Continuous optimization of energy production structure

The series of reports on the economic and social development achievements of New China in the past 75 years released by the National Bureau of Statistics today shows that China’s energy production capacity has steadily improved and the foundation of supply guarantee has been continuously strengthened over the past 75 years.In 1949,the total production of primary energy in China was only 23.74 million tons of standard coal.By 2023,the total production of primary energy will reach 4.83 billion tons of standard coal,an increase of 202.6 times compared to 1949,with an average annual growth rate of 7.4%.

At the same time,China’s energy production structure continues to optimize,and the low-carbon transformation has achieved significant results.In the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China,raw coal was the most important type of energy supply in China,accounting for 96.3%of the total primary energy production,crude oil only accounted for 0.7%,and hydropower accounted for 3%.In recent years,the driving force of energy production development in China has accelerated from traditional energy to new energy,and the structure has shifted from coal based to diversified and clean.By 2023,the proportion of raw coal in the total primary energy production will decrease to 66.6%;Crude oil accounts for 6.2%;The proportion of clean energy has significantly increased to 27.2%.
