Policy Explainer: Implementation Notice for the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages Harnessing the Wind" Program.

Recently the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), National Energy Administration (NEA), and Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs jointly published the notice on the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages Harnessing the Wind" (hereafter referred to as "the notice"). Relevant details can be found below:。

1: “Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages Harnessing the Wind" Program Policy Background.

In January 2024, China's Central Committee and State Council published an opinion document titled "Applying the "Thousand Village Demonstration, Ten Thousand Villages Renovation" project framework to Effectively Promote Comprehensive Rural Revitalization. The document indicates that rural areas should develop distributed renewable energy capacity.。In October of 2021, NDRC, NEA, and nine other government agencies jointly issued the"14th Five-Year Plan for Renewable Energy Development" which first proposed implementing the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of thousands of Villages Harnessing the Wind Action" program.。

In order to promote the implementation of the "Wind Harnessing Action for Thousands of Villages and Villages", since 2022, the NEA, together with relevant departments, has organized industry associations and think tanks, has worked to propose implementation plans. These dialogues included contributions from provincial energy authorities, power grid enterprises, wind turbine manufacturers, and developers. They further included conversations on how to best tailor development methods to local rural conditions.。These efforts culminated in March 2024 with the publication of "the notice" which coordinates implementation efforts.。

　　2: Practical Considerations for Carrying out the Notice

a. Make full use of the wind resources in idle or uncultivated plots of land. Carrying out the notice should promote local wind power consumption.。

b. The notice should stimulate significant renewable energy growth. 。Thus far, wind capacity growth has been concentrated in Northwestern, Northern, and Northeastern regions. As low-speed turbine technology matures, developing onsite wind generation capacity in Central, Eastern, and Southern China is becoming more feasible.。If 1,000 villages are selected for development this year at a rate of 20,000 kilowatts of distributed wind capacity per village, this program will add 20 gigawatts of distributed wind capacity to the grid per year, along with RMB 100 billion in investment. This will open up market opportunities for wind developers, expand development and investment, and stabilize growth.。

b. This program can help promote the rural energy revolution. 。Implementing the notice can integrate distributed wind with other forms of renewable energy at the village level like distributed photovoltaic and biomass power generation, which will help to improve the rural energy structure and achieve national carbon neutrality goals.。

C. This notice should contribute to national rural revitalization efforts.。Development should be carried out by "village-enterprise cooperation" between village collectives and investors. The notice aims to support profit sharing efforts through land use pricing and employment gauntness according to relevant laws. Wind development should benefit villages, farmers, and farmers as a part of the broader rural revitalization framework.。

　　3. Implementation Principles for the Notice

This notice will have a significant impact on rural life. In order to promote its orderly implementation, the following principles must be adhered to:。

a. Use local solutions for local conditions and take a comprehensive view of planning.。Development should be based on specific wind resources in the available idle land, and development cannot permanently claim exclusive access to farming land. Development must ensure comprehensive planning, environmental protection, electrical grid capacity and production and operation safety. Development should begin with pilot projects and proceed based on those results.。Develop projects as opportunities present themselves, avoid hasty or poorly planned development. 。

b. Use the village-enterprise cooperation model to ensure that development benefits local people.。The foundation of development needs to be the interests of farmers. The village-enterprise cooperation model is the best way to ensure that. Wind capacity installations should promote rural development. 。

c. Integrate environmental protection and development.。Under an environmental protection framework, project development must be integrated into the rural landscape and rural industries to create win-win development patterns.。

　4. Clearly Divide Responsibilities for Implementing the Notice

Implementing the Notice will require coordination between national, provincial, county, and other levels of the NEA and MARA, in addition to grid enterprises, developers, and investors.。

a. Begin with pilot projects.。Owing to the variety of local conditions, every region is advised to begin development at the pilot project level before carrying out review, and then promoting successful models to wider areas, rather than starting out with a larger implementation scope.。

b. Coordinate and promote efforts.。All administrative regions should design a holistic framework for the entire region which is based on hands on research, identifies key development areas, and ensure relevant safeguards including environmental protection.。Based on these higher level plans, administrative sub divisions should then propose detailed implementation plans on a more granular level. These proposals should include project site layout, installation capacity, construction arrangements, land use agreements, environmental protection, and profit sharing models.。

c. Use the "village-enterprise cooperation" model.。Through the "village-enterprise cooperation" model, development, construction, and operation should be jointly run and clear property rights and profit sharing agreements should be agreed upon.。

d. Coordination among all interested parties.。Energy authorities at the provincial level and below, together with the agriculture and rural affairs authorities, have together compiled the Notice;；Power grid enterprises shall cooperate to ensure grid connectivity and offtake;；Wind technology manufacturers will continue to contribute technological innovations as well as technical support;；Village collectives and investors will report revenue to county-level agriculture and rural affairs authorities.。

