完善容量电价政策发布碳减排明确成为发展主线

Group 1: Energy Sector Overview - As of the end of 2025, the cumulative installed power generation capacity in the country reached 3.89 billion kilowatts, with a total of 434 GW of new energy capacity added throughout the year, exceeding market expectations. This includes 119 GW from wind power and 315 GW from solar power. Notably, thermal power added 95 GW [1][4]. - In December alone, solar power saw an addition of 41 GW and wind power added 38 GW, significantly higher than the monthly figures from June to November, likely due to the grid connection of large wind and solar projects at year-end [1][4]. Group 2: Storage and Pricing Mechanisms - The National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued a notice to improve the capacity pricing mechanism for power generation, which is expected to accelerate the introduction of independent storage capacity pricing policies at the provincial level. This is anticipated to expand the domestic independent storage market, benefiting storage integrators, upstream component manufacturers, and battery companies [2][3]. - The notice is seen as a significant step in establishing a unified framework for pricing and profitability for gas-fired power plants, which may enhance their construction enthusiasm and profitability [3]. Group 3: Investment Recommendations - Companies to watch in the storage sector include integrators such as Haibo Shichuang, Sunshine Power, and Canadian Solar, as well as battery manufacturers like CATL, EVE Energy, and others [2]. - In the power generation sector, companies with significant natural gas generation capacity such as Huadian International and Guangdong Power Development are recommended, along with those offering a combination of dividend yield and growth potential like Gui Guan Power [4][5]. Group 4: Carbon Market Developments - The "14th Five-Year Plan" emphasizes carbon reduction as a key development line, with stricter carbon emission controls expected. The carbon market is projected to expand, with additional industries being incorporated by 2027 [5][6]. - New methodologies for CCER (China Certified Emission Reduction) are being introduced, expanding the market's support to various sectors, including oil and gas recovery and green hydrogen, which may create new investment opportunities [6].
