On August 17, the National Development and Reform Commission held its August press conference
.
Meng Wei, deputy director of the Political Research Office of the National Development and Reform Commission and spokesperson of the committee, made a speech and answered questions from reporters
.
In response to the "correction of the campaign to reduce carbon" mentioned in the previous Politburo meeting of the Communist Party of China, Meng Wei said that although some results have been achieved
.
However, in some places, industries, and enterprises, the focus of work is "off the track"
.
The actions taken did not meet the requirements of seeking truth from facts, respecting the law, making progress in an orderly manner, and breaking the rules first
.

Meng Wei said that "off-tracking" is mainly manifested in three aspects: First, the goal is set too high and out of reality
.
Some localities, industries, and enterprises are eager to "grab the jackpot" and set goals beyond the development stage; some places implement "one size fits all" shutdown of high-energy-consuming projects; some financial institutions suddenly suspend loans to projects such as coal and electricity
.


The second is to contain the weakness of the "two highs" actions
.
To curb the blind development of the "two highs" project is the top priority and top priority of the current carbon peak carbon neutralization work, but in some places the slogans are shouted loudly and actions cannot be kept up, and some places even launch the "two highs" project in violation of regulations.
, The problem of building first without approval is more prominent
.


The third is the weak foundation for energy conservation and emission reduction
.
Carbon neutrality is in the same line as energy conservation, emission reduction, and climate change.
In some places, energy conservation and emission reduction work is not paid enough attention, and the implementation of "dual control" of energy consumption is not effective; Energy-saving management, but hope that certain technology will solve the problem once and for all; some institutions are enthusiastic, chasing hot spots, keen on labeling and issuing brands, and carbon neutral "hats" are flying all over the sky
.



These phenomena can be said to be contrary to the original intention and requirements of carbon neutralization work, and must be resolutely corrected
.


The carbon emission market opened on July 16 has just been full moon.
According to the latest statistics from the Shanghai Environmental Energy Exchange, as of August 16, the national carbon market has been operating smoothly, with prices rising steadily, and national carbon market carbon emission quotas.
(CEA) The cumulative transaction volume was 7,018,800 tons, and the cumulative transaction volume exceeded 355 million yuan
.


According to relevant statistics, in the 22 trading days of the full moon of the national carbon market, the CEA average daily transaction volume was 319,000 tons
.
From the perspective of transaction methods, the transaction volume of the listing agreement was 5.
439 million tons, accounting for 77.
5%; the transaction volume of the listing agreement was 277 million yuan, accounting for 78.
02%
.
Among the 22 trading days, only 4 trading days had block agreements
.


It is also the gradual entry of the carbon emission market into people’s vision that will cause many speculators to speculate on carbon and disrupt the market.
It is also one of the reasons that lead to the chaos of the carbon market and the blind pursuit of popularity in some regions and institutions.
The Development and Reform Commission is working on the problem to be solved
.


At the same time, the National Development and Reform Commission also reported on the progress of curbing the blind development of the "two highs" project
.


Recently, in accordance with the deployment of the Party Central Committee, the Development and Reform Commission has carried out special inspections with relevant departments, urged localities to reduce over 350 "two highs" projects to be launched, and reduced new energy demand by 270 million tons of standard coal, which has achieved initial results
.
However, the special inspections also found that compared with the requirements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, there are still gaps in the determination and effectiveness of work in many places, and some outstanding issues still need to be resolved urgently
.


In the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will further improve and strengthen the "dual control" system for energy consumption, formulate and issue a three-year work plan, and guide all localities to do their work in a solid and orderly manner
.
Like the dual-carbon policy, there are many “one size fits all” problems across the country in terms of curbing the two high-level projects
.
Achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality is a complex, long-term and systematic project, and the project of curbing the two highs is also the same.
It requires scientific deployment of target tasks and strengthening of top-level design.

.
Regardless of whether it is a place, an industry or an enterprise, it is necessary to set goals reasonably, proceed from reality, and grasp the rhythm scientifically
.
It is necessary to properly handle the relationship between development and emission reduction, overall and partial, short-term and medium- to long-term, and the relationship between pollution reduction and carbon reduction and energy security, industrial chain supply chain security, food security, and the normal life of the people
