Specifically: First, strengthen planning guidance and systematic planning. reports to the State Council for the issuance of the "14th Five-Year Plan for Modern Logistics Development", focusing on building a modern logistics system that adapts supply and demand, connects internally and externally, safe and efficient, smart and green, and makes systematic arrangements for the modern logistics development work in the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. This is the first national five-year plan in the field of modern logistics in my country and is of great milestone significance. The second is to accelerate the construction of major logistics facilities networks. steadily promotes the construction of major logistics infrastructure networks such as national logistics hubs, national backbone cold chain logistics bases, and national demonstration logistics parks. It systematically integrates existing logistics resources, promotes the construction of a "channel + hub + network" modern logistics operation system, and improves the scale, network, organization and intensive development level of modern logistics. Up to now, a total of 4 batches of 95 national logistics hubs, 2 batches of 41 national backbone cold chain logistics bases, and 3 batches of 78 national demonstration logistics park construction lists have been released. The third is to increase efforts to launch a "combination punch" of investment policies. implements the State Council’s deployment on promoting effective investment, arranges about 10 billion yuan of investment within the central budget, supports the construction of basic, public and quasi-public logistics infrastructure with large investment scale, long construction cycle and low return level, and drives social capital to increase investment. The construction of qualified logistics infrastructure is supported through policy-based development financial tools, with the actual investment amount exceeding 24 billion yuan, effectively solving the problem of insufficient project capital. These include some major logistics infrastructure projects with large investment scale and strong driving effect. For example, the total investment of Guangzhou Eastern Road and Rail Transport Hub Project exceeds 45 billion yuan, and the support amount of policy-based development financial instruments exceeds 4.4 billion yuan, effectively leveraging the relevant supporting financing , effectively promoting the precise expansion of effective investment in the modern logistics field. In addition, last year, two warehousing and logistics projects were recommended to carry out pilot projects of real estate investment trust funds (REITs) in the field of infrastructure, achieving good results. On this basis, we have increased our efforts this year to guide relevant parties to do a good job in project reserves and application. In the next step, we will actively recommend projects that meet the conditions into the pilot scope.

Especially in the face of the impact of the epidemic on the logistics system, since this year, all relevant parties have implemented the requirements of "preventing the epidemic, stabilizing the economy, and safe development". Under the coordinated deployment of the State Council's logistics and smooth operation Leading Group, they have introduced policy measures such as "procurement, going, chasing" + closed-loop management, key material passes, truck drivers and key enterprises, and made every effort to ensure the smooth and orderly operation of transportation and logistics; deploy major logistics infrastructure such as national logistics hubs to ensure the supply of production and living materials and the stability of the industrial chain and supply chain; organize self-inspection and self-inspection for the shutdown and closure of expressway toll stations and service areas, port terminals, and waterway locks, and organize self-inspection and self-inspection for the shutdown and closure of expressway toll stations and service areas, port terminals, and waterway locks.

Question: As northern regions enters the winter heating season one after another, energy demand has risen sharply. Affected by various factors, the international energy supply situation is more severe and complex, and energy prices are constantly rising. In the peak winter, energy supply and price stabilization faces certain risks and challenges. What do you think about the current situation of ensuring energy supply and stabilizing prices? Can the people’s warm winter be effectively guaranteed?

Answer: As you said, the international energy supply situation has been severe and complex since the beginning of this year, and the energy prices have remained high, which has adversely affected the peak winter energy supply and price stability. Faced with these difficulties and challenges, the National Development and Reform Commission, together with all relevant parties, conscientiously implemented the decisions and deployments of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, gave full play to the role of the inter-ministerial coordination mechanism for coal, electricity, oil and gas transportation guarantee work, made every effort to strengthen overall coordination, and did a good job in all aspects in advance, so as to promote the work of ensuring energy supply and stabilizing prices to achieve significant results. First, coal production is growing rapidly. html From 61 to November, the national raw coal production increased by 9.7% year-on-year. The average daily coal production has remained high since the heating season, laying a solid foundation for energy supply. The second is that the power supply capacity continues to improve. As of the end of October, the total installed capacity of power generation in the country reached 2.5 billion kilowatts, an increase of 8.3% year-on-year; among which, the total installed capacity of renewable energy power generation such as hydropower, wind power, photovoltaics, etc. reached 1.12 billion kilowatts. In the first three quarters, new installed capacity of renewable energy accounted for 78.8% of the new installed capacity of new power generation in the country. Third, oil and gas production has grown steadily. html From November to November, the national crude oil production was 188 million tons, an increase of 3.0% year-on-year; the natural gas production was 197.4 billion cubic meters, an increase of 6.4%.

