On April 29, the National Energy Administration held an online press conference in the second quarter to release the energy situation in the first quarter of 2022, the grid connected operation of renewable energy and the development of coalbed methane, and interpret the administrative measures for power reliability (Provisional).
Dong Wancheng, deputy director of the development planning department, said that the growth rate of energy consumption was high before and slow after. From January to February, the electricity consumption, natural gas consumption and coal consumption of the whole society increased by 5.8%, 7.1% and 1.9% respectively year-on-year. In March, the growth rate of energy consumption dropped slightly. The power consumption, natural gas consumption and coal consumption of the whole society increased by 3.5%, 1.9% and 3.5% respectively year-on-year.
The energy industry went all out to increase production and supply. In the first three months, crude oil production increased by 4.4% year-on-year; The output of raw coal increased by 10.3% year-on-year on the basis of the high base growth of 16% in the same period last year; Natural gas production increased by 6.6% year-on-year; Hydropower and nuclear power generation increased by 12.7% and 6.9% year-on-year respectively, 9.6 and 3.8 percentage points higher than the year-on-year growth of national power generation. In addition, 492000 charging infrastructures were added in the first three months, about 4.6 times that of the same period last year.
This year, the planned investment in key energy projects increased by 10.3% year-on-year. The construction of the first batch of large-scale wind power photovoltaic base projects in desert Gobi desert areas was accelerated, driving the planned investment in Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) power generation and onshore wind power to increase by 202.6% and 13.3% year-on-year. The investment in pumped storage and nuclear power continued to improve, and the planned investment increased by 31% and 20.5% respectively year-on-year. The planned investment in oil and gas storage and transportation facilities increased by 51.5% year-on-year. The planned investment in the main grid of the power grid is basically the same as last year.
