The Ministry of industry and information technology and other seven departments recently issued the action plan on printing and distributing green and low-carbon development of the information and communication industry (hereinafter referred to as the plan). The plan requires to improve the level of green energy consumption in the industry, increase the promotion and use of green energy, orderly promote the use of lithium batteries, explore the application of hydrogen fuel cells, and promote the integrated application of new energy storage technology and power supply and distribution technology. The person in charge of relevant departments of the Ministry of industry and information technology said that according to the relevant deployment, by 2025, the number of 5g base stations per 10000 people will increase from 5 in 2020 to 26, and the computing power scale of the data center will increase from 90 eflops to 300 eflops, which will inevitably lead to the rigid growth of the industry's energy demand. In the face of the new situation and new requirements, it is urgent to make overall planning and guidance at the policy level as soon as possible. According to the plan, by 2025, the management mechanism for green and low-carbon development of the information and communication industry will be basically improved, key breakthroughs will be made in energy conservation and emission reduction, the overall resource utilization efficiency of the industry will be significantly improved, and the ability to assist the green transformation of the economy and society will be significantly enhanced. The comprehensive energy consumption per unit of information flow will be 20% lower than that at the end of the 13th five year plan, and the comprehensive energy consumption per unit of total telecommunications business will be 15% lower than that at the end of the 13th five year plan, Select and promote 30 typical application scenarios of enabling the whole society to reduce carbon in the information and communication industry. The plan grasps the key points of the implementation of the carbon peaking and carbon neutralization strategy, takes into account the needs of the information and communication industry for its own green and low-carbon development, and aims at the five directions of "optimizing the layout, focusing on the key points, promoting coordination, strengthening the empowerment and unified management", and proposes to optimize the overall layout of green development, focus on the green development of three key facilities, promote the construction of the green industrial chain supply chain in a coordinated manner, strengthen the supply capacity of the industry to enable the economic and social green development Strengthening the overall management of green development in the industry. In terms of optimizing the overall layout of green development, the plan requires that enterprises should be encouraged to build green energy facilities in their own places and cooperate with green energy scheme providers to absorb energy nearby. Support the demonstration application of intelligent photovoltaic in the field of information and communication. A number of cases of using green energy were created on a pilot basis. The plan also requires that enterprises should be encouraged to actively use green power. We will promote the smooth procurement of green power, establish a carbon emission offset mechanism for green power, and encourage enterprises to actively purchase green power. We will strengthen the awareness of enterprises to actively consume green power, encourage them to improve the level of green power use through self built special lines or bilateral transactions, and purchase green power certificates, and gradually increase the proportion of green power in the overall energy consumption. "As a new infrastructure builder, information and communication enterprises can achieve innovation driven quality change, power change and efficiency change by promoting the application of advanced green technologies, improving green and low-carbon management capabilities, accelerating the green upgrading of networks, and improving the level of green power use, so as to promote the green and high-quality development of the industry." The person in charge of relevant departments of the Ministry of industry and information technology said. The person in charge said that the green and low-carbon development of the information and communication industry is of great significance. By establishing and improving the green procurement system, enterprises can increase the requirements on the energy efficiency and service life of facilities in procurement, and guide enterprises in the industrial chain such as equipment supply to provide green and low-carbon products
