Green power direct connection is an important mode to promote the nearby consumption of new energy. Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration issued a notice on promoting the orderly development of multi-user green power direct connection, further promoting the consumption of new energy and promoting the innovative development of new models, new business models, and new scenarios in the energy and power field. In 2025, two departments issued a notice on promoting the orderly development of green power direct connection, supporting the "direct meeting" of green power with a single user without going through the power grid, and creating a new mode of energy consumption nearby. Under policy guidance, currently, 99 green power direct connection projects have been approved nationwide, corresponding to a total installed capacity of 34.05 million kilowatts of new energy. Compared with the green power direct connection policy introduced last year, this year's policy has achieved a breakthrough from 'one' to 'many'. ”Fan Pengfei, Dean of the Energy Policy and Market Research Institute of the Electric Power Planning and Design Institute, said that the green power direct connection model has expanded from "single user exclusive" to "multi-party inclusive sharing", further expanding the policy coverage. ——This year's notice specifies that new energy sources such as wind power, solar power, and biomass power supply green electricity to multiple users through dedicated lines and substation facilities, achieving clear traceability and distribution of electricity supply. At the same time, the notice proposes multi-user green power direct connection application scenarios, including new loads, single user green power direct connection projects in existing loads, enterprises with green power consumption demand, upstream and downstream enterprises in export industries, and industrial parks. The relevant person in charge of the National Energy Administration stated that currently, industrial parks account for more than 66% of China's total energy consumption. In the future, the dual control policy for carbon emissions will gradually cover more high energy industries, promote multi-user green power direct connection among key industry enterprises, industrial parks, zero carbon parks, etc., which is conducive to expanding the space for the development and utilization of new energy and promoting the achievement of China's "dual carbon" goals. ——This year's notice on promoting the nearby consumption of new energy has clarified the constraint mechanism for the nearby consumption of new energy. According to the regulations, after the grid connected projects are put into operation, the annual on grid electricity consumption should not exceed 20% of the total available power generation. This quantitative indicator clearly states that the primary function of multi-user green power direct connection projects is to consume new energy nearby, rather than selling electricity to the public grid. ”Wang Shaomin, a researcher at the Energy Research Institute of China Huaneng Group Co., Ltd., said that by setting an upper limit on the amount of electricity connected to the grid, it effectively prevents projects from using the large power grid as a "backup pool" for unlimited reverse power transmission, avoids occupying the transmission channels and peak shaving resources of the public power grid, and encourages projects to accurately match power output and load characteristics during the planning stage. ——The relevant person in charge of the National Energy Administration encourages multi-user collaborative optimization of electricity consumption, stating that by aggregating flexible loads, enhancing centralized control and management capabilities, and reasonably allocating energy storage, the overall regulation ability of the project can be improved, thereby enhancing project economy. It encourages internal entities to explore flexible collaboration methods, and to agree on regulation responsibilities and corresponding economic compensation standards based on different regulation capabilities between entities. The notice proposes to regularly negotiate and adjust the purchase and sale agreement or contract energy management agreement based on external market price changes, actual load adjustment capabilities, and other factors. This provides direction for both parties to negotiate internal settlement methods, electricity curves, and other agreement contents, effectively enhancing the flexibility of project operation and the adaptability of internal transactions. ”Fan Pengfei said. Currently, the development and utilization of green power in China is transitioning from a single entity exploration to a stage of multi-party collaboration. The interviewee believes that multi-user green power direct connection can help promote the transformation of green power consumption from "individual enterprise behavior" to "park and cluster behavior", becoming an important infrastructure form to support the construction of zero carbon parks, promote industrial green transformation, and enhance the international competitiveness of enterprises.
