On the path of global energy upgrading and transformation, clean energy represented by biomass energy has received extensive attention. As a large agricultural country, China has abundant reserves of biomass energy resources. Under the development of the "double carbon" strategy, the promotion of biomass energy utilization is of great significance for China's energy transformation and resource recycling. Since 2022, the state has issued a series of policies to support the development of biomass energy industry. In terms of industrial policies, the country proposes to accelerate the utilization of rural biomass energy to help rural revitalization; Encourage biomass power generation projects, expand the income channels of bio intelligent power generation projects, promote the diversified utilization of biomass energy, and develop biomass clean heating according to local conditions. The development direction and goals in the next five years are proposed in the development plan.
On March 15, 2023, the National Energy Administration, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Areas, and the National Bureau of Rural Revitalization issued the Notice on Organizing the Construction of Pilot Counties for Rural Energy Revolution, which mentioned promoting the rural energy supply revolution, establishing a diversified energy supply system for renewable energy, and accelerating the development of renewable energy and non electricity. Promote biomass clean heating according to local conditions. The biomass clean heating in plain areas of pilot counties in key areas of national air pollution prevention and control should adopt centralized heating modes such as cogeneration and large biomass boilers. Build distributed renewable rural energy stations such as biomass "collection, storage and transportation", briquette fuel processing, biomass boilers and geothermal heating.
On April 1, 2023, the National Standards Commission, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other eleven departments issued the Guidelines for the Construction of Carbon Peak Carbon Neutralization Standard System, which mentioned that in the field of biomass energy, it was important to develop and revise domestic waste incineration power generation, agricultural and forestry biomass thermoelectric power, biomass clean heating, biological natural gas (biogas), biomass pyrolysis and gasification Standards for raw material quality control, key technologies and equipment, product quality grading, etc. of biomass liquid fuel and biomass briquette fuel.
On April 23, 2023, the National Energy Administration issued the Key Points of the National Energy Administration's Work on Targeted Assistance and Counterpart Support for Rural Revitalization in 2023, which proposed to continue to promote the construction of biomass heating projects. We will continue to promote Tongwei to build biomass heating projects in central villages rich in biomass resources and relocation sites for poverty alleviation, and explore new models for the development and utilization of biomass resources.
On July 29, 2023, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the National Standardization Administration Commission and the Ministry of Housing and Urban Rural Development jointly issued the Action Plan for Standardization of Rural Revitalization, which proposed to strengthen the monitoring and protection of agricultural ecological environment, rural renewable energy, rural biogas engineering standards, and improve dry farming, agricultural water-saving technology and other standards. Formulate quality standards for biomass briquette fuel. We will improve the standards system for rural power grids, gas and clean energy, and civil stoves.
On November 29, 2023, the National Development and Reform Commission and other five departments issued the Action Plan for Green, Low Carbon and High Quality Development of Boilers, which mentioned that: actively promote the technological transformation of large-scale coal-fired power generation boilers burning agricultural and forestry wastes and other coupled biomass combustion. Biomass boilers should be equipped with efficient dust removal facilities. If the nitrogen oxide emission concentration is difficult to reach the standard stably, denitration facilities should be equipped. It is prohibited to mix coal, garbage and other materials. Formulate and improve the standards for biomass boilers, and clarify the combustion control requirements and the initial emission concentration limits of nitrogen oxides. Formulate mandatory national standards for the quality of biomass briquette fuel products. Strengthen the connection and mutual recognition between China's boiler energy efficiency, carbon emission and other standards and relevant international standards.
