Core Viewpoint - The Shanghai Municipal Development and Reform Commission has announced the mechanism electricity price for the 2025 new energy incremental projects at 0.4155 yuan per kilowatt-hour, reaching the bidding cap set at 0.42 yuan per kilowatt-hour, aligning with previous pricing for existing projects and local coal benchmark prices [1][6]. Bidding Results - A total of 2,039 projects were selected in the bidding for the 2025 new energy incremental projects, with a total mechanism electricity volume of approximately 540 million kilowatt-hours [2][3]. Project Composition - The majority of selected projects are distributed photovoltaic projects, with only 10 centralized photovoltaic and 2 onshore wind projects included, reflecting Shanghai's unique characteristics as a densely populated city with limited land resources [3][11]. Price Benchmark - The announced price of 0.4155 yuan per kilowatt-hour is the highest among provinces that have released results, marking a new high for national mechanism electricity prices. This price is significantly higher than those in other regions, with a difference of 0.2201 yuan per kilowatt-hour compared to Gansu [6][7]. Policy Background - This bidding process is part of the national reform for market-oriented pricing of new energy electricity, aimed at promoting high-quality development in the sector. Shanghai has established a "sustainable development price settlement mechanism" for new energy projects [8][12]. Regional Differentiation - Shanghai's high electricity price is attributed to its unique market conditions, including a relatively loose supply of mechanism electricity and a limited number of qualifying projects, leading to less competition [9][10]. Industry Impact - The price of 0.4155 yuan per kilowatt-hour provides a clear and attractive return benchmark for new energy projects, particularly distributed photovoltaic projects, encouraging further investment in Shanghai's new energy sector [11][12].