　5. Promote Innovation in Implementing the Notice

The distributed wind projects in the Notice are different from conventional wind power projects. They require innovative mechanisms to stimulate development.。

a. Project approval optimization.。Encourage local authorities to explore different filing methods；Different projects in the same administrative regions should be approved in one group；For projects that do not involve sensitive ecosystems such as protected waters, vegetation restoration, over extracted minerals, project approvals should be expedited. 。

b. Utilize innovative profit sharing methods.。Electricity demand comes from the village, and then the village and enterprise together promote project implementation。Implement the rural energy cooperation model of "co-construction co-sharing" for land use and public welfare. This should be done in accordance with relevant laws to ensure benefits for villagers.。

c. Innovate development application sights.。Development projects should be integrated with rural landscapes and industries to compliment other energy distribution sources such as distributed photovoltaics. 。

　　6. Support and Safeguard the smooth implementation of the Notice.

In order to support the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages program", the Notice takes rural realities into account and holistically proposes solutions to the issues development will face。

a. Ensure development land use rights。Strictly enforce national land use policies and use idle or non-cultivated plots of land without imposing any permanent restraints on farmland, ecological protection areas, or nature preserves. Development for the program should not compete with farmers for land and should not threaten environmental protection red lines.。If developing on cultivated land is unavoidable, land use procedures must be completed in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.。Encourage innovative land use agreements, make full use of existing rural land resources, and explore land use agreements which do not constraint cultivated land, change soil conditions, or otherwise negatively impact farming.。Encourage efficient land use models and technologies, reduce the amount of land occupied, reduce the soil impact。

b. Ensure local grid electricity consumption。The "Thousands of Villages and Tens of Thousands of Villages" program is based on local electricity grid consumption. The electricity price should be based on the renewable energy electricity price in the year of grid connection to ensure a reasonable and stable income level for the project。Projects should be encouraged to participate in market trading. Traded electricity will not have a surcharge or service cost sharing。

c. Create an effective market environment。Let the market dictate resource allocation, don't impose unreasonable investment costs such as unnecessary fees to protect industries。Encourage and support private enterprises and private capital to actively participate in the development and construction of wind power projects in the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages" program。

d. Strengthen financial supports for development。Implement green finance and rural revitalization financial policies, innovate investment and financing methods, and further increase support for wind power projects in the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of thousands of Villages" program in terms of financing and loans. 。

　　7. Strictly Enforce Environmental Protection

The implementation of the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages" program ensure environmental protection, efficient use of wind resources, integrating development into the rural landscape, and assisting the contributing to livable, industrial and beautiful villages。

a. Each administrative region must formulate an overall plan which emphasizes environmental protection。

b. Carry out environmental impact assessments in accordance with the law, and carefully formulate environmental protection and soil and water conservation. To meet technical standards for wind power while also satisfying environmental protection requirements, focus on possible impacts of the project on surrounding production, life, and ecology。

c. Project development should encourage efficient land use, low noise, high efficiency turbines.。Pay attention to avoiding the impact of noise on residential areas, pay attention to ecological protection such as impacts on bird habitats.。

d. Power generation companies must follow relevant documents such as the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Recycling of Retired Wind Power and Photovoltaic Equipment", "Management Measures for the Renovation, Upgrading and Decommissioning of Wind Farms" and other relevant documents to do a good job in recycling and processing of solid waste after wind power facilities are decommissioned, and promote the recycling of decommissioned wind power. 。

　　8. Strengthen the Monitoring and Supervision for the "Thousands of Townships and Tens of Thousands of Villages" Program

a. Provincial energy authorities will submit the implementation status to the National Energy Administration and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs on time, with a copy to the relevant National Energy Administration offices, and a copy of the specific projects to the National Renewable Energy Information Management Center for file establishment。

b. Provincial energy authorities, agricultural and rural departments, and agencies dispatched by the National Energy Administration should strengthen project supervision, implement information disclosure, give full play to the role of social supervision, and effectively protect the legitimate and reasonable rights and interests of all parties。

c. County-level MARA authorities are responsible for ensuring equitable profit sharingand ensuring that project income plays a role in strengthening village collective economy and promoting rural revitalization。
