July 23, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments on the issuance of "electrolytic aluminum industry energy conservation and carbon reduction special action plan" notice, the notice pointed out that actively support electrolytic aluminum enterprises to expand the application of wind power, photovoltaic, hydroelectric power, biomass and other non-fossil energy, in principle, no longer add new self-fired coal-fired units, to support the implementation of the existing self-fired coal-fired units of clean energy substitution. Encourage aluminum electrolysis enterprises to participate in the construction of microgrids that mainly consume renewable energy, explore the application of aluminum electrolysis virtual energy storage and flexible control technology, and improve the project's ability to adjust and match the electricity load. Support electrolytic aluminum enterprises to actively increase the consumption of renewable energy by means of green certificate and green power trading, and construction of renewable energy power generation projects. Promote electrolytic aluminum enterprises to promote the application of closed belt corridors, new energy vehicles and vessels, railroads, waterways and other clean and low-carbon transportation methods. By 2025, the proportion of clean transportation will reach about 70%, and the proportion in key areas for air pollution prevention will reach about 80%.
