Recently, the research report on the China Smart Energy Network, which has received much attention from the industry, has been reviewed by domestic and foreign experts. It is understood that once the smart energy network can be promoted nationwide, it can save at least 400 million tons of standard coal annually, which is expected to put China's energy resources. The efficiency is increased by 15%. It will create considerable energy-saving emission reduction space and economic value, and will urge the rapid growth of many industries in China.

After more than half a year, the research on China's smart energy network that has caught the eye of all parties has finally made critical progress.

The reporter recently learned from the China International Economic Exchange Center (hereinafter referred to as the “National Economics Center”) smart energy network research group that Zheng Xinli was the general advisor and Wu Jiandong was the leader, covering the China Electric Power Engineering Consultancy Company, the Institute of Electronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, etc. The main topic of participation of famous domestic and foreign organizations has formed a preliminary draft of the research report. On July 15, the first draft of the report was approved by experts. In recent days, the Center for International Economics held an outcome meeting in Beijing to publicize the smart energy network for the first time in the industry at home and abroad. The research results have been fully affirmed. This conference has also been hailed as the first international "on the history of smart energy network exchange."

A high-level person at the National Economic Research Center pointed out that the construction of smart energy grid will create huge energy-saving emission reduction space and economic value, and will drive the explosive growth of many industries in China. In the future, once the plan is promoted nationwide, it will save about every year. At least 400 million tons of standard coal will increase China's energy efficiency by at least 15%.

Smart Energy Network project passed expert review

The topic of "China's smart energy network development model and implementation plan" is one of the major issues of the "12th Five-Year Plan" energy plan commissioned by the Development and Planning Department of the National Energy Administration commissioned by the National Economic Research Center. This project was built on the basis of China's energy expert Wu Jiandong for the first time in the world. The proposed application-based energy theory based on an integrated network framework clarifies the concepts, four major systems, eight sub-networks, ten-element process models, and the transformation and application of smart energy networks.

This topic first proposed the concept of a broad and narrow sense smart energy network. The former refers to the transformation of energy used by humans into higher efficiency, more intelligent deployment, cleaner and more secure architecture, interactive capabilities, and operating models. The latter includes Intelligent oil and gas network, intelligent power network, intelligent water network, intelligent heating network, intelligent building, intelligent transportation, intelligent industrial management and intelligent interactive architecture management. These eight parts will influence each other and will form an intelligent and interactive, brand-new energy industry system. .

In addition, the ten process elements of the smart energy network include production, transportation, distribution, market optimization, operations, services, customers, long-term energy price management and supervision, carbon rights management and optimized interaction between different energy grids. It has important practical value and is highly recognized by international organizations such as the International Smart Grid Alliance. Authoritative experts even believe that it may replace the existing seven-element process of the smart grid. Currently, the research group has completed the first international Smart energy network flow chart.

At the expert review meeting on July 15th, the Development and Planning Department of the National Energy Administration, as the representative of the entrusting party, invited the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the China Energy Research Association, the National Energy Experts Advisory Committee, the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, and the China Electric Power Enterprise Association. The relevant experts of the organization form a review committee to review the issues.

An expert who participated in the review said that the project reflected the direction of the national energy strategic planning requirements and had a more innovative approach to the existing strong USG concepts of the US Department of Energy, the American Academy of Electric Power, the European Technical Forum, and the National Grid of China. To promote beyond the intelligentization of a single power system network, to establish the intelligence of the energy system in a wider range of energy areas. As the first country to propose this concept, China should enjoy this area. The income of important intellectual property.

At the results meeting held in Beijing on August 5th, China's research results on the smart energy network were made public for the first time in the overseas energy sector and were also highly recognized.

International standard formulation has been put on the agenda

According to other experts, the most important contribution of the smart energy network is that it is a major theoretical innovation for the human energy system, and can guide humans in this energy structure evolution in the most efficient way.

Cui Songyue, deputy director of the Economic Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, former chairman of the China Electricity Regulatory Commission and chairman of the China Energy Research Association, said at the meeting that there are two major theoretical systems for resolving global energy strategic transformations. One is a single-shelf smart grid. The development plan, this program focuses on the intelligent reform based on the power system; the second is the development plan of the intelligent energy network proposed by Prof. Wu Jiandong's integrated network shelf. This program believes that different energy grids need to achieve a more efficient configuration and Interacting to realize energy intelligence in sub-sector and multi-industry. "Experience tells me that the promotion of smart energy grid construction according to the integrated grid theory may have better results, and it can also enable the central government to promote industrialization through informationization." The strategy of taking a new road to industrialization has been implemented," said Chai Songyue.

