The city decided to cancel Huangjiang's first major project qualification for billions of photovoltaic projects

Dongguan Major office recently issued a circular that, due to environmental issues, the city decided to cancel Huangjiang first billion photovoltaic project major project qualification.

Dongguan important office in the release of the news, said that after the Dongguan major project leadership team agreed to cancel the Huangjiang surplus Photovoltaic Energy Materials Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shun Ying Photovoltaic") production project of this qualification.

Dongguan government said to local media that environmental protection projects in the EIA and land planning adjustment has still been stranded. Dongguan Environmental Protection Agency an official told the first financial daily reporter that the project does exist.

This is also since 2011 Fuji Kanghuang Project, Huangjiang another major project faced with the situation can not be started.

Founded in 2011, Shun Ying Photovoltaic in its official online introduction, the project belongs to research, development, production, sales of photovoltaic energy materials as one of the High-tech new company, the project covers an area of 700 acres, the total investment of 3 billion yuan, the estimated annual output of 80,000 tons of high-purity silica, production, will achieve product sales revenue of about 8.2 billion yuan, Annual profit of more than 4 billion yuan.

The cancellation of major project qualifications means that the 700 acres of land targets that the project plans to have will fall through.

Public information from Huangjiang's official website shows that the project is a major construction project in 2013 Dongguan, which has great and far-reaching influence on the Huangjiang and economic and social development after its completion. Shun Ying Photovoltaic in March this year held a project Foundation ceremony, Dongguan a deputy mayor and the town party secretary also attended. But the project has not been started because of questions about land expropriation and environmental protection.

For the final grounding of the project, Huangjiang government said that because of the latest technology adopted by the project, there is no precedent in the country, although many comprehensive explanations and technical improvements by Shun Ying PV Technology team have made it difficult to dispel the doubts of the community, the project is therefore applying for EIA and land planning adjustment, The challenge of the EIA experts and the strong opposition of the residents around the project location directly led to the project being unable to pass the EIA and land planning adjustment.

Local media said the local villagers had already reflected the relevant EIA issues as early as the Huangjiang coordination meeting on the project was held in 2011. They say silica's dust is extremely fine if they are inhaled for a long time in the air containing this harmful substance, or will suffer from silicosis. According to medical knowledge, people with this kind of pneumoconiosis will produce dizziness, fatigue, palpitations and other symptoms.

But in March this year, an environmental company in Beijing said in an EIA notice to Shun Ying PV that the potential impact would include "no tissue emissions from the silicon Dioxide separation workshop". The environmental company said in operation, silica crystalline dust waste gas through the water spray dust treatment, crystal and spherical silica powder packaging produced by the dust through the dust system, the project "impact on the surrounding environment can be controlled to meet the relevant national environmental standards."

The Dongguan Municipal Bureau of Environmental Protection officials told the reporter that the Bureau is doing a further understanding of the matter.

In the past few years, some of China's photovoltaic manufacturing enterprises in the production process, the local environmental pollution incident has caused a lot of controversy.

China's Renewable Energy Society, an expert of the reporter said, photovoltaic in China just started, because the local government for investment and GDP considerations, the similar pollution problem has not been given attention. "It is imperative that the departments concerned should impose restrictions on these actions." ”

State Ministry of Industry recently announced the "PV manufacturing sector standard conditions (draft)" said that the relevant departments to strengthen the photovoltaic manufacturing enterprises product quality supervision. Its contents are mainly divided into production layout and project establishment, production scale and technology, comprehensive utilization of resources and energy consumption, environmental protection, quality management and supervision and management.
