Zhejiang Zhoushan uses the hand of reform to draw a "green plan" for high-quality development
Faced with the people's yearning for a better life, how to answer the must-answer questions of the era of ecological civilization construction?
Since the Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the reform of the ecological civilization system in Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province has been comprehensively deepened and advanced in depth, strengthening ecological and environmental protection in all aspects, regions and processes. The ecological civilization institutional system has become more complete, and solid steps have been taken in green, circular and low-carbon development.
For more than ten years, Zhoushan has continued to exert its efforts and has made great achievements for a long time. In 2023, the proportion of first-class seawater in the coastal waters of Zhoushan City will be 32.6%, an increase of 7.6 percentage points year-on-year, and the overall water quality will be stable and rising; the ambient air quality ranks third among the 168 key cities in the country and Zhejiang Province ranks first; the city's water quality compliance rate of drinking water sources above the county level is 100%... An ecological answer sheet with bluer skies, clearer water, and more beautiful mountains is on the thousands of islands on the coast of the East China Sea.
Improve systems and mechanisms to continuously improve the quality of the ecological environment
Protect the green waters and green mountains, insist on using the system to control power and govern officials, protect the blue and increase the green, and make the system a rigid constraint and untouchable high-voltage line.
As early as ten years ago, Zhoushan established a special group for the reform of the ecological civilization system, with the deputy mayor in charge as the team leader, the deputy secretary-general of the municipal government and the main person in charge of the municipal environmental protection department as the deputy team leader, and the leaders in charge of various relevant departments as members. Efforts should be made to enhance the systematicness and scientificity of the top-level design of the operating system to ensure that the reform of the ecological civilization system is reviewed from a higher perspective and the reform of the ecological civilization system is planned with higher standards.
As an important part of the government's environmental governance system, the deepening of institutional reform of the ecological environment department plays a crucial role in promoting the construction of ecological civilization and achieving sustainable development. The ecological environment departments of municipal and county (district) bureaus and the comprehensive administrative law enforcement teams for ecological and environmental protection at the city and county levels have been established, implementing the "bureau and team integration" system. Through institutional reform, Zhoushan's ecological and environmental management capabilities will be further strengthened to provide guarantees for improving the efficiency of ecological and environmental governance.
Standing on Xiaoyangshan Island and looking out, on the beach not far away, photovoltaic panels are neatly arranged on the pile foundation, shining under the sunshine. The annual power generation capacity is about 135 million kilowatt-hours, saving 45,000 tons of standard coal every year, and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 134,000 tons. This CGNPC Shengsi Xiaoyangshan Thin Daozui Photovoltaic Power Station Project with a total investment of 510 million yuan is continuously providing more clean and renewable energy.
To create a new energy development path with ocean island characteristics, Zhoushan issued and implemented the "Zhoushan City Carbon Peak Implementation Plan" and the "6+1" sub-field implementation plan. As the first and second batch of low-carbon pilot counties, Putuo District and Shengsi County have promoted the construction of 4 low (zero) carbon pilot townships and 22 villages (communities); a total of 3 municipal green and low-carbon industrial parks, 2 national green factories, 7 provincial green and low-carbon factories, and 43 municipal green and low-carbon factories have been identified.
The construction of a "waste-free city" is a powerful starting point for deepening the reform of comprehensive solid waste management from the overall level of the city. It is also an important measure to enhance ecological civilization and build a beautiful China.
More than 140 companies have signed disposal agreements, with a collection and transportation coverage rate of more than 86%, and annual collection and transportation of industrial solid waste of more than 40,000 tons. At the beginning of this year, Daishan County built the first industrial solid waste collection, storage and transfer platform, integrating the collection and transportation functions of hazardous waste and general solid waste to create a "two-in-one" centralized collection and transportation model for industrial solid waste. At present, the county's collection rate of hazardous waste from social sources such as laboratory, medical, and pesticide packaging waste has reached 100%, completely solving the shortcoming of difficult transfer of industrial solid and hazardous waste in island areas.
