海外电力市场发展现状和前景

海外电力市场发展现状和前景摘要:随着国内电力能源形势日益紧张,海外电力投资政策利好,越来越多的电力企业投入到海外电力市场的浪潮中。
本文通过对海外电力市场的发展需求、能源现状、参与企业的状况进行分析,对未来发展前景和电力相关单位的竞争趋势进行展望。
随着“一带一路”建设的深入推进,中巴经济走廊建设全面展开,中蒙俄经济走廊规划纲要正式签署,新亚欧大陆桥经济走廊和孟中印缅经济走廊稳步推进,区域合作基金相继推出,“两优”贷款、出口信贷等金融支持政策不断完善,中国企业“走出去”迎来了巨大的机遇。
今年,“一带一路”国际合作高峰论坛顺利召开,国际产能、基础设施、能源、科技等领域迈入更深层次的合作互通。
1 海外电力市场发展需求从需求端来看,“一带一路”的沿线国家大都是发展中国家,虽然近几年随着外来资金的投入,在基础设施、能源方面的条件有所改善,但无论从国内需求还是未来区域经济合作的角度分析,与世界平均水平相比,这些国家电力消费潜力、装机容量仍然有极大的增长空间,对于电力建设的需求仍极其旺盛。
此外,“一带一路”部分沿线国家(如俄蒙中亚及沿海岸线国家)煤炭、天然气资源丰富,也为其发展常规火电带来了得天独厚的优势。
同时,随着发展中国家的经济发展需求,部分由落后能源设施带来的环境、社会问题逐渐显现,因此,以清洁能源为主的建设需求也将是“一带一路”能源发展的重点方向。
从竞争端来看,受经济增速放缓和产业政策调整影响,国内电力投资增速明显放缓,国家能源局对煤电项目提出“取消一批、缓核一批、缓建一批”,国内电力投资企业逐渐将海外电力设施作为投资重点,窗口公司、工程公司、大型设备制造商、电力设计院也纷纷将海外电力工程项目作为业务开拓的重中之重,竞争态势更具白热化。
2 海外能源市场发展情况根据《BP世界能源展望》(2017版),预计从2015年到2035年,世界能源需求年均增长1.3%。
几乎所有增长都来自新兴经济体,中国和印度贡献超过一半。

然而,老挝在发展过程中面临着一些挑战。
首先,由于经济结构单一,依赖自然资源和低附加值的经济活动,老挝的经济增长仍然面临不稳定性和不可持续性的风险。
其次,老挝的基础设施发展仍然滞后,尤其是在偏远地区,交通不便影响了经济活动的顺利进行。
综上所述,老挝在基础设施建设、旅游业发展和农业现代化等
方面取得了一些进展,在推动经济增长和改善民生方面取得了一定成就。
然而,仍然需要解决一些挑战,以实现可持续的经济发展。
老挝电力市场

一、区域电力市场情况亚洲电力市场的表现十分强劲。
据BMI估计,2015-2024年,亚洲电力领域将继续保持快速发展态势。
火力发电仍然是亚洲最主要的发电方式,燃煤发电占比最大。
同时,当前亚洲大多数国家鼓励以新能源发电取代传统火电,预计未来核电、可再生能源发电将发挥着愈加重要的作用。
2015-2024年,亚洲核能发电或将达到现在的两倍;可再生能源产能增速将超过110%,其中中国在可再生能源领域的表现将最为突出。
中短期内,水力发电量占总发电量的比重基本保持在15%左右,但在个别国家,比如老挝和柬埔寨,水力发电则表现比较强劲。
二、老挝电力行业SWOT 分析优势:(1)老挝水资源极为丰富,水力发电潜力巨大。
(2)老挝劳动力成本比较低。
(3)老挝政局稳定、社会秩序好。
中国与老挝之间的关系长期友好,老挝政府对中国企业的投资持欢迎、鼓励政策。
劣势:(1)老挝银行系统欠发达。
(2)老挝人口较少,劳动力不足,需要引入大量外籍劳工,同时老挝对外籍劳工进入有严格规定,需要申请指标。
(3)老挝政府腐败现象严重。
(4)缺乏促进公私伙伴关系模式发展的法律框架。
机会:(1)老挝政府鼓励开发水电等可再生能源发电。
(2)老挝周边电力需求旺盛,带动老挝电力出口。
老挝邻近的东南亚各国的电力均面临紧缺,为老挝电力出口创造了机遇。
(3)中国"一带一路"战略带动老挝电力基建项目开发。
威胁:(1)水电、燃煤发电项目开发引发对环境的担忧。
(2)老挝资金不足,需外国投资者带资。
(3)当地电力消费能力有限,电力市场以外需为主,但出口市场不确定性大。
(4)老挝财政收入有限,外债负担重。
三、老挝电力行业准入限制从20世纪80年代末开始,老挝先后颁布或修改多项鼓励外商投资的法律、法规,外国投资者可以按照"协议联合经营"、与老挝投资者成立"混合企业"和"外国独资企业"等3种方式到老挝投资。
外国人以及其他组织没有土地的使用权,只享有土地租赁权。
老挝国内劳动力不足,劳动力市场明显呈现出供小于求。
老挝万象桑通光伏项目电力消纳分析

