Key points of Yangquan Energy Bureau's work in 2022

The overall requirements for the work of Yangquan Energy Bureau in 2022 are: guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, implement the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and all previous plenary sessions of the 19th Central Committee, as well as the spirit of the national and provincial energy work conferences, fully implement the "14510" overall ideas and deployments of the 13th Municipal Party Congress, take "three improvements and four optimizations" as the core, and "1+1+N leading demonstration projects" as the path, always maintain a strong sense of crisis and benchmarking awareness, with a sense of urgency of "cannot wait", a sense of crisis of "cannot be slow", and a sense of responsibility of "cannot sit still", promote high-quality energy development in all directions, and welcome the successful convening of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China with outstanding results.

1. Strengthen the implementation of major decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council. Always maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core in terms of ideology, politics and actions, and implement the major decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council to ensure that orders are obeyed. Always take ensuring national energy security, deepening the comprehensive reform pilot of energy revolution, and implementing the "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" action as the primary tasks of energy work, and do a solid and detailed job, closely focus on the overall situation to perform duties and responsibilities, adhere to the general tone of work of seeking progress while maintaining stability, and base on the responsibilities of energy regulatory departments. Guide local energy regulatory departments and energy industry enterprises in accordance with laws and regulations, focus on preventing and resolving various risks, and provide energy support for the city's economic and social development.

2. Implement the energy development plan and do a good job in key energy projects. Implement the comprehensive development plan for energy in the 14th Five-Year Plan, and orderly promote the implementation of key projects in the plan. Adhere to the clear orientation of "projects are king" and focus on projects, firmly stabilize the basic plate of energy investment, promote the orderly construction of 30 projects with a total investment of 11 billion yuan in the energy field, firmly prevent invalid and inefficient investment, and firmly curb the blind development of "two high" projects. Actively promote the construction of four coal mines in Xishangzhuang, Kunning, Yitong, and Xingfa, and revitalize a number of coal mine resources that have been suspended for a long time, such as Zhongsheng, Fengtai, and Nanwan. Accelerate the construction of Yangquan thermal power project. Vigorously promote the 100,000-kilowatt wind power project of Pingding Phase II of China Energy Construction, the 100,000-kilowatt wind power project of Yuxian Yuedian Phase II, the 100,000-kilowatt photovoltaic project of Jinneng Clean Energy in Yuxian, the 100,000-kilowatt photovoltaic project of Shangshe Town, Yuxian County, and the 100,000-kilowatt photovoltaic project of Three Gorges in Yuxian County, and steadily promote the first phase of the construction project of Senkang New Energy Yangquan City Charging Station, power grid projects and other new infrastructure projects.

3. Promote the industry to empower intelligence and greenness, and improve the level of clean utilization. Solidly promote the green and intelligent upgrading and transformation of coal mines. On the basis of completing 66 intelligent mining and excavation working faces last year, 25 more intelligent working faces will be built. Promote the key links of robot inspection and underground application of 5G communication technology. Promote the successful experience of green mining without coal pillars in Xinjing Mine, continue to promote the municipal pilot of continuous mining and continuous filling in Dongping Coal Mine in Yu County, carry out the "EQS3000 full-section tunnel boring machine (shield machine) supporting tunnel filling process" of Huayang No. 1 Mine and the pilot of unusable waste rock returning to the well for filling in Weidong Coal Industry, and expand the pilot of small coal pillar mining in Hexie, Queen, Baoan and other coal mines. Promote the overall upgrading of the city's coal washing and selection industry, and force a number of backward production capacity to be eliminated and transformed. Efforts should be made to increase the proportion of advanced coal production capacity, and the proportion of advanced production capacity in the city should be stabilized at more than 80%. Promote the reduction and reorganization of Dong'an and Jinheng Coal Industry in Yu County, and properly handle the closure and exit of resource-depleted mines such as Yangquan, Yutai and Jiujie in accordance with relevant standards.

4. Promote the reform of the power system and build a new power system. Seize the policy opportunities of the province's "upgrading large and suppressing small" and "equal capacity and reducing coal consumption", and focus on promoting the construction of the 2×1 million kilowatt "upgrading large and suppressing small" project of Yangguang Power Plant.
