This year, the SASAC will combine the implementation of the relevant requirements of the "Opinions on Promoting the Optimization and Structural Adjustment of the Layout of the State-Owned Economy in the New Era" with the implementation of the three-year action of state-owned enterprise reform, take marketization as the principle, comply with the law, and actively and steadily guide central enterprises to do a good job in restructuring.

The first is to pay attention to the overall overall planning. Further strengthen the top-level design, deepen the systematic research on related industries and enterprises, focus on industries and fields with prominent industrial structural contradictions, serious homogeneous competition, and scattered innovation resources, make overall plans for the overall goal direction and key tasks of reorganization and integration, steadily advance in a planned, step-by-step, and rhythmic manner, and do all work in detail and in depth. Peng Huagang said, "In fact, from last year's restructuring, you can also see that our restructuring in the past two years is still different from previous years, we pay more attention to the top-level design to consider the problem, pay more attention to the integration of specialization and the adjustment of industrial layout." ”

Second, solidly promote the strategic reorganization and professional integration of central enterprises. In terms of strategic reorganization, focus on the implementation of national strategies such as supply-side structural reform, innovation-driven development, and construction of a manufacturing power, in accordance with the principle of "mature one household, promote one household", steadily promote the restructuring and integration of steel and other fields, and study and form a new central enterprise group in related fields in a timely manner; in terms of professional integration, it will take the business as the goal of becoming stronger and more refined, take the advantageous enterprises as the main body, actively promote the professional integration of grain reserve processing, port terminals and other fields, and effectively improve the efficiency of resource allocation and the core competitiveness of enterprises.

At the same time, we will guide and urge restructuring enterprises to accelerate integration and integration. Promote enterprises to further promote the integration of business, assets, culture, etc., accelerate the realization of restructuring and synergy benefits, continuously improve the level of corporate governance, and accelerate the construction of a world-class enterprise with global competitiveness.

Energy supply: Actively guide coal market prices back to a reasonable range

Since the second half of last year, energy supply has been a concern. Peng Huagang said that in implementing the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council on the supply of energy and electricity, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has set up a special work class, introduced special assessment rewards and punishments, actively coordinated relevant policy support, urged and guided central enterprises to comprehensively launch a tough battle to ensure energy and electricity supply, make every effort to maintain the safety of power supply and heating, and ensure that the people are warm through the winter, and have achieved positive and remarkable results.

The output of central coal enterprises hit a record high. By the end of last year, 42 coal mines in central enterprises were included in the emergency supply list, and the nuclear production capacity is expected to increase by 94.1 million tons per year. In the fourth quarter, the average daily coal production capacity reached 2.95 million tons, an increase of more than 17% over the previous three quarters. Last year, the output of central coal enterprises exceeded the 1 billion ton mark for the first time, and the National Energy Group and China Coal Group took the lead in implementing medium- and long-term contracts, accumulating more than 80 billion yuan in profits to middle and downstream enterprises.

By the end of last year, the thermal coal inventory of central power generation enterprises reached 95.69 million tons, an increase of 29.2% year-on-year, and the number of available days of thermal coal inventory reached 20.1 days, an increase of 5.1 days year-on-year。 "The amount of coal stored in thermal coal is a very important indicator to ensure supply, and central enterprises have made great progress in this regard." Peng Huagang said that the annual power generation reached 4.95 trillion kWh, an increase of 10.2% year-on-year, accounting for 64.6% of the country's power generation, accounting for 2.5 percentage points higher than the installed capacity. The central power grid enterprises have effectively guaranteed the continuous zeroing of orderly electricity consumption. Since the end of September last year, the State Grid and the China Southern Power Grid have given full play to the advantages of the allocation of resources in the large power grid, and have organized 732 inter-regional and inter-provincial supports and 5.3 billion kWh of electricity.

At present, the international environment and the global energy pattern system are undergoing profound changes, and the mainland's energy security and stable supply are also facing many challenges. Peng Huagang said that in the face of this situation, the SASAC will unswervingly do a good job in energy security and effectively play the role of energy supply "stabilizer" and "ballast stone".

Central coal enterprises will further implement the requirements of supply-side structural reform, on the one hand, focus on expanding the increment, enhance the concentration and control of high-quality coal resources; on the other hand, focus on optimizing the stock, dig deep into their own production potential, scientifically formulate production plans, improve emergency supply guarantee plans, accelerate the release of high-quality coal production capacity, and make every effort to ensure the safe and stable supply of coal. At the same time, we will continue to give play to the exemplary role of large enterprises in stabilizing the market, strictly implement the medium- and long-term contract system for coal, and actively guide market prices to return to a reasonable range.

Central power generation enterprises will actively implement the national goal of "carbon peak carbon neutrality", increase investment in clean energy construction, increase the proportion of clean energy installed capacity of central enterprises, and continue to play the role of coal-fired power generation as the main force, rationally plan the installed scale of new coal-fired power generation, increase the efficient and clean transformation of existing coal-fired power units, and improve the safety and environmental protection level of coal-fired power units。 Increase the construction of coal reserve bases, increase coal storage efforts, and ensure that thermal coal stocks are maintained at a reasonable level。

Central petroleum and petrochemical enterprises will continue to increase domestic natural gas production, strengthen key technological innovations, increase investment and development of shale gas fields, diversify natural gas import sources, and effectively make up for the gap between supply and demand. Accelerate the improvement of natural gas storage capacity, layout gas storage planning in advance, strengthen investment, construction and operation management of gas storage reservoirs, improve the natural gas industry chain, and ensure the safety of natural gas supply。
