Energy Saving and Consumption Reduction and the Fundamental Problems Facing New-type Industrialization

China's “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” requires that the energy consumption per unit of GDP be reduced by 20% in 2010. However, in 2006, the situation of energy saving, emission reduction and emission reduction across the country was generally unsatisfactory, which formed a powerful force for the completion of the second half of the 11th Five-Year Plan. pressure. These problems are highlighted by the fact that energy-saving and emission-reduction work does not meet the requirements of binding indicators, the progress of industrial restructuring is slow, structural pollution is a serious problem, and environmental governance capacity is insufficient. How to vigorously promote energy saving and consumption reduction and speed up the process of new industrialization, we must explore the fundamental solution to the problem.
I. Performance Outlook and Administrative Assessment Indicator System As an improvement, China's national quantitative economic indicators are concentrated on economic growth, energy conservation, and consumption reduction. However, under the premise that the industrial structure dominated by high energy-consuming and highly polluting industries has not been effectively adjusted, the rapid economic growth rate has not only paid a relatively large cost for resources and the environment, but also increased the expected economic growth target. The completion of energy-saving emission reduction targets is difficult. On the one hand, the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” determines that GDP will increase by an average of 7.5% per year. On the other hand, the unit energy consumption of GDP will be reduced by 20%. If the actual growth rate of GDP is calculated to be about 10%, the trend of industrial heavy-duty development will not be controlled. By 2010, the two constraints of energy conservation and emission reduction in the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” will be difficult to achieve.
In 2006, when the energy saving and emission reduction indicators were not completed well, the proportion of the added value of the secondary industry in the country was as high as 48.7%, of which industrial growth exceeded GDP growth, and the growth of high energy consumption and high pollution industries in industrial growth exceeded the overall industrial growth. Since 2007, the growth rate of national heavy industry's added value has been faster than that of light industry, and the growth rate of industrial added value of six major energy-consuming industries such as steel has been faster than that of the same period, and the growth rate of production of major energy-consuming products has accelerated significantly.
In local planning, the growth rate of GDP is higher than the national "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" economic development goals. Many places still pursue high-speed growth as "hard tasks", and energy conservation and environmental protection are treated as "soft tasks." "Increase the growth rate of GDP by layers. In some places, the number of planned indicators is used as an alternative to the effect of energy-saving and emission-reduction work. The true situation of energy-saving and emission reduction is reported, misrepresented, and misrepresented. The reason is that the regulatory mechanism for energy saving and emission reduction is not perfect and the responsibility of the supervisory entity is difficult to implement. And because the specific environmental assessment indicators have not been refined, lack of maneuverability, and the lack of a sound accountability system, the government's environmental responsibility can hardly be implemented.
Therefore, to a certain extent, it can be said that in order to complete the GDP growth index, the completion of the energy-saving emission reduction index has been affected, and the two have formed a pair of contradictions. Relatively speaking, in the evaluation index system of local governments, GDP is still more rigid than the energy-saving emission reduction indicator, and it is more convincing than the performance. According to the requirements of the "good and fast" scientific outlook on development, energy conservation and emission reduction targets should be placed before the GDP index. In other words, the rankings of the two major economic indicators in the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" should be turned over to reflect the "good and quick" requirement. At the same time, to establish energy-saving emission reduction is also the concept of development, otherwise, all levels of governments at all levels will be "development is the absolute principle" or "development is the first factor" reasons to rank energy conservation and emission reduction work after GDP growth, and thus in this A pair of contradictions is incomprehensible, and ultimately it is mainly to complete the GDP index, which leads to the incomplete completion of energy-saving emission reduction targets.
Responsibility for energy conservation and environmental protection must be implemented at all levels of government, and the main leaders, leaders in charge, and department heads must be responsible for the responsibilities of local governments for energy conservation and emission reduction, and the energy conservation and environmental protection indicators in the local government assessment system must be specified. , Establish accountability system and make it operational. It is necessary to formulate a comprehensive evaluation and evaluation index system for regional economic and social development, sign responsibility responsibilities for pollution control at all levels, incorporate results into the evaluation index system for leading cadre achievements, and implement an energy consumption index bulletin system. It is necessary to establish a sound and scientific environmental management system, strive to implement the public participation mechanism, mobilize the enthusiasm of all parties, publish information to the public in a timely manner, strengthen public opinion supervision, and establish a public supervision mechanism.
Of course, economic growth and energy saving, emission reduction and emission reduction are not a natural contradiction. Guangdong Province's “high and low” illustrates this point. As the largest economy province with the largest GDP in the country, energy consumption is the lowest, and Guangdong is still a province with relatively high dependence on energy supply. As the country’s largest economic province, it reflects the “fast” economic development. As the first major energy conservation province, it reflects the “good” economic development. What is even more commendable is that in recent years, Guangdong has developed moderately heavy industries, and the growth rate of heavy industries has been higher than that of light industries. Therefore, it is particularly difficult for Guangdong to achieve “high and low” performance. This shows that Guangdong’s GDP is not based on high energy consumption and high levels. Pollution was bought for the price.
