Increase gold content with green content

-- Actively yet prudently promoting peak carbon neutrality

In the filament production workshop of a 5G smart factory in Tongxiang, Zhejiang Province, relying on big data + cloud computing system, the energy consumption of the whole production process is displayed on the large screen: the production source, the use of stock solution coloring technology to produce dye-free fibers, and the printing and dyeing process alone can reduce the sewage discharge of 6 million tons per year; At the end of the process, the ultra-low pressure steam recovery and condensate recovery technology can reduce solid waste by 95% and greenhouse gas emissions by 65% per year. The continuous improvement of the green manufacturing system, including green workshops, reflects the remarkable results of promoting the green and low-carbon transformation of production methods in China.

From the carbon peak implementation plan announced across the country, energy green low-carbon transformation, industrial optimization and upgrading have become the common pursuit of development goals. Facing the future, only by strengthening the leading role of the "double carbon" goal on industrial development and focusing on building a green and low-carbon economic system can we enhance the "gold content" of the industry with the "green content" of development and inject inexhaustible impetus for high-quality development.

Achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality not only puts forward urgent requirements for industrial structure adjustment, but also provides strategic opportunities for industrial structure optimization and upgrading. Only by transforming the mode of economic development and accelerating the formation of an industrial structure with high scientific and technological content, low resource consumption and less environmental pollution can development and emission reduction be balanced and the goal of "dual carbon" be gradually realized. In Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, Xugong Group continuously promotes the green management of the supply chain, and drives enterprises to carry out green technology and green lean manufacturing throughout the life cycle by ensuring supplier access and incorporating green indicators into the assessment system. In Suzhou, Anhui province, the floating photovoltaic power station makes the "waste water" into a new power station carrier, and realizes the "waste into treasure" in the coal mining subsidence area. This shows that accelerating the green and low-carbon transformation of development mode and adhering to green and low-carbon development as a solution to ecological and environmental problems can strengthen the green background of high-quality development, significantly improve the green degree of economic development, and continue to enhance the potential and durability of development.

It is necessary to realize that traditional industries are related to the livelihood needs of the people such as food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the integrity of the industrial chain and supply chain. In the green and low-carbon transformation, we should also insist on promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and cannot simply withdraw from them as "low-end industries". Through the implementation of the new development concept and the realization of green development, traditional industries are not only not a burden, but also create new wealth. For example, Yunnan Aluminum Company, the aluminum ash in the previous aluminum electrolytic melting and casting production process "can not be buried, burned unclean, no one wants", now rely on new technology to recover about 20,000 tons of alumina in aluminum ash every year, creating a value of more than 20 million yuan. This inspires us to promote the upgrading of processes, technologies and equipment, achieve green and low-carbon transformation, and continuously improve the added value of industries. Traditional industries have a lot to do, and practitioners can do a lot.

Energy is the main battlefield to promote carbon peak carbon neutrality. It should be noted that the overall situation of China's energy resource endowment is rich in coal, poor in oil and less gas. In the long run, with the in-depth promotion of clean and low-carbon energy transformation, China will gradually get rid of fossil energy dependence. The establishment of a safe and sustainable energy supply system with non-fossil energy as the main body is conducive to the deep decarbonization and intrinsic security of the energy sector, and truly hold the energy rice bowl firmly in our own hands. Give full play to the advantages of China's complete industrial system and ultra-large scale market, develop renewable energy represented by photovoltaic, wind power, etc., and transform the energy industry from "resource attribute" to "manufacturing attribute", which will effectively promote the transformation and upgrading of the energy industry, and energy security, independent and controllable.

On the mainland, the formation of green production methods has accelerated, and the green industry has a good momentum of development and is becoming a new growth point of economic development. On the new journey, seize the new development opportunities brought by the "double carbon" goal, promote the adjustment and optimization of the industrial structure and energy structure, transformation and upgrading, we will be able to accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of the development mode, and constantly create a new situation of high-quality development.
