Thermal denitrification cost about 1 point per degree

It was learned on the 28th that the “Denitrification Electricity Price for Coal-fired Generating Units and Operational Measures for Denitrification Facilities Management” jointly formulated by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Development and Reform Commission will be announced soon and will be implemented uniformly across the country.

The denitrification tariff subsidies for the thermal power units proposed in the Measures (including new simultaneous installation and retrofitting of organic units) will maintain the NDRC's tentative implementation of 0.8 points per degree for pilot projects in 14 provinces and autonomous regions at the end of November last year. Additional incentive measures such as emission reduction fees that power generation companies have appealed for will also be reflected in the Measures.

According to industry insiders, there is a certain gap between the subsidy limit of 0.8 cents per degree and the previous industry expectation, and it is difficult to completely bridge the increase in operating costs of power generation companies due to denitrification of thermal power. According to calculations by the Electricity Regulatory Commission, the cost of denitrification of thermal power is generally around 1 point per degree.

According to authoritative sources, on the one hand, from the perspective of this year's annual survey, the low coal price operation has generally improved the profitability of power generation enterprises. At this time, the increased cost burden of power generation and denitrification for power generation enterprises has been reduced than in the past. On the other hand, although the allowance amount cannot be One step is in place, but in the future it is not ruled out that the relevant authorities may further increase the amount of subsidies as the situation warrants.

Analysts pointed out that, on the whole, at the time when the unified thermal power denitrification electricity price is implemented nationwide, the power generation enterprises should have a certain degree of enthusiasm under the policy of encouraging and restraining both parties. With the favorable policy to fulfill, the large-scale launch of the thermal power and flue gas denitrification market has begun.