老挝万象桑通光伏项目电力消纳分析摘要:随着国内新能源产能的饱和,新能源产能输出成为近期业界关注的焦点,2020年国际化竞争市场中,由原来的欧美主导已经变成了中国投资者竞争的红海战地。
本文就东南亚地区老牌“蓄电池”——老挝的电力市场的消纳进行分析,为东南亚电力投资者参考。
关键词:老挝,电力消纳,老挝电网,电力规划随着中国新能源项目的开发资源逐渐饱和,国内资源竞争愈演愈烈。
东南亚地区是中国电力产能输出“第一站”,老挝以其得天独厚的位置优势兴建了大量水电项目,但老挝也是旱季、雨季降雨量明显的国家,过渡开发水电导致老挝雨季水电产出大,由于送出问题,售电价格低,而旱季有需要高价从邻国进行购电的局面,水光互补,成了老挝解决水电季节性差异的重要方式。
一、老挝电源结构及用电量现状截至2018年底,老挝电源装机容量约7330MW,年发电量约为369.35亿kWh。
其中:水电装机容量5277MW,占比约72%,2018年发电量249亿kWh,水电平均利用小时4718小时;火电装机容量2052MW,占比约27%,2018年发电量120亿kWh,火电平均利用小时5853小时;新能源装机不足1%。
2010年至2018年,老挝全国最大负荷已由428MW增长至954MW,年均增长率约为15%。
2020年增长至1250MW。
经分析预测,老挝2021年最大负荷将达到1336MW,2025年最大负荷将达到1947MW,2030年最大负荷将达到2811MW,电量需求达到147亿千瓦时。
老挝地区最大负荷预测结果(详见表1)。
截至目前,老挝拥有67座已投入商业运营发电厂(1MW及以上)。
2018年,总装机中有近35%(2520MW)的电力在本国消纳,另近65%的电力外送泰国、越南等邻国,老挝电力消纳以跨国送出为主(如表2所示)。
二、万象地区电力消纳情况及发展规划万象地区是老挝的负荷中心,电网用电量和负荷地区间分布存在较明显的不平衡,占老挝全国最大负荷的一半左右。

关键词:老挝;水电开发;开发成效中图分类号:TV742 文献标识码:A 文章编号:2096-6164(2020)34-0105-02和老挝其他资源相比,老挝水资源更加丰富,为国家经济发展提供了重要的支撑,而水电开发事业势必会对周围水体造成影响,老挝临近湄公河,老挝国内的水电开发事业给湄公河水环境带来影响的可能性极大,这也正是老挝水电开发事业为何成为国际关注热点的原因之一。
1 老挝水电站开发情况老挝成立民主共和国,国家经济发展水平落后,人民生活贫困,导致老挝政府没有充足的资源和能力开展水电开发。
1981年,老挝经济发展进步,老挝政府开始对外开放,并且认识到国内水资源的优势,将水电方面的建设作为吸引外资的主要途径。
老挝南欧江流域一期水电站项目和老挝南欧江流域二期水电站项目相继在2012年、2016年动工,并在2016年、2021年完成。
1.1 老挝南欧江流域一期水电站项目建设项目(1)南欧江二级水电站。
该水电站位于老挝人民民主共和国中北部琅勃拉邦省境内,距中国昆明市公路里程919 km,该水电站属于二等大型工程,以发电为主,总库容1.217×108 m³。
(2)南欧江五级水电站。
位于老挝丰沙里省境内,距中国昆明市公路里程943 km,该水电站为二等工程,以发电为主,调节库容1.42×108 m3。
(3)南欧江六级电站。
老挝电力业的发展及相关法律制度探析

