CURRENT STATE AND SPECIFIC FEATURES OF THE ENERGY MARKET IN JIANGXI PROVINCE
УДК 338.465:621.31 (.510)
Abstract
This article explores the development characteristics of the energy sector in Jiangxi Province (PRC) in the context of limited fossil fuel resources and an active transition to renewable energy sources (RES). The structure of the region's energy balance, the main generation directions (hydropower, solar, and wind energy), and the role of the national corporation State Grid in power supply are analyzed. Special attention is given to projects implemented under the national “dual carbon control” policy aimed at achieving carbon neutrality. The study identifies key challenges, including technological backwardness of some infrastructure, weak integration of RES into the power system, insufficient R&D funding, and uneven electrification between urban and rural areas. The article also outlines the prospects for the industry's development, including the introduction of smart grids, construction of experimental energy facilities, and increased investment activity.