Overall, through the joint efforts of all parties, the national energy supply and demand has been generally stable and orderly, and the people can be effectively guaranteed for the warm winter. At present, the national unified power plant stocks have more than 176 million tons of coal, and has increased significantly year-on-year compared with , and the supply of electricity and natural gas is also relatively sufficient. Recently, the spot quotation of thermal coal traders in Beifang Port has dropped significantly compared with the previous period. On December 14, the LNG transaction price of Shanghai Petroleum and Natural Gas Trading Center was about 5.6 yuan/cubic meter. During the same period, the spot price of international Northeast Asia region was equivalent to RMB 10.1 yuan/cubic meter, and the domestic spot trading price was far lower than the international level. In the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will work with relevant parties to continue to deepen the construction of the energy production, supply, storage and sales system, and do a solid and detailed job in warm and supply.

First, ensure energy security and supply. further taps the potential for energy expansion and production in coal mines, guides coal-producing provinces and regions and coal production enterprises to maintain stable production while ensuring safety, and ensure stable coal supply. Strengthen the management of unplanned thermal power outages and impeded output, optimize the capacity to maintain peak capacity for hydropower dispatching, and ensure peak power supply. Organize major oil and gas enterprises to produce safely and at full capacity, and increase the production and supply of unconventional gases such as coal-to-gas, coalbed methane, , etc. Promote diversified and stable energy imports and ensure energy supply.

The second is to ensure that the people spend the winter warmly. improves the comprehensive emergency dispatch mechanism that complements coal, natural gas and electricity, strengthens dispatching arrangements, and strives to improve the peak energy capacity.

Do a good job in keeping warm and supplying in key areas and key periods, closely monitor the inventory of heating enterprises in Northeast China, and strengthen railway transportation guarantees; make good use of gas storage, strictly fulfill contracts, and ensure the supply of gas for people's livelihood in key areas such as Beijing and Hebei; and ensure energy supply during key periods such as New Year's Day and Spring Festival.

The third is to ensure the energy consumption needs of economic and social development. organizes the signing and fulfillment of medium- and long-term contracts for power coal and electricity, guides and urges supply and demand enterprises to speed up the connection between resources and sign contracts, and effectively ensures the stable supply of coal and electricity this winter and next spring. Maintain full and stable nuclear power generation, promote the multiple generation and use of wind power and photovoltaic power generation, make good use of cross-provincial and cross-regional transmission channels, and achieve mutual assistance between surplus and shortage, and complementary peaks and valleys. Take multiple measures to effectively ensure the rational energy use needs of economic and social development.

Question: New Year’s Day and Spring Festival are approaching. What are the considerations of the National Development and Reform Commission in maintaining the stability of consumer goods prices?

Answer: New Year's Day and Spring Festival are important festivals in my country and also the peak season for residents' consumption. It is particularly important to ensure the supply and price stability of important livelihood commodities. In order to ensure that important livelihood commodities are sufficient and stable during the "two festivals", the National Development and Reform Commission has made a series of arrangements and deployments in advance. First, strengthen monitoring and early warning. closely monitors the operation and price changes of important livelihood commodities during the "two festivals", strengthens market monitoring of key areas and key varieties, and once potential problems are found, timely warnings and research and propose solutions. The second is to strengthen the mayor's responsibility system of the "vegetable basket". gives full play to the main role of local governments in ensuring supply and stabilizing prices, guide local governments to strengthen production and sales connection, enrich grain and oil reserves, make emergency plans, and promptly and properly coordinate and resolve problems in the operation of important livelihood commodity markets during the "two festivals". The third is to carefully plan and carry out reserve adjustment. releases government pork reserves in a timely manner and increases its investment efforts during important periods such as the "two festivals". Guide local governments to make good stockpiles of grain and oil reserves and winter and spring vegetables in the north, and put them on the market if necessary. Fourth, increase market supervision. Relevant departments and localities strengthen market price inspections and inspections. Once illegal acts such as fabricating and distributing price increase information, price gouging, hoarding, and colluding with each other to manipulate market prices are discovered, they will be investigated and dealt with in a timely and serious manner to maintain normal market order. Fifth, we must ensure the bottom line of people's livelihood. urges and guides all localities to conscientiously implement the requirements of phased adjustment of price subsidy linkage mechanism, expand the scope of guarantee, reduce the start-up conditions, increase subsidies to people in need, and encourage places with conditions to appropriately increase the issuance standards and issue one-time subsidies for holidays. It should be noted that in order to ensure that the relevant work deployment is implemented in place, a special working team has been set up and a dedicated person has been arranged to provide docking guidance.

Judging from the current scheduling of work in various places, major and medium-sized cities have generally formulated emergency plans for ensuring supply and stabilizing prices. Finished grain and oil, pork, northern winter and spring vegetables are relatively sufficient, and the foundation for ensuring supply and stabilizing prices is solid. Recently, the supply of important livelihood commodities has been abundant, the prices of small-packaged grain and oil have continued to remain basically stable, and the prices of vegetables, pork and eggs have fallen to varying degrees.

In the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will do a good job in ensuring the supply and price stability of important livelihood commodities during the "two festivals" period in accordance with the established deployment, so as to better ensure the basic lives of people in need.
