Four major energy-consuming industries how to sustainable development

Industrial enterprises: the next pivot point for energy conservation and emission reduction

At the national industrial energy conservation and comprehensive utilization work conference held earlier this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology put forward the main expected goal of energy conservation and comprehensive utilization work in 2014 was set as follows: energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions per unit of industrial added value fell by more than 4.5%, and water consumption per ten thousand yuan of industrial added value fell by 7%.

According to the forecasts of several research institutions, in 2014, the year-on-year growth rate of heavy industry may still be faster than light industry, industrial institutions will continue to pull the rapid growth of total industrial energy consumption, which will affect the realization of China's total energy consumption control targets.

At the same time, with the guidance of national policy and environmental awareness of the deepening, just before and after the introduction of the new "Environmental Protection Law", many areas of the country has already begun to embark on a high energy-consuming enterprises to "clean up" in Guangdong, for example, Dongguan, 879 key energy-using units received an energy-saving task list of the six key polluting industries, key enterprises will be High standards or orderly withdrawal; Hebei Shijiazhuang also focused on dismantling 35 cement enterprises; Shaanxi Province in 2013*** closed 11 paper mills, paper mills have all moved away from the main city. Many experts said that industrial enterprises will be the next fulcrum of energy saving and emission reduction.

Shen Longhai, director of the Energy Conservation Service Industry Committee of the China Energy Conservation Association, has calculated an account: by 2020, the energy-saving potential of industrial enterprises will total 360 billion yuan. Currently, industrial energy consumption accounts for more than 70 percent of the total energy consumption of society, but despite the huge potential for industrial energy saving, the energy-saving industry is far from satisfactory.

"Despite the large space of this market, the investment enthusiasm of the society is not high, and the fundamental reason lies in the lack of a 'power'." Xin'ao intelligent energy pan-energy station products, deputy general manager Zhu Lei told reporters. According to Zhu Lei, the biggest limiting factor for energy saving and emission reduction is the cost issue, he said, "For example, the textile industry, itself a cloth can not earn much money, and then take out the extra money to do energy saving and emission reduction, which has a very big impact on it; for the glass industry, the cost of energy is even more than 50%, if there is no financial support or mandatory renovation, it can only reduce the earnings or even losses."

Currently, although the policy level is frequently increased, but China's energy-saving services type of enterprises in the technology and solution level any face multiple challenges. First of all, many energy services type of enterprises are often able to achieve high energy-consuming enterprises local energy saving, but did not take into account the overall energy saving and emission reduction needs, to solve the "point" and ignore the "surface", resulting in the final energy saving and emission reduction effect is not prominent; Second, regardless of the emission reduction of corporate Second, without regard to the business situation and cost pressures, blindly recommended and launched a number of high-tech, high-cost energy-saving emission reduction solutions, into the "emission reduction for the sake of emission reduction" of the misunderstanding; Third, energy saving and emission reduction can not be taken into account at the same time, there are often "energy efficiency, but the emissions remain" or "emission reduction, but production costs". "Emission reduction but production costs have increased significantly," the embarrassing situation, can not take into account both cleaner production and full-price development of the use of energy; Fourth, can not be adapted to local conditions to provide personalized solutions for high-energy-consuming enterprises, one-size-fits-all energy-saving and emission reduction solutions can not be done for the individual enterprise, from the production process, the structure of the underlying Link to do integrated consideration, to provide personalized, systematic solutions, often reduced to treat the symptoms but not the root cause of the "energy-saving furnishings".

System solutions for industrial energy saving and emission reduction to bring new breakthroughs

Industrial energy saving and emission reduction facing the urgency and dilemma for the energy-saving services industry has brought opportunities and challenges. According to reports, in recent years, China's energy-saving service enterprises showed explosive growth, energy-saving services industry gross output value from 165.337 billion yuan in 2012 to 215.562 billion yuan in 2013, an increase of 30.38%; the country engaged in energy-saving service business from the end of 2012 4,175 companies grew to the end of 2013 4,852, an increase of 16.22% energy-saving! The field of emission reduction is changing from a blue sea to a red sea.

But compared with the rapid expansion of the scale, the energy-saving service industry is a little slow in doing "strong". Experts believe that the construction of their own capabilities is a necessary condition for enterprises to become strong, energy-saving services enterprises own capabilities, including technical capabilities, management capabilities. Only in terms of technical capabilities, the well-known energy-saving companies at home and abroad are all technological innovation to occupy the high-end of the industrial chain, such enterprises have their own core technologies or intellectual property rights, mostly asset-light, fast-growing high-tech enterprises.

Taking the Zhuzhou Xinglong Chemical Water Glass Cleaner Production Project implemented by Xin'ao Intelligent Energy as an example, Xin'ao considered the comprehensive utilization of energy efficiency and opened up the energy demand of Xinglong Chemical in all aspects, which brought a new breakthrough in energy conservation and emission reduction of this kind of energy-consuming enterprises. First, through the implementation of system-wide energy-saving transformation of its production line, natural gas is used to replace the traditional water gas to reduce carbon dioxide emissions; second, the flue gas produced in the production process is recycled through technological means; third, the process is improved on the premise of reducing energy costs. After energy-saving transformation, the final energy-saving rate of Xinglong Chemical reached 17%, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 16,000 tons per year and saving energy costs up to 6 million yuan.

It is precisely for this reason that many foreign companies have been attracted to enter the Chinese energy-saving market. Such as Siemens and ABB, through the provision of technical solutions to provide skills, the same beach China's energy-saving environmental protection market. It is understood that Siemens in China for the first time in the implementation of the cement plant energy management, the average power saving rate of 35%.

While many domestic and foreign companies are competing on the same stage in China's energy-saving market, the complexity of energy saving and emission reduction in industrial enterprises, but the complexity of energy saving and emission reduction in industrial enterprises, as well as the country's latest release of the total amount of control plans and emission standards for industrial enterprises to carry out pollutant emission reduction work puts forward higher requirements, undoubtedly, energy-saving service companies have put forward a higher challenge.

Fortunately, with the increase of national subsidies for energy saving and emission reduction, the gradual opening up of the policy of distributed energy grid-connected power generation, the rapid advancement of energy saving and efficiency technologies, the depth of the concept of energy utilization, as well as a number of companies have put forward a systematic solution for the energy saving and transformation of the needs of the entire industrial enterprises. As for the industrial energy saving market, Zhu Lei said, the market is very large, service providers need to take the route of differentiation, the next competition will be technology, brand and service awareness.
