my country's low-carbon industry has great potential. Four key areas deserve attention
[Summary of Opinions]
·The "Opinions" propose the "six major" policy systems of finance, taxation, finance, investment, price, market and standards, which are the "four beams and eight pillars" to support comprehensive green transformation.
·The "double carbon" strategy leads the acceleration of the energy revolution, further promotes a new round of industrial revolution, and becomes a powerful driving force and important source for forming new quality productivity and driving high-quality development in the new era. my country's green and low-carbon industries have great potential.
·"One point of deployment, nine points of implementation". All departments and regions must make real and practical measures to implement policies in detail to ensure that implementation is effective.
In Shenzhen, Guangdong, new energy vehicles are charged and discharged in an orderly manner, providing strong support for household electricity; in Guilin, Guangxi, the Lijiang River raft has opened a new chapter in environmental protection with "oil to electricity"; in Kashgar, Xinjiang, photovoltaic panels have merged into a "blue ocean", transforming solar energy into green electricity... These vivid scenes are a vivid portrayal of the active exploration of green transformation across the country.
Since the new era, China has become the country with the most obvious results in green transformation and development. Behind the great achievements, it is due to China's firm confidence and strong determination to do what it says and draw a blueprint to the end.
Recently, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Opinions on Accelerating the Comprehensive Green Transformation of Economic and Social Development"(hereinafter referred to as the "Opinions"), proposing the "six major" policy systems of finance, taxation, finance, investment, prices, markets, and standards, which are the basis for supporting comprehensive green transformation.
Recently, Kang Yanbing, deputy director and researcher of the National Energy Conservation Center of the National Development and Reform Commission, said when visiting the "Micro-Observation of China Economy and Expert Talk" column that the "Opinions" not only establish the overall goal of green transformation in 2030 and 2035, but also cover Specific indicators such as resource output efficiency, the proportion of non-fossil energy consumption, and the scale of energy conservation and environmental protection industries. At the same time, my country has made efforts to achieve a carbon peak before 2030. A solemn declaration to achieve carbon neutrality before 2060. Achieving these goals is not easy. It requires hard work and necessary policy support.
Kang Yanbing said that achieving comprehensive green transformation in economic and social development means supporting economic development and improvement of people's livelihood with high quality with lower energy resource consumption, less carbon emissions, and lower ecological and environmental costs. The "Opinions" spend a lot of space proposing the "six major" policy systems of finance, taxation, finance, investment, prices, markets, and standards, reflecting the important supporting and guaranteeing role of the policy system in comprehensive green transformation.
From a practical perspective, policies to support green development are a common practice in countries around the world. Kang Yanbing said that many countries have adopted policies and measures such as subsidies, interest discounts, and tax credits to provide incentives and support for the development of green and low-carbon industries and clean energy technology products, which is worthy of in-depth research and reference in my country.
The "Opinions" mentioned that new productive forces should be developed according to local conditions and green and low-carbon industries should be vigorously developed.
"'The 'double carbon' strategy leads the acceleration of the energy revolution, further promotes a new round of industrial revolution, and has become a powerful driving force and an important source of new productive forces and high-quality development in the new era. my country's green and low-carbon industries have great potential and potential." In Kang Yanbing's view, four key areas deserve attention: first, new quality productivity generated by disruptive changes in energy and power methods; second, new quality productivity generated by iterative upgrades of technological innovation with energy conservation, cost reduction, quality improvement and efficiency improvement as endogenous driving force. Quality productivity; third, new quality productivity generated by the intelligent cross-field and cross-industry energy supply and demand comprehensive system; fourth, new quality productivity generated by innovation in carbon-negative technologies.
"Based on the above four major areas, we can further play a leading role in promoting the extension and expansion of upstream and downstream industrial chains, and achieving coordinated development in new materials, components and other fields." Kang Yanbing believes that an "invisible champion" may be born at many key nodes. According to preliminary estimates, by 2060, it is expected to create a huge investment market with a scale of up to one billion yuan, and it will be green and effective investment.
He explained it through examples. For example, accelerating the improvement of time-of-use electricity prices is a very driving policy measure. Only by fully reflecting the unique value of electricity in different time periods and scenarios can we effectively guide the market direction, thereby providing a good policy environment for the vigorous development of energy storage technology and the construction of new power systems. In addition, tax credit is an important policy tool in many countries, and my country also needs to make full and reasonable use of this policy "weapon".
Kang Yanbing emphasized that the "Opinions" are top-level design documents for accelerating the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development and play an important leading role. The key to the next step is that all departments and regions must take real and practical measures, implement policies in detail, ensure that implementation is effective, and effectively provide strong policy guarantees for promoting the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development.
At the departmental level, emphasis should be placed on detailed implementation of policies. The "Opinions" clarify the policy systems of the "Six Major", and competent departments in relevant fields need to further refine and implement them and transform the policy framework into operational institutional regulations. At the same time, attention should be paid to policy consistency to avoid conflicts, accuracy to hit key points, continuity to ensure expectations, and policy synergy should be formed by strengthening overall planning.
At the local level, efforts must be made to implement results. Local governments at all levels are the main body in implementing policies and need to actively guide enterprises to follow national policies to ensure that enterprises and people enjoy the "policy dividends" of green transformation and development. At the same time, we should explore and innovate supporting policies and institutional mechanisms based on local realities to provide reference for improving the national policy system.
