Shandong launches low-carbon development plan

Recently, the People's Government of Shandong Province issued the "Shandong Province Low-Carbon Development Work Plan (2017~2020)".
The "Plan" puts forward the low-carbon development goal of Shandong Province in the 13th Five-Year Plan: By 2020, carbon dioxide emissions per unit of regional GDP will be reduced by 20.
5% compared to 2015, and the average comprehensive energy consumption of crude oil processing will be reduced to 63 kg of standard oil/ton.
, Carbon emissions fell to 158 kg of carbon dioxide / ton; the chemical industry's energy consumption per unit of industrial added value was reduced by about 15%, and carbon emissions were reduced by about 18%.
Shandong is a major industrial province and a major chemical province.
Traditional industries account for about 70% of the industry, and heavy chemical industries account for about 70% of the traditional industries.
The long-term "two 70%" industrial structure allows Shandong to consume 12% of the country's coal each year, and the total emissions of multiple pollutants rank among the top in the country.
To this end, the "Plan" proposes to promote low-carbon industrial upgrading and promote energy low-carbon transformation.
In the petrochemical industry, a series of new technologies are adopted to improve the energy-saving level of oil extraction, and to transform and upgrade the existing ethylene production system; to speed up the elimination of outdated electromechanical equipment in view of the characteristics of the many local refining enterprises in Shandong Province, and to increase the operating load and heat exchange efficiency of petroleum refining equipment, Optimize operations, reduce processing losses, create a new brand of energy-saving and low-carbon fuel for Shandong Dilian, and realize the green and sustainable development of Shandong Dilian.
In the chemical industry, the use of system energy optimization, power saving, waste heat and pressure utilization and other technologies to upgrade and transform traditional chemical equipment, promote high-efficiency and energy-saving technologies and devices; adjust product structure, control the scale of low-end production capacity, and develop high-performance, green and safe , Special chemical industrial products; encourage new coal-to-gas production enterprises to develop high value-added products such as olefins and aromatics on the basis of not increasing the total energy consumption; regulate the order of tire remanufacturing, and encourage the comprehensive utilization of rubber powder and reclaimed rubber.
The "Plan" also proposes to implement a zero-growth action plan for the use of chemical fertilizers to increase the utilization rate of chemical fertilizers; take clean and low-carbon energy as the main direction of energy structure adjustment, adhere to clean use of fossil energy and vigorously develop non-fossil energy, and strictly implement energy consumption And the total amount of dual control.
By 2020, the proportion of coal in energy consumption will drop by about 10 percentage points from the end of the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period; the proportion of natural gas and non-fossil energy consumption will both increase to about 7%.
