Next "BRIC decade" energy development blueprint for thermal power facing a huge crisis
From September 3 to 5, the leaders of the BRICS countries gathered in the beautiful coastal city of Xiamen for the ninth meeting. Since then, the "golden ship" of the BRICS countries has sailed to the next decade of development. Openness, inclusiveness and win-win cooperation are the BRICS spirit that all countries adhere to. In the next decade, inEnergyWhat will be the new development blueprint? Let's wait and see.
Renewable energy technology exchange further expanded
The energy field is the cornerstone of the country's economic and social development. The BRICS countries are all emerging developing countries. While recognizing that fossil fuels are still one of the main energy sources, they generally advocate the development of renewable energy and clean energy.CoalAs the main energy supply and the basic situation that oil supply is increasingly dependent on external imports, South Africa is actively advocating the development of new energy. As a developed country in Africa, South Africa is also a big energy consumer. In recent years, affected by various factors at home and abroad, the development of traditional energy industries such as coal in South Africa has become more and more sluggish.thermal power generationThe main power is also facing a huge crisis.

The total renewable energy of the BRICS countries accounts for 40% of the world's total, of which my country's renewable energy accounts for 2/3 of the total of the BRICS countries, and the proportion is still growing.
At the same time, countries are also actively strengthening cooperation in renewable energy technology. Take China as an example, so far, China has made more than 124 investments in solar and wind power in 33 countries. Recently, China's two major nuclear power groups, CNNC and CGN, have recently disclosed news that the nuclear power industry, as a "national business card", has made new progress in overseas expansion, among which CNNC is expected to participate in Brazilian nuclear power projects.
As the new development bank, which undertakes the mutual settlement and loan business between BRICs countries, also said that the main focus of investment has always been sustainable development projects and infrastructure construction, which also provides a great support for the development and cooperation of renewable energy in various countries. The BRICs meeting will create a new "blue ocean" for the development of renewable energy ".
EnergyStrategic complementary cooperation will further promote
Among the BRICS countries, China, India and South Africa are major energy importers, while Russia and Brazil are major exporters, and they are highly complementary to each other in the development of regular, unconventional resources and renewable energy.


As we can see from the figure, China and India account for 18.1 per cent and 27.9 per cent of the total energy consumption structure, while the corresponding proportion of domestic oil production accounts for only 8.5 per cent and 10.2 per cent of the energy production structure. In contrast, Russia's oil accounts for 21.4 per cent of its consumption structure, but its production accounts for 40.8 per cent, and the three countries have a lot of room for complementarity and cooperation in the production and consumption of oil and energy.
Take the oil trade between China and Russia as an example
Russia's oil and gas pipeline network is quite developed, with a total length of more than 220000 kilometers and an annual transportation capacity of more than 60 million cubic meters. However, at present, Russia mainly supplies the European market. As a neighboring country sharing a 4300-kilometer border with Russia, there is only one crude oil pipeline to the east. At present, the natural gas pipeline leading to the eastern route of Sino-Russian natural gas is still under construction. If it is established in the future,"EnergyStrategic alliance ", the two countries will have more in-depth exchanges and cooperation.
Not only does Russia become the energy "king" with its abundant oil and gas resources, Brazil is also a major energy consumer in South America, and is at the forefront of the world in the field of deepwater oil and gas and biomass energy; South Africa is a major energy consumer in Africa, cleanCoalThe technology is world-leading; China is both a big energy demand country and a big producer. In recent years, it has achieved remarkable results in regular and unconventional oil and gas exploration......
BRICS energy security cooperation and the "Belt and Road Initiative" initiative should complement each other. It is believed that in the next decade, strengthening multilateral energy cooperation is bound to learn from each other's strengths and bring new impetus to energy trade and global economic growth.
