    In the first three quarters of 2022, energy supply and demand were generally stable, energy consumption maintained a growth trend, energy supply and demand remained generally stable, energy production continued to reduce carbon emissions and improve efficiency, and the development of renewable energy continued to improve
    .
    This is the information
    that the reporter recently learned from the fourth quarter online press conference held by the National Energy Administration.


    Energy consumption continues to grow
    .
    With the effectiveness of the package of policies and measures to stabilize the economy, energy consumption has rebounded
    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 over the second quarter; the increase in thermal coal demand drove the rapid growth of coal consumption; the consumption of natural gas and steam kerosene has not yet recovered to the level of the same period last year, but the decline has narrowed; Infrastructure investment continued to make efforts and freight logistics recovered to support stable growth in diesel consumption
    .


    Energy supply and demand remained generally stable
    .
    Give full play to the role of coal and coal power as a back-up guarantee, continue to release advanced coal production capacity, and strengthen production scheduling
    in key coal-producing areas and enterprises.
    In the first three quarters, the average daily output of raw coal remained above 12 million tons, an increase of 11.
    2%
    year-on-year.
    Since September, the coal storage of power plants nationwide has remained above
    170 million tons.
    Make every effort to promote the increase of oil and gas reserves and production, urge supply enterprises and local governments to sign gas supply contracts in an all-round way, and promote the "exhaustion of reserves"
    of gas storage facilities.
    In the first three quarters, crude oil and natural gas production increased by 3.
    0% and 5.
    4% respectively year-on-year
    .
    At present, the heating season gas contract has been basically implemented, and the gas injection progress of the underground gas storage is well
    implemented.


    Strong and effective stabilization of energy prices
    .
    In the face of the continuous high volatility of global energy prices, the energy industry has made timely judgments and advanced plans to effectively respond to energy market fluctuations
    .
    Reduce natural gas procurement costs and reasonably guide natural gas consumption
    .
    Central enterprises have given full play to the advantages of "resource pool", and the proportion of stable-price resources such as domestic gas, imported pipeline gas, imported LNG and long-term association gas has increased
    .
    The average gas supply price of pipeline gas in major gas supply enterprises 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 the performance of medium- and long-term thermal coal contracts, and ensure that the medium- and long-term trading prices of coal operate within a reasonable range


    The green and low-carbon transformation has been steadily advancing, and energy production has continued to reduce carbon emissions and improve efficiency
    .
    In the first three quarters, the installed capacity of non-fossil energy power generation was about 94 million kilowatts, 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 are starting one after another, and the third batch of project review
    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-oriented development financial tools, 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
    over the growth rate in the first half of the year.


    The development of renewable energy continues to improve
    .
    The installed capacity of renewable energy has steadily expanded, the power generation has grown steadily, and the high utilization level
    has been maintained.
    In the first three quarters, China's renewable energy installed capacity was 90.
    36 million kilowatts, accounting for 78.
    8%
    of the country's new power generation capacity.
    The national renewable energy power generation reached 1.
    94 trillion kilowatt hours, and the utilization rate of hydroenergy in major river basins was about 98.
    6%, an increase of 1.
    1 percentage points over the same period of the previous year; the average utilization rate of wind power was 96.
    5%, down 0.
    5 percentage points from the same period of the previous year; the average utilization rate of photovoltaic power generation was 98.
    2%, an increase of 0.
    2 percentage points
    over the same period of the previous year.


    Liu Tao, deputy director of the Coal Department of the National Energy Administration, said that since the beginning of this year, the National Energy Administration has optimized and adjusted the coal mine energy replacement policy, accelerated the implementation of the "14th Five-Year Plan" coal plan, and ensured the safe and stable supply
    of coal.


    First, coal production has grown
    rapidly.
    From January to September, the coal output of enterprises above designated size in the country was 3.
    32 billion tons, an increase of 11.
    2%
    year-on-year.
    From the perspective of key coal-producing areas, Jin-Shaanxi-Mengxin coal output accounts for 80.
    9% of the country, contributing 90.
    5% to output growth, giving full play to the role of
    major coal-producing provinces.
    Second, the construction
    of advanced coal mine production capacity has been accelerated.
    A total of 14 coal mine projects have been approved (including adjustment of construction scale), with a new production capacity of more than 62 million tons/year, and the joint trial operation of coal mines with a capacity of about 90 million tons/year has been promoted, further consolidating the production capacity foundation
    for increasing coal production and ensuring supply.
    Third, the coal storage of power plants has increased
    significantly.
    Since September, the coal storage of the national unified power plant has remained above 170 million tons, and the supply situation of thermal coal has continued to improve, effectively ensuring the demand
    for coal for power generation and heating.
    Fourth, coal prices have generally remained stable
    .
    In October, the annual long-term price of 5500 kcal thermal coal in Qinhuangdao was 719 yuan / ton, down 6 yuan / ton from the beginning of the year, and 51 yuan / ton lower than the maximum limit price of 770 yuan / ton, stabilizing the basic plate of thermal coal supply
    .
    The comprehensive price of coal in power plants is significantly lower than the international level, which has laid a good foundation
    for ensuring people's livelihood and energy use.
