Energy-saving emission reduction policies on the economy of our country
Energy-saving emission reduction policies by controlling the high energy consumption and high pollution industry growth, and promote China’s economic growth to resource conservation, environmental clean-direction changes. Services with low energy consumption, pollution, light, etc., will be more respected, long-term prospects for energy conservation policy is to uphold our long-term strategic choice will have far-reaching economic impact.
High energy consumption and high pollution industry will face major structural adjustment
According to the National Statistics Bureau estimates, thermal power, steel, chemicals, building materials, nonferrous metals, petroleum processing and coking and other six high energy consumption and high pollution industry, increase the value of our scale industrial added value accounted for 33% of consumption of electricity for industrial use 64% of electricity consumption, energy consumption accounts for 70% of industrial energy consumption. High energy consumption and high pollution industries are the focus of regulation of energy saving policy areas, with the implementation of energy saving policies, high energy consumption and high pollution industry faces at least three effects:First, it faced a risk of backward production capacity.
High energy consumption and high pollution industries behind high proportion of production accounted for the industry, such as the end of 2005, iron, cement, thermal power industry accounted for backward production capacity of the industry ratio of 24%, respectively, 19%, 13%, backward production capacity, such as technical innovation can not be achieved New Project access standards, will be eliminated directly. Can be eliminated if a large number of backward production, distribution and structure of the industry will be restructured.
The second is to set off mergers and acquisitions wave.Mainly high-pollution industries with high energy consumption will accelerate mergers and acquisitions, rapid increase in industry concentration, industry leaders face some development opportunities. “Steel Industry Development Policy” to support and encourage qualified large enterprise groups across regions of the joint reorganization plan by 2010, China will form a 2 to 3 30 million tons level, several million tons of international competitiveness large iron and steel enterprise groups, the top 10 domestic steel enterprises steel production group the proportion of total output above 50%, and the present iron and steel industry in China is about 30% concentration. In recent years, China’s steel industry mergers and acquisitions significantly accelerated, and has a series of actions.
Third, approved new capacity more difficult.China’s high energy consumption and high pollution industry standard access to the basic reference to new projects within the international advanced level in the industry, the strength is not strong in the enterprise is more difficult to access standards, the limited scale of their development, while the stronger large-scale enterprises through new high standards projects to further enhance the level of technical equipment. In fact because the state control of high energy consumption and high pollution industry, simply more difficult to get new projects approved, in accordance with the merger and reorganization of the State Development and Reform Commission’s thinking, in order to make high-pollution industries with high energy capacity will not increase substantially, the new projects and eliminate backward production capacity, mergers and acquisitions are often simultaneously.
Energy saving engineering and rapid development of environmental protection equipment industry will China’s energy-intensive products with high energy consumption of high polluting industries, with international advanced level prevailing large gap, in which chemical, cement, plate glass, and petrochemical industry average higher than the international advanced level in more than 40%, saving potential larger. “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, through the ten key energy conservation projects in China, will save 240 million tons of coal to achieve economic benefits are very obvious, while promoting the rapid development of energy-saving equipment industry.
According to “renewable energy and long-term development plan”, the next 15 years, renewable energy accounts for the proportion of the country’s total energy consumption will double, in which additional capacity increase of 156% water to 300 million kilowatts installed capacity will be other renewable energy sources 3 times more than the sum, is the most important renewable energy; wind, solar and biomass power generation to achieve leapfrog development, an increase of about 15 times.
Of the more intense competition for energy and resources.China’s oil consumption from 1993 began to gap, gap year and increased dependence on imports in 2006 up to 47% and 50% level close to the redline. China’s steel, cement, non-ferrous metal product output in the world, iron ore, bauxite, copper ore and other resources, larger class of demand for raw materials. China is the world’s largest iron ore importer, China’s steel industry used more than 50% of iron ore from imports, the amount of the increase in global iron ore more than 90% for China’s consumption of iron ore in China in 2007 imports 383 million tons, imports exceeded 40 billion U.S. dollars.With the energy, resource-based product prices rise, countries on energy and the increasingly fierce competition for resources, the domestic enterprises to “go” has become the country’s strategic direction. Iron ore prices in 2005 rose 71.5% over the previous year, in 2006, up 19%, up 9.5% in 2007, up 65% in 2008. China’s large-scale iron and steel enterprises “going out” is inevitable.
Will promote China’s economic growth mode.China’s total energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are listed second in the world, high energy consumption and heavy pollution. Energy-saving emission reduction policies by controlling the high energy consumption and high pollution industry growth, and promote China’s economic growth to resource conservation, environmental clean-direction changes. Services with low energy consumption, pollution, light, etc., will be more respected, long-term prospects.
In most countries, the proportion of service sector GDP, the average value of 67% of more than 70% of the developed countries, India and Brazil are developing countries this percentage is also higher than 50% of the total output value of China’s 2007 GDP share of services sector alone 39.1%, the proportion is significantly lower. “The State Council on Accelerating the Development of Service Industry Opinions” put forward the “Eleventh Five-Year” period of the main objectives of service development to 2010, value added services, the proportion of GDP than in 2005 increased 3 percentage points, services the proportion of employees employed in the entire society more than 4 percentage points in 2005 to improve the service trade volume reached 400 billion U.S. dollars; qualified cities to form a service economy industrial structure.