老挝电力业的发展及相关法律制度探析摘要:近年来,随着老挝政府不断强化革新开放政策,扩大对外合作,外资企业纷纷进入老挝寻找投资商机,其中水电资源开发已成为外国投资的重点领域之一。
开发电力资源既可以满足经济发展及人民生活对电力的需求,同时,电力开发的本身也能增加投资,为经济增长做贡献,并与老挝政府实施的“以资源换现金”的战略相吻合,因而得到高度重视,使老挝的电力业在近年发展迅速,值得关注。
老挝国会于1997年制定的《电力法》依然是目前调整电力投资、贸易的最高规范性法律文件,鉴于我国是老挝最大的外国电力投资者的现实,我们有必要对老挝的电力发展及其法律制度做深入研究,以便有利于我国企业在老挝的电力投资取得更好效果。
关键词:老挝;电力发展;法律制度一、老挝近年来电力业的发展近年来,随着老挝政府不断强化革新开放政策,扩大对外合作,外资企业纷纷进入老挝寻找投资商机,其中水电资源开发已成为外国投资的重点领域之一。
经电力勘察设计部门勘查,老挝境内水电资源理论蕴藏总量约为3000万千瓦,技术可开发总量为2347万千瓦,其中湄公河干流1225万千瓦(国际界河按1/2分摊水资源)约占全国技术可开发量的522%,湄公河支流及其他支流1122万千瓦,约占全国技术可开发量的473%。
老挝政府高度重视本国水电资源开发和利用,提出要将老挝建成“中南半岛蓄电池”的目标,为摆脱国家贫困和逐步实现工业化和现代化提供战略依托。
在第六个五年经济社会发展计划(2006—2010年)期间,老挝政府大力招商引资开发本国水电资源,将境内50多个5万千瓦装机容量以上可开发水电站项目悉数批给国内外公司,但截至目前大部分项目还未进入实际开发阶段。
据老方统计,已投入运营的水电站有12座,总装机容量187万千瓦,仅占全国技术可开发量的8%。
目前在建项目有7个,总装机容量282万千瓦;有15个项目已签署开发协议,装机容量5852万千瓦;有47个项目已签署合作备忘录,装机容量1270万千瓦。

Share of the energy consumption of each category in the whole country is shown in the Table 1.7-1. In order to evaluate the Socio-Economic development in the country which related with to energy consumption, the energy consumption by consumer types were re-classified into four (4) categories: Residential, Industry, Agriculture and Service (Enterprises, Entertainment, Government Office, and Embassies). The details are shown in the Table 1.5-3, Appendix 1, and Figure 1.7-1 and 1.7-2 below.-100,000,000200,000,000300,000,000400,000,000500,000,000600,000,000700,000,000800,000,000900,000,000200120022003200420052006200720082009k W hResidential ServiceFigure 1.7-1: Historical trend of energy consumption by consumer types.Figure 1.7-1 indicated that the past energy consumption by consumer types in period 2001-2009 for whole country, the Residential and Agriculture categories were increased normally while Industrial and Service categories were dramatically increased in period 2006-2009 (for Industrial category) and 2007-2009 (for Service category) and the growth rate of these categories will continuously increase. With the increasing of energy consumption for these categories, it can be explained that the social economic development in the country is being improved.Figure 1.7-2: Share of energy consumption by consumer types.Figure 1.7-2 is indicated that the share of energy consumption by consumer types in period 2001-2009 for the whole country. The share of the Residential and Agriculture categories were decreased while share of the Industry and Service categories were continuously increased. That means the country is going toward the industrialized country step by step.The numbers of customers by category for whole country are shown in the Table 1.7-1 and numbers of customers by Residential and non-residential categories are shown in the Table 1.7-2, Appendix 1.100,000200,000300,000400,000500,000600,000700,000800,000200120022003200420052006200720082009Figure 1.7-3: Total number of consumers by Residential and non-Residential categories.Figure 1.7-3 indicated that the total numbers of consumers by Residential and Non-Residential categories have been increased year by year to fulfill the government target on the rural electrification and socio-economic development plans.1.8 Gross Power Generation and Power Export/ImportThe gross power generation, power export/import of the country during 2001-2009 is tabulated in Table 1.8-1. The average growth rate of generation, import and export in the period 2001-2009 were 1-27%, 3-61% and 3-51% respectively. Almost 100% of total energy is generated by hydropower plants namely: Nam Ngum 1 (155MW), Nam Mang 3 (40MW), Nam Leuk (60MW), Xeset 1 (45MW), Xeset 2 (76MW), small hydropower plants and other sources. The details are shown in Table 1.8-1, Appendix 1.2004006008001,0001,2001,4001,6001,8002,000200120022003200420052006200720082009G W h /Y e a rImport Export GenerationFigure 1.8-1: Production, Import and Export in the country.Figure 1.8-1 indicated that the average generation in period 2001-2009 was approximately 1,560 GWh p.a. while trend of Export energy was reduced and the Import energy from neighboring countries was increased 182 GWh (2001), 819 GWh (2009). That means the demand of electricity in the country is high requirement while supply requirement was imbalance.。
