On April 24, 2026, the State Council Executive Meeting for the first time explicitly included marine energy in the scope of emerging marine industries, making important arrangements for cultivating emerging industrial clusters and building a modern marine industrial system. This is a key measure for the country to thoroughly implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important instructions on "strengthening the nation through the sea" and "five more focuses" during the 15th Five-Year Plan period. It is a strategic arrangement for coordinating the development of the marine economy, ensuring national energy security, and promoting green and low-carbon transformation. It marks a new stage in my country's marine energy industry, moving from initial scale to comprehensive quality improvement, systemic leapfrogging, and cluster development, providing direction, guidance, and strong impetus for the high-quality development of marine energy during the 15th Five-Year Plan period.
