《中国农村能源政策与实践》报告发布

Core Insights - The report "China Rural Energy Policy and Practice" highlights the unique characteristics of rural energy development, emphasizing the need to balance four core elements: accessibility, clean low-carbon energy, affordability, and reliability [1] - The report indicates that rural energy consumption will see continuous growth and structural optimization over the next decade, with rural electricity consumption expected to grow at an annual rate higher than the national average [1] - By 2035, the electrification level in rural areas is projected to exceed the national average [1] Group 1 - Rural areas in China possess abundant wind and solar energy resources, with a potential for rooftop photovoltaic technology exceeding 800 million kilowatts [2] - The technical development potential for wind and solar power in China surpasses 10 billion and 45 billion kilowatts respectively, with rural areas accounting for over 90% of land space [2] - Distributed photovoltaic systems are primarily concentrated in residential, commercial, and public building rooftops, with a total technical development potential exceeding 2 billion kilowatts [2] Group 2 - Rural energy carbon peak is expected to occur earlier than the national energy peak due to slower growth in rural energy consumption and faster replacement of renewable energy [2] - The distributed renewable energy sector in rural areas is anticipated to grow rapidly, with an estimated installed capacity of distributed photovoltaic systems reaching between 710 million and 850 million kilowatts by 2030 [2] - The economic viability of electric heating has reached a turning point, with costs approaching those of coal, leading to accelerated replacement of coal [2]
