Analysis and Investment Consulting Report on China Renewable Energy Market, 2008

　　Renewable energy is permanently utilized energy resource, such as water energy, wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy and ocean energy etc. without resources exhaustion problems. Besides the available installed capacity of water energy and annual power generation rank first in the world, many kinds of renewable resources in China such as solar energy, wind energy and biomass energy etc. are also abundant. Regions with abundant solar energy occupy 2/3 of national territory area, annual radiation quantity is over 6000MJ/m2, solar energy absorbed by surface is approximately equal to 1.7 trillion tce; wind energy is about 3.2 billion kW, primary estimation of availabe for exploration and utilization is 1 billion kW around. Making analogy analysis according to the experience of the countries with rapid wind energy development such as German, Spain, and Danmark etc., China’s wind energy resource quantity available for exploration and utilization may be over 3 billion kW; technically available ocean resource quantity is about 400-500 million kW; prospective reserves of geothermal resources is 135.3 billion tce, proved reserves is 3.16 billion tce; current biomass energy includes: straw, firewood, organic waste and industrial organic waste etc., total resources are to 700 million tce, biomass energy will be doubled on the basis of this level through variety improvement and enlarging planting area. In a word, China’s renewable resources are abundant which have resource conditions and technology potentials available for large exploration, and could provide enough energy for future social and economic development. Much could be done in developing and utilizing renewable resources.
　　At the end of 2006, annual utilization quantity of China renewable energy is totally 200 million tons standard coal, (excluding biomass traditionally utilized), which occupies about 8% of total consumption of China primary energy, increasing by 0.5 percentage point than that in 2005. This is a firm step toward target for renewable energy occupying 10% of national primary energy in 2010.
　　With more and more countries takeing policies and measures to encourage renewable resources, production scale and application range of renewable resources are enlarged constantly. Power generating capacity of global renewable energy was to 0.24 million MW in 2007, increased by 50% than that in 2004.
　　At least more than 60 countries made related policies which promoted the development of sustainable energy in 2007, European Union had established the target for sustainable energy to occupy 20% of all energies which would be reached in 2020, and China had established the target for sustainable energy to occupy 15% of all energies which would be reached in 2020. In 2007, power generating capacity of global grid-connected solar energy increased 52%, power generating capacity of wind energy increased 28%. 50 million families got hot water from the solar water heater installed on the roof, 2.5 million families used solar energy to illuminate, 25 million families utilized biogas to cook and illuminate.
　　Increasing proportions of renewable energy express the information of rising “ green economy”, after the expiration of “Tokyo Protocol” in 2012, new emission reduction mechanism of greenhouse gas will promote the comprehensive development of green economy further.
　　According to China mid-long term energy planning, China could meet the needs of national economy development and people’s living standard improvement for energy basically relying on conventional energy before 2020. With the increasingly outstanding strategy position of renewable energy, several hundred million tons even over billion tons of standard coal energy will be provided by renewable energy till 2020. So the strategy target of China renewable energy will be: improving the energy supply capacity furthest, perfecting energy structure, realizing energy variety and guaranteeing the security of energy supply feasibly.
