Clean heating in winter in the northern region is related to the warmth of the masses in the northern region and whether the haze days can be reduced. It is an important part of the revolution in energy production and consumption and the revolution in rural lifestyles. However, affected by factors such as the level of economic development, the density of residents, and the regional electricity load, some areas around cities, urban-rural junctions, and rural areas have not yet been able to achieve central heating, and a large number of scattered coal-fired small boilers and small stoves are used for heating. This heating method often uses scattered coal with low price but high sulfur content, which has poor heating effect and huge total air pollutant emissions.

Promoting clean heating in winter in northern China is related to people's livelihood and green development. In recent years, the state has held many research activities on the causes of haze and the adjustment of energy structure, and paid more attention to the improvement of atmospheric environmental quality. During this year's national conference, in order to solve the problem of coal-fired pollution, the Renewable Energy Office put forward a proposal to use bioenergy heating to improve air quality in the heating season, which has received the attention of relevant departments. Especially in the last six months, due to the release of environmental protection heating requirements, local governments to promote clean heating as the theme of this year's "No. 1 proposal" and to supervise, methanol fuel heating work is imminent.

With the increasing pressure on the environment, the demand for clean energy is unstoppable, and methanol fuel heating is facing a good situation. With the continuous progress of science and technology, methanol fuel technology continues to develop, with the gradual improvement of special heating equipment, China's methanol new fuel heating technology and operation mode is basically mature.

Bio-methanol fuel heating has the characteristics of green, low-carbon and environmental protection. It is an effective way to control regional coal-fired pollution and is also a widely promoted measure in developed countries. Although the prospects are promising, the bio-methanol fuel heating in its infancy still faces problems in policies, standards, and industrial systems. The release of the notice on the construction of demonstration projects for clean heating in methanol fuel co-production areas will further explore the way for biofuel heating, and methanol fuel heating is expected to become a "new force" for clean heating ".
