Core reminder: Xie Zhenhua, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, revealed that this year will arrange 33.3 billion yuan in the central budget and about 50 billion yuan in central financial funds to support the implementation of key energy-saving and emission reduction projects.

    "From the data point of view, China has completed the emission reduction targets in advance, but there is still a big gap between the energy saving and the" Eleventh Five-Year Plan "goals, and the task is still quite arduous." On the afternoon of March 10, three times in the 11th National People's Congress At a press conference held at the conference, Xie Zhenhua, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, revealed that this year, the central budget will invest 33.3 billion yuan, and the central financial fund will be about 50 billion yuan to support the implementation of key energy conservation and emission reduction projects.

    Xie Zhenhua pointed out that this year is the year in which the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” energy-saving and emission reduction targets are met. Measures must be taken to ensure the achievement of this year's energy-saving targets and to ensure that the “Eleventh Five-Year” energy-saving and emission reduction planning goals are fully achieved. These measures mainly include: strengthening the assessment of target responsibilities and implementing the accountability system; strictly controlling the "two highs" projects and continuing to vigorously eliminate backward production capacity; increasing funding support; earnestly focusing on key areas and comprehensively promoting industry, construction, transportation, Energy saving and emission reduction of public institutions, distribution services, rural and agriculture; accelerate the promotion of energy saving and emission reduction technologies and products, continue to implement the benefits of energy-saving products for the people; improve economic policies, and steadily promote the price of resource products and environmental protection charges Reform; vigorously develop a circular economy; improve regulations and strict law enforcement.

    First, in the field of pollution reduction indicators, we will further extend and expand, and appropriately increase the types of indicators for the total control of major pollutants to include agricultural pollution. Second, in terms of specific measures to reduce emissions, more attention is paid to structural emissions reduction, and environmental protection and pollution reduction are used to promote the adjustment of industrial structure and the transformation of economic development.
