Guangxi: Enhance the "gold content" of economic development with ecological "green content"

Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region focuses on the construction of ecological civilization and goes all out to promote green and low-carbon transformation. The Department of Ecology and Environment of the Autonomous Region takes the synergy of pollution reduction and carbon reduction as the starting point, actively and steadily promotes carbon peak and carbon neutrality, and enhances the "gold content" of economic development with the "green content" of ecology.

China Resources Power (Hezhou) Co., Ltd., an enterprise mainly engaged in coal-fired power generation, successfully completed the quota performance and settlement of the second national carbon emission compliance cycle (2021 and 2022) in 2023, with a total of 16.3038 million tons of quotas and a market value of about 1.141 billion yuan.

The realization of surplus and the realization of "surplus food in hand" come from the continuous technological innovation, carbon reduction and emission reduction of enterprises, the transformation of the original traditional motor products to high-efficiency and energy-saving motors, and the transformation from traditional energy to green and low-carbon electricity, so as to achieve synergy in pollution reduction and carbon reduction. 

In the past year, Guangxi has actively participated in the construction of the national carbon emission trading market, and under the guidance of the Autonomous Region's Department of Ecology and Environment, 51 key emitting enterprises in the region have been included in the list of key greenhouse gas emissions in the power generation industry in 2023, with a cumulative carbon trading quota of more than 7.3 million tons and a turnover of more than 350 million yuan.

Focusing on building a green, low-carbon and circular economy system, Guangxi resolutely curbs the blind development of "high energy consumption, high emissions, and low level" projects, guides 27 projects in nonferrous metals, steel, cement and other industries to carry out carbon emission impact assessments in environmental impact assessments, and builds 18 autonomous region-level green mines, 29 national green factories and 4 green parks. The first green financial service platform in the region was completed, with a total financing of 43.343 billion yuan, helping "green" to become "gold" and serving the high-quality development of the local economy.
