Firstly, the situation and challenges of China’s power green development is analyzed. On this basis, the power green development models are categorized into two typical research objects, which are multi-energy synergy mode, represented by integrated energy systems, and multi-energy combination mode with clean energy participation. The key points of the green power development model with the consumption of new energy as the core are reviewed, and then China’s exploration of the power green development system and the latest research results are reviewed.

Academic Editor: Erik Gawel Received: 6 December 2014 / Accepted: 4 February 2015 / Published: 17 February 2015 Abstract: In 2009, the implementation of feed-in tariff (FIT) and attractive public subsidies for onshore wind farms aroused great investment enthusiasm and spurred remarkable development of wind power in China. Meanwhile, rapid learning-by-doing has significantly cut down the cost of wind turbines and the capital cost of wind farms as well. Therefore, it is the right time to examine the appropriateness of the existing FIT policy for wind power in China. In this paper, we employ the analytical framework for levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) to model the generation cost of wind power. Results show that the existing FIT policy is attractive to investors, but serious curtailment and turbine quality issues could make wind power unprofitable. Meanwhile, rapid substantial decreases in the cost of wind power have made it competitive to coal power in 2013, implying that it is possible and necessary to reform the FIT policy for new wind farms.

  • Advancing Clean Energy & Sustainable Energy Infrastructure
    Advancing Clean Energy & Sustainable Energy Infrastructure through PEER A BRIEF ON CHINA’S ENERGY INITIATIVES MAY 2020 BACKGROUND China’s power sector services 1.1 billion consumers, supplying 6,994 TWh from more than 1.91 TW of installed capacity. Coal is the primary source of electricity generation in China. The total installed capacity of renewable energy (including hydropower) in China is more than 728 GW. At the end of 2018, China’s power sector continued to be dominated by large state-owned companies. Source: China Energy Portal The country’s grid is owned and operated primarily by the state-owned State Grid Corporation of China (which supplies power to 88 percent of the country), while China Southern Grid, also state-owned, accounts for most of the remainder. A handful of large state-owned power generation companies are responsible for generating most electricity, including the so-called “big five” – China Datang Corporation, China Guodian Corporation, China Huadian Group, China Huaneng Group, and China Power Investment Corporation – that account for 47 percent of power capacity.

ISBN 978-1-78467-019-1 i Abstract Wind power in China has experienced significant growth since the beginning of this century. Total installed capacity has increased almost 300 fold – from 346 MW in 2000 to 91,413 MW in 2013. This rapid development has had two major drivers: • First, the excellent wind power resource in China, especially in the north of the country, and the increasing competitiveness of wind generation worldwide. • Second, favourable government policies such as: mandatory targets for major power generators in relation to renewable energy; the decentralization of plant approval rights; and feed-in tariffs for wind generation. Along with the development of domestic wind turbine manufacturing capacity, these factors have stimulated the growth of wind power over the past 10 years or so. However, this rapid development has itself created new challenges. In particular, wind power has not been fully integrated into the electricity system as a whole, as the growth of wind generation capacity has not been matched by a corresponding growth in transmission capacity.
