Anhui Province continues to deepen the elimination of bulk coal burning facilities and promote clean energy replacement. Bulk coal consumption in all fields is showing a downward trend. From 2018 to 2020, a total of 10.99 million tons of bulk coal consumption will be reduced, a decrease of more than 94% from 2017. It has exceeded the mission target of "The consumption of scattered coal in the whole province will be reduced by 90% on the basis of 2017 by 2020" determined by the "Implementation Plan for Bulk Coal Control in Anhui Province (2018-2020)".
Carry out bulk coal management and replacement, and all departments at all levels take active actions. It is understood that in the past three years, the province's ecological environment departments and economic information departments have deepened the comprehensive renovation of industrial coal-fired boilers (kilns), reducing the total consumption of industrial coal by 8.692 million tons, and the built-up area of each city has less than 35 tons/hour. All industrial coal-fired boilers have achieved clean energy substitution. Among them, Wuhu and Anqing have achieved complete "clearing" of small industrial coal-fired boilers within the urban and county built-up areas; ecological environment, housing, urban and rural construction and other departments at all levels promote commercial, Eliminate coal-burning facilities in public institutions and urban residents, accelerate the improvement of urban power and natural gas infrastructure, continue to promote coal-to-gas, coal-to-electricity, and a total of 607,000 tons of scattered coal consumption in commercial and public institutions; agricultural, rural, and energy departments at all levels Strengthen the promotion and use of biomass energy such as biogas and straw solidified fuel in agricultural production and rural life, and reduce the consumption of agricultural and rural scattered coal by 235,000 tons.
On the one hand, it controls loose coal, on the other hand, it continuously expands the proportion of clean energy utilization. Energy departments at all levels in the province have implemented projects to replace coal with gas and electricity with electricity. From 2018 to 2020, the province’s cumulative new energy installed capacity will be 9.35 million kilowatts, including 4.82 million kilowatts of photovoltaic power generation, 1.64 million kilowatts of hydropower, and 195 million kilowatts of wind power. 10,000 kilowatts, biomass power generation is 940,000 kilowatts. As of the end of 2020, the province's installed capacity of renewable energy power generation was 24.69 million kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of 19.6%.
