(2016-2020)
Catalogue
The "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period is a crucial period for Guangzhou to implement the national "four comprehensive" strategic layout and the "five in one" overall layout, consolidate and enhance its status as a national central city, and lead the province to achieve the goal of "three orientations and two firsts". It is also an important stage for building a low-carbon city in an all-round way and striving to achieve the peak of total carbon emissions. This plan is based on the National Climate Change Plan (2014-2020) and the Outline of the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development in Guangzhou, and it is the action program for Guangzhou to promote energy conservation and carbon reduction and realize green and low-carbon development in the next five years.
Chapter I Development Status and Facing Situation
Since the Twelfth Five-Year Plan,In accordance with the requirements of the state and province, Guangzhou regards promoting energy conservation and carbon reduction as an important starting point to promote scientific development, actively explores new fields and mechanisms of energy conservation and carbon reduction, and pays special attention to energy conservation and carbon reduction in industries, construction, transportation, public institutions and other fields, and has achieved remarkable results.
Section 1 Development Status
During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, Guangzhou supported an average annual GDP growth rate of 10.1% with an average annual energy consumption growth rate of 3.6%, and the dependence of economic growth on energy consumption gradually decreased. In 2015, the energy consumption per unit GDP (regional GDP) in Guangzhou decreased by 21.01% compared with that in 2010, exceeding the tasks assigned by the province. The energy consumption per unit GDP is about 60% of the national average, which is lower than the average level of Guangdong Province and also lower than that of major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. In 2015, the city’s total energy consumption was 56.89 million tons of standard coal, and the carbon dioxide emission per unit GDP was about 0.67 tons, down 30.7% from 2010. The main driving force for the decline of carbon emission intensity comes from the improvement of energy efficiency and the sharp decline in the proportion of coal consumption.
First, the management system and mechanism of energy conservation and carbon reduction have been continuously improved
Guangzhou has built a relatively complete energy-saving management and service system. Set up a leading group for energy conservation, emission reduction and low-carbon economic development in Guangzhou to promote energy conservation, emission reduction and low-carbon development in the city as a whole. Establish an energy-saving target responsibility system to promote energy-saving work by district governments and key energy-using enterprises. Strengthen planning guidance and policy support,A series of policy documents have been issued, such as Guiding Opinions on Vigorously Developing Low-carbon Economy, Implementation Plan for Pilot Work of Low-carbon Cities in Guangzhou, and Work Plan for Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction in the Twelfth Five-Year Plan of Guangzhou. Intensify the pilot construction, and it has been listed as "national low-carbon city pilot", "national renewable resource recycling system pilot city", "national low-carbon transportation system pilot city", "national kitchen waste resource utilization and harmless treatment pilot city" and "creating a national circular economy demonstration city". Establish and improve the energy-saving evaluation system for fixed assets investment projects, strictly limit the development of energy-intensive industries, and actively promote advanced energy-saving technologies. Set up special funds for energy conservation to support energy-saving transformation and clean production in industry, construction, transportation, public institutions and other fields, and the city’s strategic emerging industries development funds are used to support the development of six emerging industries, including new energy and energy-saving and environmental protection industries. Guangzhou Carbon Emissions Exchange was established and became an important carbon trading platform in China. Guangzhou Energy Conservation Supervision Center was established to strengthen energy conservation supervision and law enforcement.
