97 04 / COUNTRY REPORTS CHINA Dengwen Xia National Ocean Technology Centre INTRODUCTION The Chinese Government has paid more attention to marine renewable energy development in recent years. The published “Twelfth Five-Year” Plan of Renewable Energy Development outlines the renewable energy goal till 2015. The Interim Measures for the Administration of Renewable Energy Electricity Price Extra Subsidy promulgated jointly by the Ministry of Finance (MOF), the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the National Energy Administration (NEA) of the People’s Republic of China provides the electricity price extra subsidy for corporations engaged in marine renewable industries to encourage the investment in construction of renewable energy plants. The third round of special funding programme sponsored by the MOF and the State Oceanic Administration (SOA) of the People’s Republic of China to implement the RD&Demo of marine renewable energy came into effect in 2012. At the same time, the first round of special funding programme has taken initial effect. OCEAN ENERGY POLICY Strategy and National Targets The Chinese Government published the “Twelfth Five-Year” Plan of Renewable Energy Development (2011-2015) in early August 2012. The overarching target of achieving 20% of electricity generation from renewable sources by 2015 has been proposed. Especially for marine renewable energy, the plan suggests improving the technical level thus to escalate the utilization of marine renewable energy. Support Initiatives and Market Stimulation Incentives In March 2012, the MOF, NDRC and NEA jointly drew and promulgated the Interim Measures for the Administration of Renewable Energy Electricity Price Extra Subsidy, which establishes the mechanism of granting extra subsidy to renewable energy programmes. Main Public Funding Mechanisms The third round of the special funding programme sponsored by the MOF and SOA to implement the R, D & Demo of marine renewable energy funds new projects in 2012; the total funding is ¥200 million. The three rounds of special funding have led to the distribution of ¥600 million since 2010. Additionally, the National Key Technology R&D programme, sponsored by the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), the Knowledge Innovative Engineering of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), supports the utilization and development of marine renewable energy. Relevant Legislation and Regulation There are no additional changes in the current Chinese legislation regarding ocean energy, which is defined as the “Renewable Energy Law of the People’s Republic of China (Amendment)” implemented from April 2010. Relevant Documents Released In March 2012, the Chinese Government approved the National Marine Functional Zoning (2011-2020). China has implemented the marine functional zoning plan since 2002. The new round of National Marine
98 Functional Zoning (2011-2020) would arrange the sea area utilization and marine environment protection over the next ten years according to the law related to the marine exploitation and protection, such as the Law of SeaArea Use Management (2002) and the Marine Environment Protection Law (2000). In April 2012, SOA promulgated the National Plan for Islands Protection (2011-2020). As the first islands protection plan, the Plan firstly puts forward making use of marine renewable energy to improve the living circumstance in remote islands. Related activities On 1112 April 2012, the 1 st Annual China Marine Renewable Energy Conference hosted by the National Ocean Technology Centre (NOTC) and the Administrative Centre for Marine Renewable Energy (ACMRE) was held in Beijing, China. The theme of the conference was “Challenge and Opportunities, the Outlook of the Marine Renewable Energy in China”. More than 230 participants from central and local governments, institutes, universities and related corporations discussed and provided suggestions related to the policies, technologies and industries of marine renewable energy. RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT Government Funded R&D Tidal energy In August 2012, Jiangxia Tidal Power Plant began the upgrading project sponsored by the third round of special fund programme for MRE. One of the six existing turbines will be improved from 500kW to 700kW to increase 200,000kWh annual power output. The study on the new-type double-acting tubular turbine is ongoing, which has a 100kW installed capacity. In the design condition, the generating efficiency is 88% when working in a positive direction, and 80% when working in a contrary direction. Now, the turbine is under the prototype test. Several tidal power pre-feasibility studies are under progress in China, including the 40MW Rushan estuarine tidal power pre-feasibility study in Shandong province, the 20MW Maluan Bay tidal power pre-feasibility study and the 10MW Bachimen tidal power pre-feasibility study in Fujian province. Tidal current energy Haineng I tidal current energy device: Harbin Engineering University successfully developed the 300kW vertical-axis tidal current energy device under the support of the National Key Technology R&D Programme. On 19 July 2012, the prototype was deployed in Guishan Channel, Zhejiang province, and has been tested since then. The device carrier is a catamaran-type with dimensions of 24×13.9×2m ,and a the tonnage of 118 ton. There are two 150 kW turbines with start-up velocity of 1.8m/s. The direct current from the device is transported to the island through the underwater cable. Deployment of the Haineng I tidal current energy ANNUAL REPORT 2012
