Shanghai energy consumption will drop 20%

China in the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" presented to the end of 2010 than the 2005 unit GDP energy consumption reduced by 20%, said Han Zheng, Shanghai has been attached great importance to the green economy and sustainable development, particularly in accelerating economic development mode to adjust the industrial structure and promote energy conservation has made positive efforts to achieve remarkable results.

Financial support from central authorities have introduced policies

Xie said the central investment of 8.83 billion yuan this year, and actively promote energy conservation to promote industrial, transportation, construction and other areas of focus and energy, raw materials, energy and other key industries.

Xie said the central government from 2006 to 2009 a total of 80.5 billion yuan of funds incentive arrangements to support the construction of key projects over the formation of 260 million tons of standard coal energy capacity to conduct the business of saving thousands of actions aiming at the international advanced level of the domestic industry to carry out energy efficiency standards activities. Accelerate the promotion of energy efficient technologies and products with the complement through the form of awards to encourage energy saving. Implementation of energy-saving products for the benefit of financial subsidies to encourage consumers to buy the work of energy-saving lamps, energy-saving air conditioners, refrigerators and energy-saving elevators, energy saving cars. Energy conservation in some cities and some pilot projects to promote new energy vehicles to encourage car appliance trade actively promote the reform of resource products pricing improved refined oil pricing mechanism.

Xie said the central government has introduced to promote the development of circular economy and resource utilization of the financial support of the policy to establish special funds to support the development of circular economy cycle of economic and technological development, demonstration, promotion and capacity-building preparation of national economic development planning cycle to establish the evaluation reflects the development of circular economy comprehensive system of indicators and statistics to promote water, land, materials and resources, comprehensive utilization of technology with the recycling economy and the market mechanism will focus on the business, park, city to achieve ecological.
