西气东输天然气需求侧管理探索

Demand Side Management for Gas Supply from West-to-East Gas Pipeline Project

需求侧管理最早应用于电力系统,目的是利用现有的电力容量来缓解电力供需矛盾。随着天然气市场的快速发展,西气东输上游气田产能、管道输送能力、下游市场需求三者之间的矛盾日益突出,因此西气东输公司将天然气需求侧管理提上议事日程,针对可中断用户和不可中断用户享受不同价格的情况采取了不同的管理策略,并与下游用户共同协商解决供用气缺口。通过实施天然气需求侧管理,有针对性地控制了下游用户的天然气市场规模,优化了其用气结构,保证了西气东输管道的平稳运行和经济效益最优。

Demand side management firstly applied for electricity system. The aim is to use the existing capacity of electricity to ease supply and demand of electricity contradictions. With the rapid development of natural gas market, gas upstream production,the transmission capacity and downstream market demand have increasingly contradictions. Natural gas demand side management will be put on the agenda by company of West-to-East Natural Gas Pipeline Project. Different users enjoy different prices, so companies will take different management strategy. Moreover companies will consult the settlement for the use of gas gap with downstream users. Through natural gas demand side management, it took control of the downstream users of natural gas market size, optimized the structure, ensured the smooth operation of gas pipelines and economic basis.