Second, the structure has achieved remarkable results in energy saving and carbon reduction
The industrial structure has been continuously optimized, and the tertiary industrial structure has been adjusted from 1.75∶37.24∶61.01 in 2010 to 1.25 ∶ 31.64 ∶ 67.11 in 2015. The advanced manufacturing industry has developed rapidly. In 2015, the added value of strategic emerging industries accounted for more than 10% of GDP, and the output value of high-tech products accounted for 45% of industry. Intensify the elimination of backward production capacity, "Twelfth Five-Year Plan"During this period, a total of 117,000 kilowatts of small thermal power, 240,000 tons of coke, 5,000 tons of paper, 300,000 tons of cement, 10.755 million weight boxes of flat glass, 122.81 million meters of printing and dyeing, 1.09 million standard sheets of tanning, and 69,120 kva of lead batteries were eliminated, and 314 industrial enterprises with high energy consumption and high pollution were closed and relocated in the urban area. Vigorously promote the adjustment and optimization of energy structure, complete the rectification of 1,298 highly polluting fuel boilers, and the proportion of coal consumption in total energy consumption decreased from 32.4% in 2010 to 19.8% in 2015. 7,943.76 kilometers of natural gas pipeline network has been built, and the gasification rate of gas has reached 99.7%.

Section 2 Facing the Situation
The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed that we must adhere to the basic national policy of conserving resources and protecting the environment, and strive to promote green development, circular development and low-carbon development.Form a spatial pattern, industrial structure, production mode and lifestyle that saves resources and protects the environment. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of Ecological Civilization, and the construction of ecological civilization has become a national strategy. Innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing have become the five development concepts leading the country’s future development, bringing important development opportunities for Guangzhou’s "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" energy conservation and carbon reduction work.
Coping with climate change has become one of the major issues of global concern. As an important starting point to deal with improving the environment and climate change, energy saving and carbon reduction has become the core task to achieve sustainable development. In April, 2016, China officially signed the Paris Agreement, and it is planned that carbon dioxide emissions will peak around 2030, and efforts will be made to reach the peak as soon as possible. As a national central city and a national pilot low-carbon city, Guangzhou strives to achieve the peak of total carbon emissions first, and it is urgent to explore the path of gradual decline of total carbon emissions while maintaining economic and social development. Although the work of energy conservation and carbon reduction in Guangzhou has laid a good foundation and achieved remarkable results, there are still many challenges to continuously promote energy conservation and carbon reduction.
First, the awareness of energy conservation and carbon reduction needs to be improved. Governments at all levels and relevant departments do not have a unified understanding of the important role of energy saving and carbon reduction in transforming economic development mode and realizing sustainable development strategy, and the relationship between economic growth and low-carbon development has not been organically combined. The concept of focusing on environmental protection in the later stage and neglecting energy conservation and emission reduction at the source is still widespread, and the basic and leading role of energy conservation and carbon reduction in environmental protection and ecological construction has not been effectively played.The whole society has not yet formed a green and low-carbon consciousness and lifestyle to save resources and protect the environment.
Second, the green low-carbon market needs to be cultivated urgently. Energy conservation and carbon reduction are still mainly promoted by government administrative means, and the market has failed to play a major role in energy conservation and carbon reduction. The investment and financing channels in the green and low-carbon market are not smooth, which fails to provide financial guarantee for the development of related industries. The scale of energy-saving and low-carbon enterprises is generally small, the industrial concentration is low, and the technical development ability is insufficient. The leading role of leading backbone enterprises needs to be further improved. The development of new service industries such as energy-saving and low-carbon consulting, evaluation, auditing and technical services is lagging behind.
Third, the coverage of energy-saving work needs to be expanded. Energy-saving work relies too much on industrial structure adjustment and industrial energy saving. At present, the tertiary industry and living energy consumption have exceeded 50% of the total energy consumption in the city, and it continues to rise with the improvement of living and consumption level. Energy conservation and carbon reduction work should gradually realize the transformation from focusing on industry and major projects to multi-fields and the whole society from point to area.
Fourth, the measurement and statistics work needs to be strengthened. Energy measuring instruments in some industries are not fully equipped, and the online monitoring and management system of energy consumption has not been widely covered. The statistical system of energy consumption is relatively backward, and the monitoring and statistical system of carbon dioxide emission has not yet been established, which affects the analysis of energy consumption and carbon emission situation and the development of energy conservation and carbon reduction.