Not only Daishan County, in recent years, Zhoushan has comprehensively deepened the construction of "waste-free cities" in the entire region and successfully entered the national-level "waste-free city" construction sequence during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, forming a series of typical practices such as "efficient recycling" of domestic waste,"turning waste into treasure" of industrial solid waste,"intelligent supervision" of medical waste, and "marine sanitation" working mechanism.
Up to now, a total of 494 "waste-free cells" have been built in the city, and the hazardous waste landfill ratio has dropped to 7.5%. The comprehensive utilization rate of general industrial solid waste, domestic classification treatment rate, and comprehensive utilization rate of straw have all exceeded the provincial target.
One reform measure after another has brought together a strong synergy to continue to tackle problems and promote the continuous improvement of the quality of the ecological environment.
Optimize the industrial structure and accelerate the green transformation of development methods
Born because of the sea and striving to be strong towards the sea. The vast ocean gives Zhoushan unlimited resources, and firmly protecting and improving the marine environment should also become Zhoushan's responsibility and mission.
Zhoushan is rich in marine carbon sink resources. In addition to blue carbon resources such as salt marshes, muddy flats, and carbon sink fisheries, Zhoushan also actively promotes the planting and cultivation of mangroves. The conditions for carbon sequestration are unique.
In July last year, Zhoushan completed the intention to sign the first marine carbon sink project transaction. The Municipal Government Affairs Management Center and Zhejiang Zheneng Zhongmei Zhoushan Coal and Electricity Co., Ltd. respectively signed contracts with Shengsi Shanhai Wonders Marine Technology Development Co., Ltd. to discuss future mussel breeding projects and signed a "blue carbon" transaction letter of intent to subscribe for carbon emission reductions.
Zhoushan also issued the "Zhoushan City Blue Carbon Economy Development Action Plan (2022-2025)", with marine carbon sinks as the core, starting from negative carbon, zero-carbon and low-carbon paths, and taking marine ecosystem carbon sinks, fishery carbon sinks, and marine new energy as the starting point to innovate and develop the blue carbon economy.
In Nandong Art Valley, located in Xinjian Village, Ganlan Town, Dinghai District, Zhoushan City, the "net-zero carbon concept" can be seen everywhere: solar photovoltaic power generation panels are installed on the roof of the parking lot, electric sightseeing vehicles have been purchased, and new energy vehicle charging piles have been set up. The village has also built a domestic sewage treatment station to pipe the domestic sewage of the entire village and sewage generated by farmhouses.
With this "report card", the small mountain village has become even more famous and has won one "beauty title" after another. At the first United Nations Habitat Conference, Xinjian Village was included in the report "Guidelines for Net Zero-Carbon Rural Planning-Taking China's Yangtze River Delta Region as an Example".
As night falls, the 24-hour "mechanical city" on Yushan Island is brightly lit. According to the person in charge of the project, the project has always implemented the strictest emission standards. The white smoke spewed out from the base chimney into the black night sky is water vapor after professional environmental treatment.
To build a full-process information-based supervision system for radioactive sources of "one device, one code, one terminal and one platform", Zhoushan Petrochemical Enterprises took the lead in building a high-level carbon dioxide recycling device in the industry, and was rated as "National Ecological Environmental Protection Industry Green" by the China Environmental Protection Industry Association. Low carbon case ". Taking multiple measures to promote energy conservation and consumption reduction, and continuously improve the advanced level of energy efficiency. Zhoushan Petrochemical Enterprise was rated as the "2022 Energy Efficiency Leader Benchmark Enterprise" by the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation.
Shipbuilding and repairing industry is Zhoushan's pillar industry. In 2018, Zhoushan was the first in China to launch the "Zhoushan Green Ship Repair Enterprise Code", establish a green ship repair demonstration model enterprise, and continue to carry out city-level "green ship repair" recognition and dynamic management.
