Recycling PV and Floating Wind Demos the Key 14th FYP Tasks –China Clean Energy Syndicate

23 July 2021 / Syndicate

Momentum for offshore wind development seems to continue, although we have stepped into the zero-subsidy era. The annual Offshore Wind Summit and Guangxi’s ambitious wind development plan (18GW) are undoubtedly the highlights of last week.

Other noteworthy updates of China’s clean energy market in our view:

  • Net Zero Investment: Beijing released the Circular Economy 14th Five-Year Plan (14th FYP); recycling of photovoltaic and power batteries are heavily under-invest.
  • Wind: NEA official said the “far and deep sea” (floating) offshore wind demos are the emphasis, while Guangxi Province unleashes +8GW OW projects
  • Hydrogen: a review of China’s refuelling station figure suggest that the country is just a step away from being at the global top. In June, the FCV sale record finally bounced.
  • Energy Storage: China’s first 10 GW renewable+storage project kicks off; China Huaneng said it would focus on, among others–CCUS.

“First-of-its-Kind” Energy Storage Tech Fest –China Clean Energy Syndicate

23 July 2021 / Syndicate

Three “first-of-this-kind” energy storage projects made breakthroughs last week.

Hydrogen Power-to-Gas: on hydrogen storage, a Zhejiang University research team completed a test for ocean energy power-to-gas project;

Electrochemical Storage: China Three Gorges’ storage verification project that consists of 8 types of storage technologies (NaS, Lithion-ion, VRB, supercapacitor, etc.) have been unveiled.

Mechanical Storage: Henan is planning to build the world’s largest salt cavern compressed air project of 100MW.

Besides different exiting storage project announcements. Other critical updates include:

RE Regulation: the “1+N” decarbonized policy package and MIIT’s standardization effort for the fuel cell vehicle industry

Market: the ranking of China’s Top-10 Turbine OEMs seem to be changing in the first half of this year

Be Aware of the Major Energy Storage Policy Changes –China Clean Energy Syndicate

23 July 2021 / Syndicate

A major policy change this week is Beijing’s suspension, for now, energy storage new-build plant based on recycled EV batteries. The suspension is seen as Beijing’s reaction towards the BESS station explosion a month ago. (See China Clean Energy Syndicate Issue 59, April 19)

However, we will like to point out that there are several policy shakeups announced in the past months regarding energy storage pricing, safety operation and grid access. The active shakeup indicates Beijing’s intention to promote the area. Be aware.

Other highlights of the Chinese clean energy market last week include:

  • Green Bonds: China Development Bank set aside ¥500 b in loans to finance renewable and hydrogen, while PBoC said it needs to be much more green loan allocated to support clean energy investment.
  • Hydrogen: series of major cooperation deals were announced this week including Sinopec and Trina Solar in terms of PV-to-Gas; meanwhile, the first regional FC ship targets is unleashed.

“RE Plus” Investment Boom–China Clean Energy Syndicate

29 June 2021 / Syndicate

Below are 8 critical updates of what happened in the Chinese clean energy policymaking and market progress last week. Some of the highlights include:

  • RE Regulation: NDRC’s new policy for the government offices may lead to a distributed solar construction boom; Qinghai announced +46GW “renewable hybrid” and “renewable plus storage” projects, setting the tone for the next round of RE+ investment boom in China.
  • Hydrogen: two signals suggest that Beijing could soon make the final confirmation of the first cities selected for the FCV application demonstration, as Shanghai concluded a 7-party city alliance cooperation agreement and MIIT issued an FCV testing standard.
  • Energy Storage: Guangdong confirmed to add 2GW new storage capacity in 14th FYP, and Zhejiang plans 1GW. The provincial plans pave the way for the storage investment scene.

“RE Plus” Investment Boom–China Clean Energy Syndicate

New Threats to RE Investment–China Clean Energy Syndicate

29 June 2021 / Syndicate

Several first-of-this-kind renewable, hydrogen and storage projects were announced to reach critical milestones. Our picks of what happened in the China clean energy market last week include: 

  • RE Regulation: a critical renewable pricing policy is unleashed by NDRC, possibly putting assault to the injures of China’s renewable developers. The “833” policy marks the renewable market entering a new phase, in our view.
  • Policy & Energy Storage: meanwhile, Hubei province announced a new renewable policy that set precedence. The policy publically announced to exchange (renewable project) resource for (manufacturing) investment–noteworthy.
  • Hydrogen: solar PV company LONGi continues its aggressive approach investing in green hydrogen, with another project launched; State Grid and Envision are working towards an interesting fuel cell CHP project for a fruit farm in Zhejiang;
