power stations reached 43.6 million kilowatts. Give full play to the role of policy development financial instruments, and accelerate the release of investment in energy projects. In the first eight months of this year, the investment in key projects in the national energy field was 1,229.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16.7%, an increase of 0.8 percentage points from the growth rate in the first half of the year.
