Financial Leverage Boosts Industrial Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction

Just after entering 2008, it was reported that 11 Ningxia companies, including Fengyou Chemical Co., Ltd. and Qingtongxia Huieng Thermal Power Generation Co., Ltd., have received 85.50 million yuan in energy-saving technological transformation funds from the central government. This is the first batch of enterprises in Ningxia to benefit from the implementation of the policy of “substituting for subsidies”.
In order to achieve the binding targets set for energy conservation and emission reduction during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, starting from August 2007, the central government began to implement the policy of “substituting for subsidies” for the ten key energy-saving technological transformation projects, each saving 1 ton. The standard coal central finance will give enterprises 200 yuan to 250 yuan.
2008 is a crucial year for fulfilling the binding targets for energy conservation and emission reduction in the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period. According to the recent deployment of the Central Economic Work Conference, the completion of energy saving and emission reduction targets will be used as an “important criterion for examining the effectiveness of economic development”, which will become a “hard bar” for assessing the level of local cadres' governance.
At present, China's oil and chemical industry still focuses on the production of basic raw material products. The proportion of fine chemical industry is small, and it is entering the period of heavy chemical industry, with high energy consumption and large pollutant discharge. At the same time, the average annual growth rate of the petroleum and chemical industries in recent years is above 20%. With such an industrial structure and such a speed of development, the tasks facing the goal of accomplishing energy conservation and emission reduction are very arduous. The chemical industry itself alone cannot achieve rapid results. It is fundamentally inseparable from the support of the country’s macroeconomic policies and includes the country. The establishment of a multi-investment system including financial investment.
Relevant experts pointed out that from the perspective of public finances, energy conservation and emission reduction should be an important part of public financial support, because under the market conditions, enterprises with the goal of maximizing profit are not willing to increase investment in energy conservation and emission reduction, and they need the government’s Interventions to make up for market deficiencies.
In 2007, the central government allocated a total of 23.5 billion yuan to support energy-saving and emission reduction. At the same time, local financial support for energy conservation and emission reduction has also increased. In 2008, the Minister of Finance Xie Xuren has made it clear that “finance will also increase investment in energy conservation and emission reduction.” At the same time, in the new year, the government will also play a more leading role in energy conservation and emission reduction, which will highlight performance. Financial support for energy-saving technological transformation projects for enterprises. This really made the oil and chemical industry see hope.
The use of limited funds to the key links that need to be resolved to maximize their effectiveness. The promotion and application of energy-saving technologies is currently the most pressing task. China's current key enterprise product energy consumption is 20% to 40% higher than the international advanced level. Some major energy-saving technology applications are also very limited. The implementation of energy-saving technological transformation of enterprises is an effective measure to achieve energy-saving emission reduction targets.
It is understood that in 2007 China has awarded incentives for 700 energy-saving technological transformation projects for enterprises, and will continue to intensify efforts in 2008. It is expected that 130 million tons of standard coal will be saved during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period. Zhang Shaochun, deputy finance minister, said: "This will fundamentally change the situation where China's key energy products are over-consumed and there are not enough energy-saving technologies."
In addition, the fiscal year 2008 will also increase support for the construction of sewage pipe networks and pollution emission reduction monitoring systems in the central and western regions, accelerate the establishment of new mechanisms for promoting energy conservation and emission reductions, and establish an outdated production capacity withdrawal mechanism. Local governments must arrange funds to eliminate backward production capacity. The central government will also give appropriate subsidies and incentives to underdeveloped areas, and increase governance investment in the "Three Rivers and Three Lakes" and Songhua River and other key river basins.
“In 2008, we will further improve the fiscal and taxation policies that encourage energy conservation and emission reduction.” Xie Xuren introduced a regular reduction or exemption of corporate income tax policies for eligible energy-saving and environmental protection projects and investment in special equipment, and investment in energy-saving and emission-reducing equipment. Deductions, improve the preferential policies for the comprehensive utilization of waste materials and resources, and improve the fiscal and taxation policies that support the development of new energy and renewable energy.
It can be expected that in 2008, a series of incentive policies that are conducive to energy-saving and emission-reduction, such as prices, fiscal and taxation, and finance, are expected to be introduced and implemented. The efforts to eliminate backward production capacity in key industries and key industries, including the chemical industry, will be further increased. The ecological compensation mechanism for resource development will also be continuously improved. All these will play an important role in promoting energy-saving and emission reduction in the chemical industry.