Second, the choice of economic development and industrialization road The so-called new industrialization road is to adhere to the drive of industrialization with information technology, and promote the integration of information technology, industrialization and informatization. This is called the "new type" of the traditional industrialization road of "high input, high consumption, high emission, and low efficiency" of speed and efficiency. The 16th CPC National Congress proposed that the development and reform of China's economy should take a new road to industrialization. Specifically, it is a new type of industrialization with high technological content, good economic returns, low resource consumption, low environmental pollution, and full utilization of human resources. .
The level of industrialization in China has entered the middle stage of development, and developed regions have entered the middle and late stages. According to the traditional industrialization development path, we should enter the stage of heavy chemical industry development, and new industrialization requires the development of information technology. Is heavy and informatization another pair of contradictions? Judging from the direction of "moderately heavy-duty" proposed by Guangdong Province and other places, it is the combination of heavy-duty and informatization.
The key is in the process of industrial restructuring. On the one hand, a lot of heavy-duty projects have been added. On the other hand, they have not made up their minds to eliminate outdated high-energy-consuming industries. In addition to grasping the hard-earned economic growth and catching energy saving and reducing consumption, the situation in China's elimination of backward production capacity is lagging behind. Some localities and industries, for the sake of local interests and immediate interests, have imposed a ban on backward production capacity, processes, technologies, and equipment that the country should eliminate, not only failing to withdraw the backward production capacity that should be eliminated from the market, but also adding new backward production. ability. On the other hand, we must realize that the environmental governance capacity building is seriously inadequate, and the fundamental factor that affects the construction of water pollution treatment, desulfurization, and urban waste treatment facilities is that the benefits are not obvious, resulting in a serious shortage of input. The sewage treatment charges are low, the construction and operation costs of desulfurization facilities are generally higher than the desulfurization price, the collection rate of urban waste charges is generally not high, and so on, which seriously affects the enthusiasm of local governments in energy conservation and emission reduction. In some places, sewage treatment is perfunctory or even just to cope with inspections. Most industrial energy-using equipment does not have energy-efficiency standards, and the national energy-saving standards have overtaken existing technologies and reflect less energy-saving requirements in the future.
From the point of view of industrialization development in various countries, industry is the industry with the largest energy consumption and the largest energy-saving potential. For example, industrial energy consumption in Guangzhou accounts for 60% of the city's total. At the same time, energy consumption is an important part of the company's production costs, and it is an important indicator of green products in the international market, which greatly affects the competitiveness of products. Promoting energy efficiency and efficiency has become the inherent requirement and survival of the company's own development. On the one hand, if companies do not reduce costs and increase profits through energy conservation and consumption reduction, their own competitive advantages will be weakened, market expansion will be affected, and companies will also be affected. The survival and development. On the other hand, enterprises can only achieve rapid and good development by advancing energy conservation and consumption reduction and reducing environmental pollution. To this end, in recent years, Guangzhou has eliminated a group of enterprises that have consumed large amounts of energy, output is low, pollution is heavy, and production capacity is lagging behind. In addition, a total of 147 industrial enterprises have been closed, discontinued, and relocated since the system project of “retreat two by three” was fully launched. . In order to promote the new industrialization, Guangzhou has adopted eight strategic measures: First, to promote the optimization of industrial structure; Second, to promote the transformation of industrial energy-saving technologies; Third, to promote the triple supply of thermal power; Fourth, to promote the replacement of new energy; Fifth, to promote energy-saving management The sixth model is to promote energy-saving and emission-reduction work of key energy-consuming enterprises; seventh is to promote circular economy pilot cities; and eighth is to promote multi-level energy-saving propaganda.
Guangdong, which entered the middle and late industrialization period, has in recent years increased the development of moderately heavy industries. However, it mainly concentrates on high-efficiency and low-energy-consumption industries such as electronic information industry, electrical machinery manufacturing, and pharmaceutical industries. Ceramics, printing and dyeing, and papermaking The proportion of high energy-consuming industries in the industry is not significant. Since 2007, Guangdong Province has put forward six key tasks: saving energy, saving water, saving and intensive land use, saving raw materials, comprehensive utilization of resources, and developing a recycling economy. Moreover, Guangdong is introducing or will introduce more energy-saving and consumption-reduction measures, including seven major projects such as saving and replacing oil, green lighting, building energy conservation, government agencies, energy conservation, cogeneration, waste heat utilization, and energy utilization monitoring capabilities. Not long ago, Guangdong once again announced that it shut down the province's 9 million kilowatts of small thermal power units into practical operation.
Obviously, China's current energy saving and emission reduction work has made positive progress, but there is still a big gap from the completion of the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" target. How to correctly understand the situation of energy conservation and emission reduction, accurately explore and grasp the development laws and characteristics of new-type industrialization, and thus scientifically guide energy-saving and emission reduction work have become an important issue for governments and departments at all levels. In actual work, we must seize the main contradiction, carefully analyze its cause, and take effective measures to solve the problem. We must truly implement the scientific concept of development, accelerate industrial restructuring, and control the excessive growth of high-energy-consuming and high-pollution industries. It is necessary to formulate and implement financial, fiscal, tax, and trade policies that are conducive to emission reduction, and to increase pollution control projects such as sewage treatment. Efforts must be made to strictly implement the EIA system, increase environmental enforcement, and investigate and deal with environmental violations.
