All relevant units:
In September 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping announced that China would implement more robust policies and measures, aiming to peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and strive for carbon neutrality by 2060. On June 1, 2022, the National Development and Reform Commission and nine other departments issued a notice on the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan" for the development of renewable energy, emphasizing the active promotion of large-scale geothermal energy development. Achieving the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality is a major strategic decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, a solemn commitment to the international community, and a significant opportunity for professionals and researchers in the upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors of the geothermal field.Guided by the Geothermal Professional Committee of the China Geophysical Society and the Geothermal Energy Professional Committee of the China Renewable Energy Society, the "2023 Geothermal Frontier Technology Innovation Conference and the First Multifaceted New Energy Complementarity Advanced Technology Workshop," hosted by Anhui WFCN Energy Investment Co., Ltd., will be held in Hefei, Anhui Province, from December 27 to 29, 2023. The conference theme is "Geothermal Technology Innovation to Support Carbon Neutrality."
Geothermal Month activities are held three months prior to the conference, including but not limited to "Pythontogether withDARTSGeothermal numerical simulation training" (October 2023),"Geothermal Calculator vs.OpenGeoSysTraining"(October 2023)"Deep Well Heat Transfer Testing and Data Analysis Training"(November 2023)."Training in methods of determining reservoir temperatures in geothermal fields"((November 2023),"Technical training in geothermal energy geophysical survey methods"(December 2023)."Technical training on the design of geothermal high-efficiency energy station systems"(December 2023), among other activities.
During the conference, we will also hold the First Multifaceted New Energy Complementarity Advanced Technology Workshop, focusing on topics such as innovation and application of new energy technologies, design and optimization of multi-energy complementary systems, the integration of renewable energy and traditional energy, smart grids for new energy, and energy storage technology. This aims to promote academic exchange and technological innovation in the field of new energy and enhance the application and development of multi-energy complementary technologies in energy transformation.
After the meeting, participants will be organized to visit the Anhui Energy Group to help Changfeng Energy Comprehensive Reform and Innovation Pilot Project.Anhui government attaches great importance to the province's first comprehensive energy reform and innovation pilot workThe provincial energy group has been selected to participate in the pilot project, and its Anhui Wanfeng Changneng Investment Co., Ltd. is responsible for its implementation.
