By 2030, the output value of green factories at all levels will account for more than 40% of the total output value of the manufacturing industry, and by 2030, the recycling of major renewable resources will reach 510 million tons, and the comprehensive utilization rate of bulk industrial solid waste will reach 62%...... Not long ago, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other seven departments issued the "Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Green Development of the Manufacturing Industry" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guiding Opinions"), clarifying the timetable and roadmap, which will help promote the manufacturing industry to forge new industrial competitive advantages.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to "promote the high-end, intelligent and green development of the manufacturing industry". In recent years, China has been accelerating the construction of a green, low-carbon and circular economic system, promoting green production methods, and integrating the concept of green development into the whole chain of industry, agriculture and service industries, and has achieved positive results. To thoroughly implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and to achieve the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, it is necessary to establish and improve the technology, policy, standard, and benchmarking cultivation system that supports the green development of the manufacturing industry, and polish the ecological background of new industrialization.
To promote the green development of the manufacturing industry, the green and low-carbon transformation and upgrading of traditional industries is the key. For a period of time, through green and low-carbon transformation and upgrading, China's traditional industries have improved their technical equipment level, resource and energy utilization efficiency, etc., and the main pollutants and carbon dioxide emission intensity of key industries and fields have continued to decline. However, it should be noted that some industries are still facing problems such as high pressure on transformation and imperfect supporting systems for transformation. Therefore, it is necessary to speed up the optimization and adjustment of the product structure, energy consumption structure, raw material structure and process reengineering of traditional industries, and build a clean, efficient and low-carbon industrial energy consumption structure. At the same time, it is also necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as regional industrial base, resource endowment, and environmental carrying capacity, and promote the formation of a new pattern of green and low-carbon transformation of traditional industries that is clustered and differentiated.
Emerging industries are an important force for achieving high-quality development, showing a vigorous upward momentum. To promote the green development of the manufacturing industry, it is necessary to promote the green and low-carbon development of emerging industries. This is not only to speed up the completion of the green and low-carbon shortcomings of emerging industries, and strive to solve the worries about the sustainable development of the industry, but also to focus on forging the advantages of green and low-carbon industries, and increase the proportion of green and low-carbon industries such as green environmental protection, new energy equipment, and new energy vehicles. In fact, the green and low-carbon transformation of the economy and society has brought huge market space. Based on cutting-edge technologies and focusing on market demand, we should look forward to the layout of future industries in the field of green and low-carbon, play a good game of chess, and grasp the initiative.
Cross-border industrial integration is an important trend, and the green development of the manufacturing industry is no exception. The "Guiding Opinions" proposes to promote the deep integration of digitalization and greening, promote the deep integration of green manufacturing and modern service industries, and promote the deep integration of green consumer demand and green product supply. This means that to promote the green development of the manufacturing industry, it is necessary to further give full play to the enabling role of digital technology in improving resource efficiency, environmental benefits, management efficiency, etc., accelerate the digital and green collaborative transformation of production methods, build a high-quality and efficient green manufacturing service system, and increase the supply of green products. This process is not easy, and it is necessary to work hard in scientific and technological innovation, promotion and application, policy support, incentive mechanism, etc., to create a good environment and effective space for better cultivating a new business format of green, digital and service-oriented integrated development.
Promoting the green development of the manufacturing industry is not a matter of one industry or one industry, but a process of multi-industry, multi-field and multi-department collaboration. For the cultivation of green and low-carbon industries, technological transformation and upgrading, relevant government departments should support when they should support, and encourage when they should encourage. It is particularly important to strengthen personnel training, support universities and research institutes to add urgently needed majors in green and low-carbon fields, and carry out vocational skills training for green and low-carbon fields. Only by mobilizing the government, enterprises, scientific research institutions, industry associations and other subjects to give full play to the enthusiasm and initiative to support the green development of the manufacturing industry, can we gather development momentum with a strong joint force.
Green factories, green parks, green supply chains, and green product evaluation standards...... Nowadays, the pace of green manufacturing system construction is accelerating. Taking the release of the "Guiding Opinions" as an opportunity, all regions and departments have taken active actions to coordinate the synergy of pollution reduction and carbon reduction, vigorously promote green production methods, transform and upgrade traditional industries, consolidate and upgrade advantageous industries, and promote more manufacturing industries to achieve green development, which will surely build a new engine for green growth.
