Abstract：Carbon Capture,Utilization and Storage(CCUS)is a pivotal technology for enabling the low-carbon transition and upgrading of the coal-fired power industry.The advent of new productive forces in coal power CCUS can strongly support the high-quality development of the energy sector.This paper comprehensively assesses the current development status of these new productive forces from three dimensions:technological innovation,innovation in the allocation of production factors,and institutional mechanism innovation,thereby proposing integrated development pathways and strategies.The study reveals that in terms of technological innovation,it is imperative to accelerate the development of deeply energy-saving optimized integration technologies and novel absorbents for carbon capture-coupled power generation systems.Additionally,expediting the research and development of long-distance,high-pressure,low-temperature,and ultra-supercritical carbon dioxide(CO2)transportation technologies is crucial.Promoting the advancement of technologies such as CO2-derived synthetic fuels and new catalysts will form the core driving force of new productive forces.In terms of innovation in production factor allocation,utilizing digital technologies to optimize the allocation of production materials,exploring diversified financing models to optimize financial capital allocation,and establishing a multidisciplinary talent cultivation system to optimize human capital allocation are essential.These measures aim to shape new means of labor,objects of labor,and laborers,thereby achieving efficient allocation of production factors.Regarding institutional mechanism innovation,it is necessary to construct a comprehensive policy system for coal power CCUS that encompasses various policy directions-including industrial support,fiscal and financial policies,and market mechanisms.This will facilitate the formation of new production relations that align with the new productive forces.The research outcomes offer significant decision-making reference value for promoting the high-quality development of coal power CCUS technology.
