NDRC and NEA Issue 15th Five-Year Power Plan for Coal-Fired Flexibility Retrofits and New Energy Integration

China's National Development and Reform Commission and National Energy Administration have issued the 15th Five-Year Plan for Building a New-Type Power System, requiring existing coal-fired units to undergo wide-load high-efficiency retrofits and limiting the coal consumption increase under low-load operation to within 25%. The plan supports coal power and new energy integration projects, and calls for flexibility retrofits of all eligible existing units by 2030. Combined heat and power units must achieve minimum power output below 40%, with heat-power decoupling encouraged to maintain stable heating.

Photovoltaic Industry Group Standard Unifies Cost Accounting Model Across Supply Chain

China's photovoltaic industry suffered severe losses in the first half of 2026, with 22 of 26 listed companies reporting losses totaling RMB 18.3 billion to RMB 21.4 billion. In response, the China Photovoltaic Industry Association released a group standard for cost accounting, unifying calculation methods across the silicon, wafer, cell and module chain. The standard defines three cost tiers—cash, production and full cost—and requires integrated firms to use stepwise full-cost transfer, prohibiting below-cost internal pricing. It provides a quantitative basis for identifying below-cost sales and supports regulatory price monitoring.
