It is necessary for the horse to run well and for the horse to eat less. Guangdong Zhuangma, who has long been a leader in the country’s economy, is now in trouble. On the one hand, in order to maintain rapid economic growth, Guangdong must increase input in order to successfully achieve transformation and upgrading; on the other hand, the reduction in energy consumption per unit of 18% deployed by the country is greater than the demand for economic development in the same military order. Reduce energy consumption. Between the dilemmas, the development of energy-saving industries and environmental protection industry will undoubtedly become the golden key to understand this difficult problem. Under this background, the “Twelfth Five-year Plan for the Development of Energy-saving and Environmental Protection Industries in Guangdong Province” (hereinafter referred to as “Planning”) came into being. The "Planning" pointed out that by 2015, the total output value of the environmental protection and energy conservation industry will reach 600 billion yuan.

The "Planning" sets targets for the energy conservation and environmental protection industries during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period: The average annual output value of energy-saving and environmental protection industries will increase by more than 20%. By 2015, the total output value will reach 600 billion yuan, of which the annual output value of energy-saving industries will reach 180 billion yuan. Yuan, the output value of the environmental protection industry reached RMB420 billion (the output value of environmental protection equipment and service industry was 150 billion yuan, and the output value of resource recycling industry was 270 billion yuan). It is worth noting that 10 provincial-level energy-saving and environmental protection parks and 10 provincial-level or higher-level enterprise technology centers, engineering and technology research and development centers or engineering laboratories will also be built during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period.

As early as a few years ago, Guangdong had already begun exploring ways to save energy and protect the environment. In 2010, the total output value of environmental protection and energy-saving industries reached 240 billion yuan, accounting for 5.28% of the province's total GDP.

From RMB 240 billion to RMB 600 billion, how can a 2.5-fold increase in output value be achieved in just five years? The "plan" gives the answer: The government's financial support for energy-saving and environmental protection industries. In addition to subsidies, discounts, rewards, and other forms to support the construction of key projects in energy-saving and environmental protection industries, a communication and cooperation platform between government, enterprises, and financial institutions will also be established to guide and encourage social capital and offshore capital to enter the energy-saving and environmental protection industry. Allowing companies to have funds for production, but also allow energy-saving and environmentally friendly products to sell. It is understood that in order to better promote the market efficiency of energy-saving and environmental protection products, the government will expand the procurement scope of energy-saving and environmental protection products during the “12th Five-Year Plan” period, and establish and improve the technology and product export service platform to allow more outstanding energy-saving and environmental protection products to emerge. National, expand economic efficiency.

Funds are available and the market is perfect. How should the key factors of energy saving and environmental protection be solved? In addition to the traditional introduction and establishment of an independent innovation platform, our province will also set up an information exchange platform to regularly publish important information on the development of energy-saving and environmental protection industries. The network will also play a role. The e-commerce platform will be built for energy-saving environmental protection technologies and equipment. In the future, energy-saving environmental protection technologies and products will be easily completed through the Internet.

It is understood that Foshan will develop into a production base for energy-saving building materials according to local conditions. Four of the major projects in the "Planning" are Foshan's building materials industry. Cities like Shenzhen with a good glass manufacturing chain will focus on new energy-saving glass products.

The regional distribution of the energy-saving industry is based on regional characteristics. Based on this, for example, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, and Foshan will be responsible for the R&D and production bases of energy-saving refrigeration and energy-saving air-conditioning products due to their solid strength in the air-conditioning industry. Zhongshan, Zhanjiang and other household electrical appliances industrial clusters will also be built into the R&D center and production base for energy-saving appliances during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period.

The distribution of environmental protection industries will be based on local conditions. The recovery of sewage, garbage, and various types of waste has always been an urgent issue for the environmental protection industry. In the "planning" layout followed the same line of thinking: local conditions. Guangzhou and Foshan have a long-standing technology in water treatment, so the two cities will focus on building 2-3 water treatment equipment R&D bases. Guangzhou and Shenzhen are experienced in handling waste. Therefore, the two R&D and production bases for waste incineration equipment will be built on the backbone of Guangshen. Zhaoqing will also have a lot to do in the environmental protection industry. It is understood that the Asian Metal Recycling Industrial Base and the South China Renewable Resource Base will be located in Zhaoqing to undertake the recovery of metal resources and various wastes.
