Hanyuan: China's Midwest can vigorously develop solar photovoltaic power station

China Economic network Beijing March 11 News CPPCC Standing Committee Hanyuan, Chairman of the board, said in an interview with the network reporter, from the 50 's Shanxi coal base, to the 670 's daqing, Shengli oilfield oil base, and then to the 90 to the Three Gorges Project as the representative of the Western hydropower base, the changes in the past decades, Fully demonstrated the energy structure of our country continuously optimizes, the energy demand expands unceasingly, the energy problem increasingly outstanding development process. Vigorously develop new energy, has become the commanding heights of the global economic development in the 21st century, the real development of new energy industry and the release of power, China's energy security issues will have a bright future, which requires China to dare to break the old ideas on the issue of new energy development, extraordinary strides forward, especially in China, the West region,　　With a wide range of deserts, grasslands, gobi, solar energy resources are very rich, can vigorously develop solar photovoltaic power plants, building new energy base, so as to support the rapid development of our economy in the next 30 years. Hanyuan said that in the past 30 years, along with the rapid development of China's economy, the total energy consumption equivalent to 41.2 billion tons of coal, an annual increase of 5.5%, and the first 8 years of the new century, China's energy consumption growth rate of more than 9.1%. Every year, China accounts for nearly three-fourths of the new global energy. 2009 China's energy consumption amounted to 3 billion tons coal. From the structure of energy consumption, there is no fundamental change in the pattern of China's over-reliance on fossil energy. In 2009, China became a net coal importer for the first time, and the total amount of coal consumption reached 3 billion tons, of which more than 50% were used to generate electricity. As the energy structure accounted for 18%, the fastest growing oil, according to the General administration of Customs Data, 2009 China's imports of crude oil 203.8 million tons, import dependence reached 52%.　　In the next 15-20 years, China's total oil consumption will also reach the current two to three times times. Hanyuan points out that China and the West region, although facing a lot of development bottlenecks, but it has the eastern and coastal areas do not have the unique advantages, especially in the western region, a vast, sparsely populated, light time, solar radiation is strong, solar energy resources are very rich, every square meters of solar energy annual radiation amount of 3350-8400 trillion kj The average of 5860 trillion kj (equivalent to 199kg standard coal), the annual China's land surface absorption of solar energy, about the equivalent of 2.4 trillion tons of coal energy, equivalent to 2009 national total energy consumption of 3 billion tons coal 800 times times. Western Tibet is China's most abundant solar energy resources, the annual maximum of 2,333-kilowatt hours/square meters (daily radiation volume of 6.4 kwh/square meters), ranked second in the world, after the African Sahara. China's western region of the existing desertification land area of more than 1 million square kilometers, and is expanding the trend of the year, mainly distributed in the northwest and southwest of the abundant solar resources, assuming that the 1% of these desertification land, used to install grid-connected photovoltaic power generation system, according to the current more conservative 100wp/m2 technical level calculation, Up to 1 Billion-kilowatt installed Capacity, according to the Ministry of Information, the 2009 national total installed capacity of electricity only 874 million kilowatts.　　To the Liangshan in western Sichuan Province, Ganzi, Aba "three states" as an example, the use of 1% of the grassland in the region can achieve 276.816 billion degrees of power generation, if combined with the central and western regions of Qinghai, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang and other provinces of the vast grasslands, Gobi region, generating capacity can be the last order of magnitude. Hanyuan that the solar photovoltaic industry is a large market, the industrial radiation surface wide, the effect of the sunrise industry obvious. Taking full advantage of the abundant solar energy resources of the desert and grassland in the Midwest of China, it is necessary for the economic development in the West region such as Sichuan, Qinghai, Gansu, Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang to build a clean energy base in China and the West region. The enormous economic benefits brought by industrial development are of great significance to the harmony and stability of the western region, the implementation of national policies, the long-term stability of the local residents, the environmental governance and soil and water conservation, the increase of people's wealth, the promotion of China's economic development and the transformation of the mode of growth. 58%