At present, the greatest potential for energy conservation and emission reduction is structural adjustment. Therefore, on the one hand, we must rationally adjust the industrial structure and product structure, vigorously develop the third industry and high-tech industries with low energy consumption and low emissions, and promote economic growth driven mainly by industrialization and quantitative expansion, and coordinate and promote the three industries. Optimized upgrades lead to change. On the other hand, we must vigorously promote technological progress in energy conservation and emission reduction. It is necessary to regard energy saving and emission reduction as a key area for government investment in science and technology and promoting the industrialization of high technology, vigorously develop circular economy, prioritize support for key energy-saving and emission reduction technology demonstrations with independent intellectual property rights, and adopt multiple methods to accelerate the promotion of energy-efficient emission reduction products. application. Further planning and construction of industrial parks; formulating plans for the industrial layout of the park in accordance with the principles of “industry linkage, scientific layout, and intensive land use”; raising funds through multiple channels to launch infrastructure focusing on water, electricity, roads, and sewerage projects Construction.
Third, the role of values ​​and policies and regulations The concept of achievements in performance is also good, the concept of development is also best reflects the value of the politicians is the industrial policy and related energy-saving emission reduction policies and regulations, these policies and regulations is a value lever, guiding the whole The direction and effect of social energy conservation and emission reduction work.
Judging from the situation in most regions of China, the consumption of raw coal is one of the main reasons for the difficulty in energy conservation and consumption reduction because, from the perspective of price, raw coal is much cheaper than oil and natural gas, and economic growth still mainly depends on raw coal. From the industrial structure point of view, China's industrialization has entered the middle period, some areas are in the middle and late industrialization, and the trend of heavy industrialization is more obvious, while heavy industry is a large energy consumer; from the perspective of industrial policies and related laws and regulations, the effect of energy-saving policies is not apparent. It is also an important reason for the failure to complete the target of GDP energy reduction in many localities. However, all localities are currently in the implementation phase of energy conservation and consumption reduction policies. There is no effective control over energy consumption and policy still needs a process to play its role.
It can be said that the situation facing China's energy-saving and emission reduction work is still severe. Specifically reflected in the implementation of industrial policies is not yet in place, to promote the key enterprises of energy-saving emission reduction, technological progress is not tight, the support for the development of circular economy is not enough; price policy guidance is still weak, can not use price incentives to reduce energy The fiscal and taxation policies are not sufficient, and the necessary tax support policies for the development and promotion of renewable energy and energy saving and environmental protection technology equipment encouraged by the state are lacking; the penalty regulations are unreasonable, and it is difficult for the illegal enterprises to form effective deterrence; The investigation system is still not perfect. Apart from administrative penalties for enterprises that violate environmental laws, it is difficult to investigate the criminal responsibility of their responsible persons. The environmental pollution damage compensation system has not yet been established, which has contributed to the company’s environmental violations. The illegal act is only a one-time punishment, and there is still no clear legal explanation for the continuous punishment of continuous environmental violations by the same company. There is still controversy in practice, and so on. The tendency of these policies and regulations in the final analysis is still a question of values, that is, what kind of development is in line with the fundamental interests of mankind, and what kind of lifestyle is more humane.
We must take effective and effective measures, establish a correct outlook on achievements, development and values, and urge economic development to be “good and fast;” promote economic structure optimization and change in development methods, build a new industrialization system, and establish multiple channels of investment and financing to ensure that Funding for energy conservation and environmental protection project construction; establishing and improving the management system, strengthening work responsibilities; improving the supervision of energy conservation and environmental protection legislation and law enforcement.
Energy conservation and consumption reduction and environmental protection have become an important basis for ensuring the sustainable and stable development of our country’s economy and society, and maintaining ecological balance and environmental quality. With the continuous increase of population, rapid economic development, accelerated urbanization, and gradual improvement of people’s living standards, China’s energy bottlenecks and environmental pollution problems have become more prominent. We must formulate and implement incentive policies to strengthen energy conservation and emission reductions as soon as possible, establish and improve the energy conservation and emission reduction protection mechanism, and promote economic and energy conservation and pollutant emission reduction through fiscal and taxation policies, price policies, and other economic levers to form a combination of incentives and constraints. Energy saving and emission reduction mechanisms. Actively implement, implement and implement the “Energy Conservation Law”, “Water Pollution Prevention Law”, “Cleaner Production Promotion Law”, “Circular Economy Law” and other laws and regulations, so that energy conservation, emission reduction and emission reduction work goes on the track of the rule of law, and gradually establish We will improve the compensation system for environmental pollution damages to ensure that China is truly on the path of new industrialization.
