At the recent Central Economic Work Conference, five "must be coordinated" were put forward. First, we must coordinate the relationship between an effective market and a promising government to form an economic order that is both "flexible" and "manageable". Fourth, we must coordinate the relationship between optimizing the increment and revitalizing the stock, and comprehensively improve the efficiency of resource allocation.
In terms of doing a good job in next year's economic work, the meeting stressed that we should do a good job in policy "combination boxing". We will strengthen coordination and coordination of fiscal, monetary, employment, industrial, regional, trade, environmental protection, regulatory and other policies and reform and opening-up initiatives, improve effective communication, consultation and feedback mechanisms among departments, and enhance policy synergy.
The meeting decided to focus on nine key tasks next year, the first of which is to vigorously boost consumption, improve investment efficiency and expand domestic demand in an all-round way.
The meeting pointed out that we should consciously use the scientific judgment of the Party Central Committee on the situation to unify our thinking, will and action, so as to grasp the general situation, strengthen our confidence, face up to difficulties and keep sober. We should vigorously enhance the effectiveness of implementation, fully mobilize the initiative and creativity of grass-roots units, continuously optimize the business environment, and better cohere the joint efforts to promote high-quality development.
The meeting emphasized that we should strengthen the Party's leadership over economic work, adhere to the principle of doing first, enhance confidence, face difficulties and work hard to ensure the implementation of the Party Central Committee's decision-making and deployment. We should persist in seeking truth and pragmatism and resolutely oppose formalism and bureaucracy that are keen on the performance of their superiors, not responsible for their subordinates and do not consider the actual results. In addition to resource conditions, choosing a good business environment is also an important factor for
market participants to invest in cement projects. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to deepening the reform of "releasing control clothing" and optimizing the business environment. Continuously improving the convenience of investment and construction and simplifying the approval and conditions of production and operation of enterprises are the two most important contents of reforming and optimizing the business environment. In July
2020, the General Office of the State Council issued the Implementation Opinions on Further Optimizing the Business Environment and Better Serving the Main Body of the Market. The first item of the Opinion is to continuously improve the convenience of investment and construction. Optimize and reengineer the pre-approval process of investment projects. Starting from "one thing" in the early stage of the project, we should improve the working mechanism of departments. The second is to simplify the examination and approval and conditions for the production and operation of enterprises.
If the problems encountered in the process of enterprise investment and construction and production and operation can not be solved in a timely and responsible manner, how can investment benefit come? Where is the efficiency of resource allocation? Let alone optimize the business environment. We should be able to control whether the investment of the
main body of investment is in conformity with the regulations and whether it is in conformity with the law, and let go of the projects that are in conformity with the regulations. When problems arise in investment and production and operation, relevant departments should coordinate and cooperate with each other, communicate effectively, negotiate and give timely feedback, and be responsible to the lower levels, so that investors can understand how to comply with the regulations and how to rectify the existing problems. Delay, the project can not be put into operation normally, investors can not get a return on investment, managers are not conducive to the construction of pro-Qing political and commercial relations, is not conducive to improving the government's commitment mechanism.
Cement investment project investment is not small, in addition to the production of cement, now the project is basically a local pillar industry, but also more or less linked to local environmental governance. Can't always attract investment, easy to say! When the project is completed, let's talk about it! If the project can not be put into operation normally, it will also affect the local employment, environmental improvement and business environment optimization to a certain extent. The new dry process cement clinker production line project of
Henan Huanshan Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. with a daily output of 5500 tons and co-disposal of 100000 tons of waste power generation fly ash, with a total investment of 1 billion yuan, was built in September 2022 and completed in October 2023. Upgrading from single-line production scale is also conducive to energy saving and consumption reduction. The next step is to use (local) alternative fuels, which also has great prospects for carbon reduction. Whether the
project can be admitted or not, the standard conditions of the cement industry shall be implemented. According to the standard conditions, the construction of cement clinker projects must adhere to the equivalent or reduced replacement to curb the growth of cement clinker production capacity. Specifically, it is to implement the Implementation Measures for Capacity Replacement of Cement Glass Industry issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. If in the process of implementation, the parties have different opinions on some provisions of the Implementation Measures, they should be interpreted and unified by the bodies that formulate the Measures. Enterprises should not only "take the blame". In the early stage of the
project, according to the understanding and requirements of the capacity replacement method of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the county, city and province submitted for approval the capacity replacement scheme of the new dry process cement clinker production line of Henan Huanshan Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. with a daily output of 5500 tons and a co-disposal of 100000 tons of fly ash from garbage power generation. If we say that in the early stage of work, the competent authorities have announced the abolition of the capacity replacement plan for the project, that is, not to approve access, although it has an impact, but not too much. But if the project is completed, and then go back to abolish the capacity replacement plan, and do not negotiate with investors after the abolition of the disposal plan, the project suddenly becomes a non-compliant project, so the project can not be accepted, can not handle production permits, in a word, the project is hanging. Obviously, such a business environment has to make investors suspicious.
Henan Province implements the fifteenth item of the rectification task list of the third round of the Central Eco-environmental Protection Supervision Report, which requires Xinxiang City to abolish the capacity replacement documents issued by Huixian City and Weihui City in violation of regulations. If it is only broken but not established, it can not be said that the rectification has been completed without negotiating the remedial plan for capacity replacement! The fifteenth item of the
rectification task list requires Xinxiang City to check the actual production capacity of the new 5500 tons/day cement clinker production line of Huanshan Environmental Protection Technology Company in Xinxiang City, and to complete the rectification of the over-capacity problem in accordance with the law and regulations by the end of December 2025. Strengthen daily supervision and eliminate overcapacity production. This requires the competent department to instruct the design unit to explain the production scale, and if it is a batch of small and large construction, it should be handled according to the requirements of cement industry capacity management. If the design unit has a certain production capacity margin due to the disposal of fly ash in the production line, the enterprise shall make a commitment to produce according to the registered production capacity without disposal of fly ash. Moreover, the annual clinker production line list will increase the annual output content, which will facilitate the effective supervision of the society.
The Central Economic Work Conference pointed out that we should grasp the policy orientation, stress the timing and strength, and ensure that all work can be carried out as early as possible and firmly, so as to ensure sufficient strength. In view of the bottleneck constraints of industrial transformation and upgrading, we should promote the smooth continuation and transformation of new and old kinetic energy. In view of the concerns and demands of enterprises in their operation, we should strengthen policy support and optimize regulatory services; We should vigorously enhance the effectiveness of implementation, fully mobilize the initiative and creativity of grass-roots units, continuously optimize the business environment, and better cohere the joint efforts to promote high-quality development. The rotary kiln barrel corresponding to the original two clinker production lines, which
is now used for capacity replacement of the project, did not have the capacity to resume production one year ago. However, the upgraded clinker production line can not carry out all the work before production, and the new and old kinetic energy can not be smoothly converted. Investment efficiency and resource allocation efficiency are out of the question.
All work can be done early and firmly grasped. Henan Huanshan Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. has a daily output of 5500 tons to co-dispose of 100000 tons of fly ash from garbage power generation. It has been 10 months since the feedback from the central supervision of ecological environment protection. Should there be a solid statement on how to rectify it? Before the end of March, the list of cement clinker production lines in 2024 will be published again. The project can no longer be like the list of cement clinker production lines in 2023, or the environmental protection of Huocha Village will not be seen. It is still the two projects of Mengfen Village and Jishui Town in Mengzhuang Town that have no production capacity in December 2023 before the relocation and merger!
