It is learned from the energy-saving and consumption-reduction meeting held on April 6 that another "punch" is to made to deal with the energy-saving and consumption-reduction work. Specifically speaking, in the following three years, 31 heavy pollution and high consumption sectors in 14 industries will be the key area of treatment; this year, the elimination of S7 series transformers of over half of the industries will be completed; and each year, an energy-saving space of 300,000 tons of standard coal will be achieved.

Last year, Ningbo made great achievements in energy saving and consumption reduction. 121 key energy-consuming enterprises saved 0.785 million tons of standard coal. The backward capacity (equipments) of 379 enterprises in 17 industries were eliminated, resulting in a energy-consuming reduction of 0.53 million tons of standard coal and an electricity-consuming reduction of one billion kilowatt-hours. Based on that, this year, Ningbo is to implement the "dual control" strategy of energy-consuming intensity and quantity to ensure a decline of 4.5% of unit GDP energy consumption.

This year's key task is to eliminate the backward production capacity. In the following three years, Ningbo will treat, eliminate or improve 31 heavy-pollution and high-consumption sectors in 14 industries such as iron and steel, printing and dyeing, paper making and brick and tile. Besides, this year, the elimination of S7 series transformers of over half of the industries will be completed and each year, an energy-saving space of 300,000 tons of standard coal will be achieved. Great efforts will be made to promote the construction of the comprehensive energy management services platform, including the construction of personalized regional and industrial sub-platforms in over half of the energy-related departments of town and municipal levels.

Endeavor will also be made in such projects as energy-saving and transformation, clean production and industrial circular economy. Over 1000 energy-saving and transformation projects will be implemented in the city, with an energy-saving capacity of one million tons of standard coal per year. In the following five years, the "611" industrial circular economy project will be carried out in six fields including carbon reduction, water saving and water reusing, aiming at cultivating and developing ten demonstrative parks of industrial circular economy and 100 demonstrative enterprises of industrial circular economy.

In the major energy-saving fields, over 100 demonstrative projects of renewable energy application with an area of eight million square meters were carried out last year. Such projects as port container transportation were included in the national demonstrative projects of energy saving and consumption reduction in transportation industry. 90 pulbic institutions at the municipal level implemented the monthly energy-consuming monitoring and examing system. This year, besides strengthening the energy-saving supervision of new buildings, Ningbo will continue to promote the pilot project of container hanging transportation and improve the energy-saving management networks of all industries and major enterprises.

Statistics show that this year the summer peak electricity consumption gap for the whole province will reach six million to nine million kilowatts, while the gap for Ningbo stands at 1.1 million to 1.6 million kilowatts. Confronted with such a grim situation of summer electricity consumption, Ningbo is to make further efforts to improve its emergency plan of orderly electricity consumption and guarantee the electricity use of livelihood sectors and major sectors
