The coal chemical industry takes developing such industrial chains as coal to olefin, acetic acid, etc. as the main parts, intending to increase and become international and modern. China s largest Binchang Buddhist Temple Power Plant with 24 500 kilowatts low-concentration gas, Tongchuan Xiashijie 8 500 kilowatt power plant, Chenjiashan 3,000 kilowatt power plant and Haicheng 2,500 kilowatt gas fired power plant have been established, and Hancheng minefield coal bed gas ground extraction and exploitation projects have been started in a comprehensive way.
In 2009, the amount of mine gas and coal bed gas extraction reached 183 million cubic meters, and exploitation amount stood at 9.95 million cubic meters.
The scientific development level has been improved comprehensively. The newly established large-scale coal comprehensive mechanization reached 100%, 6 million tons/year national comprehensive complete equipment has been tested successfully in Huangling No.2 Coal Mine, and energy equipment industry has witnessed healthy and orderly development.
The unit capacity of all the newly established conventional power plants exceeded 600,000 kilowatts, all of which adopted large capacity, high parameter and supercritical generating units, and established China s first coal-electricity integrated complex project of Guohua Electrical Power in Jinjie in real terms; all the heat-engine plants at the northern side of Qinling Mountains adopted air cooling technology, with desulfurization and dust removing plants installed synchronously, the capacity of desulfurization units reached 14.
47 million kilowatts, accounting for 69% of thermal power. All the newly established coal-to-methanol single equipment exceeded 600,000 tons/year, and most of them adopted the world advanced technologies such as gasification, synthesis, etc. The international advanced technologies such as water setting for petroleum engineering, carbon dioxide drive, geologic sequestration, etc.
have been promoted and applied, and such key technologies as DM-TO, synthesize acetic anhydride and acetic acid owing intellectual property rights have made a breakthrough progress. The coal percent conversion reached 30%, petroleum transformation ratio reached 35%, and gas percent conversion reached 10%.
The average coal extraction rate has been increased to 65% in 2009 from around 50% in 2005, the recovery ratio of petroleum has been increased to 30% from 18%, transportation ratio of crude oil and petroleum products has been increased to 75% from 30%, and mortality rate of one million tons of coal has decreased to 0.
121 from 1.998. The institutes of scientific research such as Institute of Recycling Economy Engineering, Energy Chemical Institute, etc., have been established, providing technical support and talent guarantee for energy chemical development.
New energy and energy equipment manufacturing industry has witnessed comprehensive and accelerated development. The Several Opinions on Further Accelerating New Energy Development and Shaanxi New Energy Development Planning has been formulated and implemented. Vigorously implement 100 megawatts photovoltaic power generation demonstration projects.
The 30 megawatts projects such as China Huadian Corporation, China Guodian Corporation, Topray Solar, BYD, etc. have been listed as China Golden Sun demonstration projects, and bid invitation of Guohua Jingbian 20 megatwatts photovoltaic power generation concession has been completed successfully.
One million kilowatts wind power base has been launched, and the projects with installed capacity of 400,000 kilowatts such as the Luneng Wind Power Project in Ximawan area of Jingbian County, Datang Wind Power First Phase in Dingbian County of Zhangjiashan County, Huaneng Wind Power First Phase in Jingbian, Longzhou County, Guodian, Wind Power First Phase of Dingbian Fanshigou Wind Farm of China Guodian Corporation, etc.
has been started and under construction. Shuhe hydraulic power plant of 276,000 kilowatts on the main stream of Hanjiang River, and Xihe Power Plant of 180,000 kilowatts have been installed, constructed and put into operation. The construction of large and medium-sized hydropower stations such as Xunhe, Baihe, etc.
have been accelerated, and the annual installed capacity of small hydropower stations has witnessed a steadily increase of 6%. Preliminary achievements have been made in solar thermal applications and development and exploitation of biomass energy and geothermal energy. The level of new energy equipment manufacturing has been improved constantly, forming a production capacity of 1,000 tons of polysilicon, 1,000 megawatts of PV cells, 600 megawatts of photovoltaic subassembly, 1 million kilowatts of wind power machine and 500,000 kilowatts of auxiliary parts, and a batch of core enterprises such as Xinjiang Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd, BYD, State Nuclear Baoti Zirconium Industry Company, Shaanxi Diesel Engine Heavy Industry Co., Ltd, etc.
have witnessed significantly strengthened competitive advantages, with the technical level of the main products taking a leading position in China.
The supporting and driving role of energy chemical industry has become increasingly prominent. The energy chemical industry has developed and expanded to the primary industry in Shaanxi Province, and played an increasingly prominent role in guaranteeing national energy safety supply, serving for strengthening province construction in the western regions and providing support for strengthening energy province construction.
In 2009, the output value of energy chemical industry in Shaanxi Province has reached 382.5 billion yuan, which accounted for 45% of the industrial output value worthy of 850 billion yuan, increased by 146% in comparison with 152.3 billion yuan in 2005, up 7 percentage points in the proportion of the industrial output value; the added value worthy of 175 billion yuan has been accomplished, which accounted for 48.
9% of the industrial added value worthy of 358 billion yuan, contributed 3.3 percentage points to the 13.6% increase of GDP. Driven by the energy chemical base in North Shaanxi, the total output value of two cities in North Shaanxi has reached 202.2 billion yuan in 2009, and the total fiscal revenue worthy of 56.
3 billion yuan has been accomplished, accounting for 28% and 40% of the total proportion in Shaanxi Province, respectively, increased by 3 fold in comparison with that in 2005.
