"We will actively promote the deep integration of the industrial chain, innovation chain, capital chain and talent chain, seize the development opportunities of the advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage industries, seize the commanding heights of the industry, and strive to build an advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage industry cluster with global influence!" Feng Kejin, Secretary of the Party Group and Director of the Anhui Provincial Department of Economy and Information Technology, said.
In recent years, "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality" have become hot topics in China and even the world, and under this goal, renewable energy represented by wind and photovoltaic energy will become the main energy source in the future. Therefore, Anhui, which has abundant solar energy resources and manufacturing infrastructure, aims at the photovoltaic storage industry and has introduced a series of policies to encourage the photovoltaic storage industry to reach a new level.
On February 2, the reporter learned from the Provincial Optical Storage Office that Anhui seized the strategic opportunity for the development of the optical storage industry, the industrial agglomeration became more and more prominent, and the competitive advantage gradually emerged. In 2023, the province's photovoltaic equipment and components manufacturing industry will achieve an operating income of 2967400 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 509%, and the revenue ranking jumped to the third place in the country for the first time.
As we all know, photovoltaic glass is an important accessory in the photovoltaic industry chain and an irreplaceable component of photovoltaic power generation modules, and quartz sand is one of the main raw materials for the production of photovoltaic glass. There is a place in Anhui Province, its rich quartz sand resources cover an area of 80 square kilometers, and the prospective reserves are more than 10 billion tons, accounting for about 15% of all quartz sand reserves in China, and the reserves, taste and mining value are ranked first in the country, it is the famous "hometown of quartz" - Fengyang County, Chuzhou. The abundant resources of the county have greatly boosted Anhui Province's "birth to the sun, chasing the 'light'".
Resource advantages are incarnated as "boosters", and the advantages of key links are becoming more and more prominent. In recent years, relying on the advantages of quartz sand resources and the location advantages of convenient exports, our province has cultivated photovoltaic glass, cells, modules, inverters and other industrial chain advantages. By the end of 2023, the annual output of the above links will be 125910,000 tons, 764gw、113.3GW and 1563GW, an increase from 20229% and 881%。Among them, the output of photovoltaic glass accounts for more than 1 2 of the country, the output of inverters accounts for 1 3 of the country, and the output of modules accounts for about 1 4 of the country.
The agglomeration of market players has accelerated, and the traction role of leading enterprises is obvious. In recent years, our province has vigorously attracted the world's leading enterprises in the field of advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage, and among the top ten enterprises in the global shipment, there are 7 photovoltaic glass enterprises, 4 photovoltaic cell enterprises, 5 photovoltaic module enterprises, 2 photovoltaic inverter enterprises, 1 energy storage battery enterprise and 1 energy storage system integration enterprise in our province. At the same time, a number of local enterprises such as Sungrow, Guoxuan Hi-Tech, and Huasheng New Energy have accelerated their growth.
The reporter learned from the Provincial Optical Storage Office that in 2023, the number of enterprises with a revenue of more than 10 billion yuan in the province's optical storage industry will reach 12 for the first time, and the total operating income is expected to reach 280 billion yuan, of which the revenue of the optical storage business will exceed 250 billion yuan, accounting for nearly 75% of the operating income of the province's advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage industries; The revenue growth rate exceeded 80 billion yuan, accounting for 80% of the industry's revenue growth.
Relying on leading enterprises in the industry such as Sungrow, Guoxuan Hi-Tech, Huasheng New Energy, and universities and research institutes such as China University of Science and Technology and Hefei Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a number of innovative achievements in the field of advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage have been born in our province and have refreshed world records for many times.
Technological innovation, standing on the "new outlet". In 2023, there will be a net increase of 62 high-tech enterprises in the field of advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage in the province, reaching 169, and 334 technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises; 1 new national innovation platform was added, bringing the total number to 6; The proportion of leading enterprises with revenue of more than 10 billion yuan in Anhui setting up R&D institutions and innovation platforms has reached 583%, an increase of nearly 20 percentage points from 2022. The ability to innovate to achieve leapfrog breakthroughs.
2024 is a key year for our province's advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage industries to accelerate the improvement of core competitiveness and achieve high-quality development.
Our province will give full play to the advantages of a relatively complete industrial layout, an increasingly prominent advantage in key links, a continuous improvement in innovation ability, a traction drive by leading enterprises, an accelerated agglomeration of market players and a gathering of talents in colleges and universities, and cooperate with the resources and forces of all parties, closely follow the two keywords of 'advanced and new', seize the opportunity of transformation, and adhere to the integration of R&D, manufacturing and application. The relevant person in charge of the Provincial Optical Storage Office said that from the aspects of industrial innovation and research and development, industrial forging to complement each other's weaknesses, industrial level upgrading, industrial ecological optimization, overseas market expansion, product promotion and application, and standardized industrial layout, we will make precise efforts to promote the acceleration of innovation capabilities, more perfect industrial chain layout, more active demonstration applications, and significantly enhanced core competitiveness, and strive to By the end of 2024, the operating income of the province's advanced photovoltaic and new energy storage industries will increase by about 15%, and the new photovoltaic installed capacity will reach 5 million kilowatts. The cumulative installed capacity of new energy storage exceeded 2 million kilowatts.
