中国天然气管输价格机制的发展趋势及改革建议

Analysis of transportation pricing mechanisms for natural gas pipelines in China

  • 摘要:
    目的 在“双碳”战略目标的驱动下,天然气在中国能源结构绿色转型进程中的战略地位日益凸显。深入研究天然气管输价格机制,对于推进价格体系市场化改革、实现行业高质量发展具有重要的理论价值与现实指导意义。
    方法 通过系统梳理天然气管输价格机制的历史演变与研究现状,从跨省天然气运输管道、省内短途天然气运输管道、城镇燃气输配管道3种不同经营主体的视角,深入剖析了中国现行天然气管输价格机制的现状,阐明其中存在的问题,提出有针对性的优化路径。
    结果 现行基于物理枢纽划定跨省天然气运输管道价区的方式,未能充分权衡不同行政区域管网建设成本、负荷率、替代能源竞争态势等要素的差异,且中东部价区内各地经济发展水平、能源消费结构悬殊,导致不同地区对管输运价的承受能力呈现显著分化;当前中国仅对跨省天然气运输管道与城镇燃气输配管道的管输费率制定了定价框架,而省内短途天然气运输管道价格目前缺乏统一规则,且各省网融入国家管网的进度不一,不利于天然气的跨区域流动与市场整合;“一部制”价格结构导致管输用户之间存在“交叉补贴”现象,削弱了费率体系的公平性与成本传导功能。为此,提出天然气管输价格机制改革的三阶段优化路径:①统一省级管网定价规则,促进省网互联互通;②优化价区划分方式,按照行政区域划分价区并对中东部价区进行细分;③跨省管道运输的价格结构逐步向两部制过渡。
    结论 研究成果可为完善中国天然气管输价格形成机制、促进能源市场一体化发展提供理论依据与政策参考。

     

    Abstract:
    Objective Driven by the strategic goals of “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality” natural gas increasingly occupies a prominent position in China’s green transformation efforts to optimize its energy mix. Conducting in-depth research on transportation pricing mechanisms for natural gas pipelines is of significant theoretical value and practical importance for advancing market-oriented reforms in the pricing system and achieving high-quality development within the industry.
    Methods This paper systematically reviews the historical evolution of transportation pricing mechanisms for natural gas pipelines and the current status of research in this field. It provides an in-depth analysis of the existing transportation pricing mechanisms for natural gas pipelines in China, examining three types of pipeline operators: inter-provincial natural gas transportation pipelines, intra-provincial short-distance natural gas transportation pipelines, and urban gas transmission and distribution pipelines. Special emphasis is placed on identifying existing problems and proposing a targeted optimization pathway.
    Results The current mode of dividing pricing zones for inter-provincial natural gas pipelines based on physical terminals fails to adequately account for differences in various aspects, such as pipeline network construction costs, load rates, and competition dynamics arising from alternative energy sources across different administrative regions. Additionally, the economic development levels and energy consumption structures significantly vary across regions within the central and eastern pricing zone, resulting in notable disparities in the affordability of pipeline transportation rates. As of now, China has established pricing frameworks for pipeline transportation rates for inter-provincial natural gas pipelines and urban gas distribution and transmission pipelines. However, there is a lack of unified pricing rules for intra-provincial short-distance natural gas transportation pipelines. Furthermore, the progress of integrating provincial networks into the national pipeline network is inconsistent, which hampers the cross-regional flow and market integration of natural gas. The existing pricing structure under the “one-part” system leads to “cross-subsidization” among gas users, undermining both the fairness and cost-transmission function of the rate system. To address these deficiencies, this paper proposes a three-stage optimization pathway for reforming the transportation pricing mechanisms for natural gas pipelines: (1) Unifying pricing rules across intra-provincial networks to promote interconnection; (2) Optimizing the method for dividing pricing zones to align them with administrative regions and subdividing the central and eastern pricing zone; and (3) Gradually transitioning the pricing structure to a two-part system for inter-provincial pipeline transportation.
    Conclusion The research outcomes provide a theoretical foundation and policy reference for improving China’s pricing mechanisms for natural gas pipelines and promoting the integrated development of energy markets.
