The electric power industry is now quite mature and is unlikely to have sudden bright spots in the short term. Traditional equipment manufacturing, power grid operation and other fields are in a state of saturation and monopoly. At present, the main development points of the power industry are about three aspects: new energy, ultra-high voltage transmission, and support system. These three aspects complement each other.
New energy
Currently, in China, new energy mainly refers to wind power and photovoltaic, and there are also some other such as biomass power generation, biogas power generation, waste heat generation and so on. Don't underestimate the power of new energy. In some western provinces, such as gansu, new energy generation has surpassed traditional thermal power and became the first power source of the power grid. During the 13th five-year plan period, new energy sources have emerged from scratch. Currently, China's new energy generation capacity is at several hundred million kilowatt-hours per day, accounting for about five percent of the country's total electricity consumption. That growth took place in just five years, and it was an explosion for a traditional industry. But in the early days of new energy generation, there were loopholes in national policies, which led to a lot of subsidies, especially in the photovoltaic industry. At present, the national policy has been revised, and the new energy industry has gradually developed in a healthy direction. Although say don't like the new energy power grid enterprises to the Internet, not because of reduced the quantity sold, but because of who I am scheduling a lot of trouble, but under pressure from national policy, new energy hair how much electricity, power grid is given, the basic is not negotiable. And in the short term, there is little chance of a big change in policy. As for scheduling is difficult, harmonic pollution, frequency instability that kind of problem, now has been basically eliminated through technical means, the instant solved well believe that the future will be, after all, the difficulty is not too big. At present, power generation groups are seizing the new energy generation market, and there are many private companies in this industry. Generally speaking, this area is still in the growth stage, and the demand for talents and technology is relatively strong.
Ultra-high voltage transmission
China's energy distribution is very uneven. Northwest, southwest, northeast and other regions are rich in energy, but not high load. The load center is located on the eastern seaboard. The long distance of energy transmission, especially the new energy mentioned in the previous article, is concentrated in the northwest region, delivering great demand. Every day, the wind power due to insufficient channel loss is in the tens of thousands of kilowatt-hour. In order to carry out thousands of kilometers of power transmission, uhv transmission is necessary. A random search can be found that both the national and southern networks have a very ambitious construction plan for cross-regional transmission lines. This brings three influences: first, it needs a large number of power equipment manufacturing enterprises and talents with technical strength; Second, the grid company set up a new department is responsible for the maintenance of uhv transmission lines, a new department means more opportunities, the opportunity not only including the employment opportunity, also includes the some technology solutions provider, equipment manufacturers, etc. Third, extreme importance to intellectual property rights in our country now, high-tech equipment, especially the relationship between energy security and foreign equipment manufacturing companies tended to be with the requirements of the technology transfer agreement, and undertake the domestic equipment manufacturing enterprises of technology transfer in the process of this technology has been greatly promoted. At present, there is no shortage of people in this industry, but there is a shortage of designers with the ability to design equipment and after-sales service personnel with technical support. On the one hand, although domestic production of these equipment, but cannot design by itself; On the other hand, once the equipment is in trouble, foreign experts are often required to make the diagnosis. That means huge costs. Therefore, the company with technical ability and can provide reliable after-sales technical support will have a lot of room for growth.
Support system
The so-called support system refers to the software system used in power grid operation and power production. This is a very wide range of systems: from the D5000 system for power dispatch to the small software used for personnel management, to the various analysis systems used to analyze power grid data. Due to security reasons, this area at present only a handful of companies to provide services, and service personnel have mostly electrical industry background, lack of industry background, such as the computer, the design result in existing software although functional diversity, but most of the practicability, ease of use. With further complicated by the grid, providing software services company will be more and more, more and more growth opportunities, electrical + + design computer literacy inter-disciplinary talent demand will only become more and more big, if you can combine all three at the same time, to develop a more suitable for the grid software products, will greatly promotes the development of the company.
The power market
At present, China's electricity market reform is in full swing, but the overall situation is still in the initial stage. All kinds of social capital are set up to sell electricity companies, trying to get a piece of the reform. However, in fact, due to the low electricity price and relatively fixed power generation cost of power plants, the mode of wholesale power and retail to residents is very limited. Most of the companies that sell electricity have ideas on big users. Wanting to make a sale of an electric company from scratch not only requires strong capital, but also a strong social network. There will certainly be a lot of companies in the future, and these companies will certainly need people with financial, legal, and power complex backgrounds.
