The four departments issued documents to promote the green innovation and high-quality development of the refining industry

　　China Securities Network News (Reporter Liu Liliang) The National Development and Reform Commission reported on October 25 that recently, the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Energy Administration and other four departments jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Green Innovation and High-quality Development of the Oil Refining Industry" (referred to as the "Opinions"). The "Opinions" proposed that by 2025, the domestic crude oil primary processing capacity will be controlled within 1 billion tons, the 10 million ton refining capacity will account for about 55%, the capacity structure and productivity layout will be gradually optimized, the strength of technical equipment will be further enhanced, the efficiency of energy and resource utilization will be further improved, and the energy efficiency of refining capacity will reach the benchmark level in principle, which is better than the benchmark level by more than 30%. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, pollutant emissions and carbon emission intensity have further decreased, and green development has achieved remarkable results.

　　By 2030, the capacity structure and productivity layout will be further optimized, the guarantee capacity of chemical raw materials and special products will be greatly improved, the proportion of refining capacity with energy efficiency and environmental protection performance reaching the benchmark level will be greatly increased, and the strength of technology and equipment and the efficiency of energy and resource utilization will reach the international advanced level. Green hydrogen refining, carbon dioxide capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) and other technologies have completed industrialization and large-scale demonstration and verification, and a number of green and low-carbon benchmark enterprises that can be learned and replicated will be built to support the peak of national carbon emissions before 2030.