Wu Jiandong believes that this new theory will enable structural innovation from a bureaucratic energy structure to multiple interactive energy structures. Compared with the traditional energy structure, the new energy structure contains four parallel industrial systems, namely, intelligence. Concentrated layered energy production and delivery systems, advanced energy storage systems, intelligent terminal energy systems, intelligent energy service systems.

Obviously, these four major industrial systems contain considerable opportunities for industrial growth, which will be demonstrated one by one in the process of promoting smart energy networks in China in the future. The four major industrial systems are in terms of the third energy transformation that is ready to emerge. The proposal is also a primary energy theory, the reform of the system.

It is worth noting that Guido Bartels of the International Smart Grid Alliance (GAG) also revealed at the meeting that the development of the universal international smart energy network standard has been put on the agenda. Wu Jiandong, who has been appointed as the council member of the International Smart Grid Alliance, has been on the agenda. Has been given the task of organizational standards development.

It is reported that the International Smart Grid Alliance and the Global Smart Grid Consortium have reached a consensus that the study of smart energy network standards can promote global collaborative innovation in smart energy networks, increase global energy efficiency, and promote the exchange of experience among international advanced cities. To contribute to the sustainable development of the world economy.

Not only that, the above parties believe that the universal international smart energy network standard will enhance the common sense of humanity in the development of clean energy and build a more stable operational structure for the world's new energy transformation.

Intelligent power and smart oil and gas networks will become "double engines"

The reporter then learned from the research team that the smart energy network theory has ten major applications for change, the first of which is to make smart power and intelligent oil and gas networks a common engine for China's development of smart energy networks.

According to Wu Jiandong, China currently has three main ways to promote the construction of smart energy networks: first, to directly promote the construction of eight components of the smart energy network; second, to promote the construction of smart energy-based energy networks; and third, to promote the use of electricity and Gas-based intelligent network construction. “In terms of energy architecture, we must at least use smart power and gas networks as a breakthrough. This is mainly because electricity and gas are two energy networks with high pressure, medium pressure, and low pressure. If the smart power system is promoted alone, it will increase the cost of transformation. Therefore, I believe that smart power and intelligent oil and gas network is the common engine of China's development of smart energy network." Wu Jiandong said.

He believes that there are several advantages to using gas networks as a breakthrough: Gas network assets are generally controlled by local governments, and reforms centered on cities and towns can be formed; gas networks have a basis for interaction with other networks; the latest technology has made gas networks also Can be used as the main supplier of terminal energy, that is, direct use of gas-fired power generation to solve the problem of terminal electricity; China's coal has a large number of conditions for vaporization; gas can be used as the ideal dynamic support for new energy vehicles.

At the same time, Wu Jiandong pointed out that the development of advanced energy storage system construction will be the lifeblood of China's energy efficiency.

From the analysis of China's energy production and consumption structure, in the next five years, networked energy storage facilities can directly store 10% of China’s energy consumption, and 20% of China’s energy resources can be included in buffer storage. In the next 10 years, networked energy storage facilities can Directly store 10% of China’s energy consumption through large-capacity reserves, and 30% of China’s energy can be included in buffer storage. “If China's decentralized and isolated islands of energy storage are linked and optimized, China’s energy efficiency can be improved by at least 8 % If China promotes a more advanced form of energy storage network operation, China's energy efficiency can be increased by 10%, equivalent to a saving of 300 million tons of standard coal in 2011. If this leads to the establishment of a global network of energy storage systems, it is equivalent to stimulating local primary energy sources. Industry **, create an innovative new energy industry." Wu Jiandong said.

It is reported that China's establishment of energy storage industry includes: direct energy storage; buffer system energy storage; intelligent energy storage to achieve different energy storage; the establishment of a public virtual energy storage grid; to promote the construction of a city-based energy storage system; Market-oriented energy storage trading market construction.

In addition, Wu Jiandong also proposed that one-third of China’s industrial water use can come from desalination of seawater, smart building is the core of building a smart terminal network, cities are breakthroughs in the construction of smart energy networks, and marketization is a powerful driver for the construction of smart energy networks. Several major innovations.

Zheng Xinli, executive vice chairman of the National Economic Center, said at the meeting that if the smart energy network can increase energy efficiency by at least 15%, in terms of total energy consumption in China in 2009, the country can save at least 400 million tons of standard coal annually. At the same time, it will create huge energy saving and emission reduction space and economic value; at the same time, the development of smart energy network can greatly increase the efficiency of different energy networks, leading the transformation and upgrading of traditional Internet industries, including advanced communications, sensing and storage. Energy, mass data optimization management and intelligent control technology development.
