At 9 a.m. on March 5th, the fifth session of the 10th National People's Congress was opened at the Great Hall of the People. Premier Wen Jiabao of the State Council made a report on government work. Wen Jiabao stated in his report on the work of the government in 2007 that efforts should be made to save energy, reduce consumption, and protect the environment.
Wen Jiabao said that in terms of energy saving and environmental protection this year, the following eight areas should be focused on:
The first is to improve and strictly enforce energy consumption and environmental protection standards. The new project must carry out energy consumption review and environmental impact assessment. Construction that is not in compliance with the energy conservation and environmental protection standards must not be started. The existing enterprises that are still not up to standard after the rectification must stop production and close down according to law.
The second is to resolutely eliminate backward production capacity. During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan†period, 50 million kilowatts of small thermal power units will be shut down, and 10 million kilowatts will be shut down this year; five billion tons of outdated ironmaking capacity and 55 million tons of outdated steelmaking capacity will be phased out in five years, and 30 million tons will be phased out this year. And 35 million tons. Increased efforts to eliminate outdated production capacity in industries such as cement, electrolytic aluminum, ferroalloys, coke, and calcium carbide.
The third is to focus on key industries and enterprises. Strengthen the key industries such as iron and steel, non-ferrous metals, coal, chemicals, building materials, and construction, as well as the energy-saving and emission-reduction work of key enterprises that consume more than 10,000 tons of coal per year. Full implementation of key low-efficiency industrial boiler (kiln) transformation, regional cogeneration and other key energy-saving projects. Adhere to give priority to the development of urban public transport.
Fourth, improve the energy conservation and environmental protection policy system. Pay attention to the role of the market mechanism, and comprehensively use economic means such as price, taxation, and credit to promote energy conservation and environmental protection. We will deepen the reform of prices of important resource products and sewage charges, improve the resource tax system, and improve the system of paid use of mineral resources.
Fifth, we will accelerate technological progress in energy conservation and environmental protection. Actively promote equipment renewal and technological transformation with the main goal of energy conservation and emission reduction, and guide enterprises to adopt new equipment, new processes, and new technologies that are conducive to energy conservation and environmental protection. Strengthen the comprehensive utilization of resources and clean production, and vigorously develop the circular economy and energy-saving and environmental protection industries.
Sixth, increase pollution control and environmental protection. Increase the national debt funds and central budget funds to support the construction of urban domestic sewage, garbage disposal and hazardous waste treatment facilities. We will continue to do a good job in the pollution control of the "Three rivers and three lakes" (Huaihe River Liaohe, Taihu Lake Chaochi Dianchi), the Songhua River, the Three Gorges reservoir area and the upstream, South-to-North water transfer sources and along the key river basins. It is forbidden to spread polluting enterprises and urban pollutants to rural areas and control rural non-point source pollution.
Seventh, strengthen the supervision and management of law enforcement. We will establish a more effective supervision and management system for energy conservation and environmental protection and resolutely punish all kinds of illegal activities in accordance with the law. Eighth, earnestly implement the target responsibility system for energy conservation and environmental protection. We must establish and improve a scientific, complete, and unified energy conservation and emission reduction index system, monitoring system, and assessment system, and implement a strict accountability system.
