Chinese Academy of Sciences proposes to abolish quantitative energy-saving emission targets

The Chinese Academy of Sciences recently recommended that the relevant departments of the state abolish quantitative energy-saving and emission reduction targets, and effectively promote the transformation of industries to low energy consumption, high technology level and international competitiveness. Wangshouyang, director of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Prediction Research Center, said in a recent "2011 China Economic Forecast Conference" that the goal is not to complete the quantitative energy-saving emission reduction target, but to eliminate some backward production capacity by energy saving and emission reduction, and further promote various industries to low energy consumption, high technology level,　　The transformation of high international competitiveness to achieve a real sense of energy saving and emission reduction.　　"Eleven-Five" period, as a result of energy-saving emission reduction targets in the setting of some problems, resulting in individual areas to take power rationing and other extreme measures, not only affect the normal production and life, but also caused by the human oil supply crisis, increased the new emissions, the result is counterproductive. To this end, the Chinese Academy of Sciences recommended that during the "Twelve-Five" period, priority should be given to the development of low energy consumption, high value-added and internationally competitive manufacturing industries, and actively develop the tertiary industry to effectively promote energy conservation and emission reduction　　Accelerate the elimination of power generation, petroleum processing, steel, cement, paper, medicine and other industries of backward production capacity, technology, technology and equipment.　　At the same time, according to our country's resource conditions, adjust and optimize energy structure, accelerate the development of nuclear energy, and actively develop hydropower, wind power and biogas utilization, increase the consumption of natural gas and renewable energy.　　In the "2011 China Economic Forecast Conference", the Chinese Academy of Sciences Forecast Scientific Research Center also estimated the 2011 China's industrial sector energy consumption generated carbon dioxide emissions.　　According to estimates, in 2011, China's coal, oil and gas consumption emissions of carbon dioxide is 5.6363 billion tons, 1.4785 billion tons and 343.1 million tons, the total amount of carbon dioxide emissions due to energy consumption of 7.4579 billion tons. In the sector, carbon dioxide emissions from a single fossil energy consumption accounted for the total amount of carbon dioxide emitted by fossil energy consumption in the top five sectors and their values were: electricity, heat production and supply, 37.18%, petroleum processing, coking and nuclear fuel processing, 24.68%　　Metal smelting and rolling processing industry, 7.51%, Chemical Industry, 7.37% non-metallic Mineral Products industry, 6.45%.　　Wangshouyang said that estimating the carbon dioxide emissions produced by China's primary energy consumption in 2011 is of great reference value to the formulation of energy saving and emission reduction targets and policy measures in China's "Twelve-Five" sector. Professor Liu Xiuli, director of the Center for Forecasting Science, CAS, explained that the main basis of the estimate is economic growth, from the historical data, the real GDP growth of 1% will increase energy consumption of about 0.54, is expected to 2011 China's GDP growth rate of 9.8%; second, China's various types of energy consumption structure, Since 1980, in China's primary energy consumption structure, coal consumption accounted for more than 70%, renewable energy accounted for low, to 2010 accounted for less than 10%, expected 2011The proportion of coal consumption is 69%, the proportion of renewable energy is 10%, and the third is the consumption structure between industries. Since 1990, the second industry in China's energy consumption has been in the proportion of more than 70%, China is in the heavy chemical industry accelerated development phase, is expected to 2011 secondary growth rate of 11%, energy consumption increased by about 6%.