"After the digital workshop is put into use, it has achieved the digital effects of information sharing, progress transparency, process traceability, and knowledge reuse, which is the key to achieving productivity growth." The relevant person in charge of Zhoushan COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry said.
In recent years, Liuheng has actively promoted the "digital, automated and intelligent" transformation of the shipbuilding industry, and planned the layout of high value-added and new energy ship types. The green shipbuilding industry has gradually achieved a magnificent transformation from "manufacturing" to "intelligent" manufacturing. Turn around.
Promote the green development of the ship repair industry. Up to now, there are 4 "green ship repair demonstration enterprises" and 17 "green ship repair enterprises" in the city. Wanbang Heavy Industry and Zhoushan COSCO have been recognized as national-level "green ship repair demonstration enterprises."
Consolidate facility construction and make up for shortcomings in ecological and environmental governance
Due to the receipt of ship pollutants without treatment for more than 60 days, the "Bofeng 16" triggered a medium warning in the system. The port and shipping department promptly connects with relevant shipping companies to understand the whole story and implement follow-up regulatory measures.
As an innovative measure to deepen the supervision of ship pollutants in ports in Zhoushan, the application of "Zhouhaijing" has transformed relevant departments of land and sea from "working alone" to "collaborative linkage" and from "passive supervision" to "intelligent discovery".
Opening the cockpit of "Zhouhaijing", the operating status of the city's 136 ships receiving and transferring pollutants and 154 hazardous waste or ship garbage transfer vehicles can be clearly seen on the big screen. A green light indicates that it is being transferred, and a red light indicates that it is being received. By clicking in, you can also see specific ship information and operation information, including ship name, company, operation time and location, type and quantity of pollutants, etc.
The collaborative management of pollutants from ports and ships has been awarded the best practice case of "waste-free cities" in Zhejiang Province and has been piloted;"Zhouhaijing" has been listed as a major provincial application "waste-free cities" digital reform pilot.
Not only ship pollutants, in recent years, Zhoushan has also actively explored and practiced the "marine sanitation" mechanism to effectively control coastal, beach and offshore marine garbage.
Explore the establishment of a global, full-time, and national "marine sanitation" working mechanism. By establishing a "departmental collaboration + territorial management" grid responsibility system, adopting the "source control + daily cleaning" intelligent governance model, and forming a "fixed team + volunteer service" The national participation pattern has effectively managed coastal, beach and offshore marine garbage, and was selected as a case in the national free trade zone to strengthen ecological and environmental protection and promote high-quality development in 2022.
Environmental protection approval is an important part of the operation of an enterprise. Whether the enterprise can start smoothly and whether the project can start smoothly is closely related to this.
"Last year, we had a painting workshop renovation project. When we were doing environmental approval, the approval process was shortened. After the materials were ready, we received the filing notice for the 'zero land' technical transformation project that day. Our project was immediately able to start construction, which was unexpected before." The relevant person in charge of Zhoushan Ocean Engineering Co., Ltd. of the Third Aviation Administration of China Communications Corporation lamented.
Expand the benefits of the "regional environmental assessment + environmental standards" reform, vigorously promote the "regional environmental assessment + environmental standards" reform,"agency system + commitment system" reform,"zero meeting" and other approval models to speed up the timeliness of environmental assessment and allow enterprises to effectively enjoy The dividends brought by the "run at most" reform of approval services. Many projects enjoy the "Regional Environmental Assessment + Environmental Standards" downgrade approval reform policy, and the time and cost of preparing the environmental assessment of projects involving reform have been greatly reduced.
Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the sea to eat the sea is the survival wisdom left behind by generations. As society continues to develop, only by living harmoniously with nature can we continue to receive the "dividends" brought by development. Zhoushan is actively exploring "green solutions" for high-quality development and interpreting the rich connotation of common prosperity with actions.
