The National Energy Administration told a State Council press briefing that
during the 15th Five-Year Plan period it will accelerate new-energy
infrastructure deployment across three priority areas. First, infrastructure to
accelerate renewables: optimize development models; build clean-energy bases
including wind and solar in the Three North region and integrated
hydro-wind-solar hubs in the southwest; expand green-power direct connections;
develop low‑carbon/zero‑carbon oil and gas fields; and boost integrated
renewable deployment. The NEA said it will also raise grid access and
curtailment resistance and build a safe, reliable, green, resilient, intelligent
and flexible power grid, targeting a >40% increase in source–storage–dispatch
capability. Second, infrastructure driven by new technologies and business
models, including renewable hydrogen, green fuels, EV charging, nuclear
comprehensive utilization, virtual power plants and integrated energy stations.
Third, speed up digitization and smart upgrades of traditional energy
infrastructure.
