Energy saving and emission reduction audit with a punch

Reporter Cui The first stage of the special audit mainly to find out energy-saving emission reduction funds investment, policy measures, such as the implementation of the overall situation, the key industries in May this year, the focus on energy-saving emission reduction special audit investigation is the second stage, focusing on the disclosure of local government and related departments and enterprises prominent In order to restrain some local governments from carrying out overcapacity projects, it is necessary to establish the corresponding punitive system and to carry out the reform of the various systems. Since May, the Audit Commission has again organized 18 missions to carry out special audit investigation on energy saving and emission reduction in 18 power, steel, cement and other key industries, and The organization of 10 local audit agencies also carried out an audit survey of energy conservation and emission reduction in key industries.　　The previous October 2009 to this April, the Audit Commission has organized 18 local missions to 18 provinces to carry out energy conservation and emission reduction of special funds audit.　　Over the past two years, the Audit Commission has conducted 20 provinces and municipalities in the country to carry out energy saving and emission reduction audits, accounting for nearly 2/3 of the national provinces and cities.　　To ascertain the investment in energy saving and emission reduction, the key audit of power, steel, cement enterprises in time, provinces are successive arrangements for energy-saving emission reduction audit, for the Audit Commission is the first time. "This not only fully explained the Audit Commission on energy-saving emission reduction work of concern and attention, at the same time, is also by the energy conservation and emission reduction work itself the importance, the severity and the related audit complexity decision."　　Huangdao, Director of Audit Division of Agriculture and Resources and environmental protection of Audit Office.　　This year is the key year to achieve the "Eleven-Five" planning goals, energy-saving and emission reduction work in the domestic face severe challenges, change mainly rely on increasing material resources consumption of economic development model is not easy. In October 2009 to the April this year, the audit of special funds for energy saving and emission reduction, the Audit Commission to find out the investment in energy saving and emission reduction, policy measures implementation, local Government and related departments of the overall situation.　　The special audit investigation of energy saving and emission reduction in the key industries that has been carried out since May this year is the continuation and deepening of the audit on energy saving and emission reduction in the previous stage. Huangdao said that in the second phase of the audit, the Commission selected the power, steel, cement and other sectors of the enterprise as the focus of audit investigation units, in order to implement energy-saving emission reduction policies and regulations and the use of energy-saving special funds for the entry point, to ascertain the key industries around the capacity scale,　　Energy-saving emission reduction and capital use, and so on, focus on the local government and relevant authorities and enterprises to highlight the problems. Individual areas to reduce sewage treatment fee for preferential investment, resulting in the inability of the treatment plant operation, environmental pollution audit and audit investigation shows that all regions pay great attention to energy saving and emission reduction work, issued a series of policy measures to achieve significant results.　　For example, as of the end of 2009, Jiangsu province's chemical oxygen demand is nearing completion of the "Eleven-Five" target task, sulfur dioxide emission reduction indicators have been completed in advance of the "Eleven-Five" target task, unit GDP energy consumption indicators for 3 consecutive years by the State to determine as the excess completion level. However, the audit investigation also found that individual areas are driven by local interests, in the elimination of backward production capacity, the countryThere are some irregularities in the work of the nature reserve. For example, a county in a province in 2005 in the local National Nature reserve in the West set up to produce printing and dyeing, pesticide-oriented chemical industrial Park, the Park 9 enterprises daily production of a large number of chemical sewage, through the county a sewage treatment plant discharged to the reserve. In order to encourage investment, the local government reduced the cost of sewage treatment, resulting in the inability of sewage treatment plants to operate, a large number of chemical sewage directly discharged into the protected areas, worsening the habitat of rare bird birds. From February 2007 to December 2009, the sewage treatment plant in the county treated 2.391 million tons of sewage, only 1.345 million yuan, the average charge of 0.56 yuan/ton, significantly lower than the same period of neighboring sewage treatment plant 4 yuan/ton-5.5 yuan/ton of charges.　　During the 944 days that the plant had run records, some of the sewage treatment equipment was not run for more than 770 days.　　Huangdao said that some local governments dare to launch overcapacity projects or backward capacity projects, there are complex reasons and background, in order to curb this interest drive and establish a corresponding punitive system, must be carried out with the reform of the system.　　Iron and steel industry sintering machine desulfurization facility cost is high, policy support to be further perfected the audit investigation found that "policy is not implemented" is only the problem on the one hand, the policy is not perfect is not conducive to the implementation of energy-saving emission reduction. In Jiangsu Province, for example, the reporter learned that more than 50% of the sulfur dioxide emissions in iron and steel enterprises are discharged in the process of sintering, Jiangsu has been carrying out sintering machine desulfurization facility construction and achieved some results.　　As at the end of 2009, 4 iron and steel enterprises in 5 sintering machine desulfurization Facility construction into the annual emission reduction plan, these projects have been completed to form a desulfurization capacity of 18,700 tons/year. However, the audit investigation found that the desulfurization process of steel sintering machine is complex, the construction of desulfurization facilities is large and the operation cost is high. For example, a steel group of 360 square meters of sintering machine Desulfurization Project Total investment of 118.63 million yuan, of which two financial subsidies 9.3 million yuan, enterprises own investment accounted for 92.16% of total investments;　　Enterprises need to bear about 23.35 million yuan per year of operating costs, which makes the company feel pressure. Up to now, the state in the steel industry has not yet introduced similar to the coal-fired power plant desulfurization toll increases and other related incentives and support policies, is not conducive to the next stage of sulfur dioxide emission reduction work.　　The audit recommended that the relevant government departments should study the relevant financial support and supporting policies as soon as possible to help enterprises solve the problems such as excessive construction cost and excessive operation and maintenance cost of the Desulfurization project. Capital investment increased by 80%, overall security and effective from the advance of energy-saving emission reduction of special funds audit, the financial departments at all levels to increase energy-saving emission reduction funds investment, the increase is obvious. For example, the 20 provinces, districts and municipalities involved in the audit, the central government's investment in energy conservation in these areas from 2007 to 20.82 billion yuan, increased to 2009 37952 million yuan, an increase of 82.28%, local finance has increased energy conservation and emission reduction funds, the provincial level of fiscal energy conservation investment from 2007 to 7.423 billion yuan, increased to 2009 of 13.776 billion yuan, an increase of 85.58%.　　Audit shows that the overall use of energy-saving emission reduction of special funds, the effect is remarkable, the Ministry of Finance in conjunction with the relevant departments have formulated more than 30 energy-saving special funds management measures, the initial construction of financial support for energy-saving emission reduction policy system to ensure the smooth development of energy saving and emission reduction At the same time, the audit also found that in the use of funds management, a small number of local financial departments to stay out of the backward capacity of the central financial incentive funds, the same construction content of the project repeatedly reported to take the central investment subsidy funds, the elimination of backward production capacity is not true to take the state incentive funds The local Government attaches great importance to the problems identified by the audit and pays close attention to rectification. At present, the audit has urged the allocation of stranded special funds 448 million yuan, the return of misappropriation of funds 43.5 million yuan, the relevant units and 9 people responsible for the responsibility.
