2024-09-13 11:55:23

The semi-annual report of Tapai Group shows that in terms of operating conditions, the cost of cement sales per ton of Tapai Group is 194 yuan, down 33 yuan from the same period last year. On September 12, Tapai Group said that in recent years, the cement market demand has been declining, the competition has been further intensified, the cement price has been hovering at a low level, and the industry efficiency has declined sharply. In order to cope with the market competition, the company has strengthened market research and judgment, scientific response, precise policy implementation, continued to promote the work of reducing costs and increasing efficiency, continued to streamline institutions and optimize personnel, and continued to reduce weight and strengthen the body. Go into battle lightly and pay close attention to cost control.

The semi-annual report

of Tapai Group shows that in terms of operating conditions, the cost of cement sales per ton of Tapai Group is 194 yuan, down 33 yuan from the same period last year.

On September 12, Tapai Group said that in recent years, the cement market demand has been declining, the competition has been further intensified, the cement price has been hovering at a low level, and the industry efficiency has declined sharply. Internally, we will continue to promote cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, continue to streamline the organization and optimize personnel, continue to slim down and strengthen the body, reduce the burden, go into battle lightly, and pay close attention to cost control. The main measures taken in cost control are as follows:

First, reduce the cost of electricity consumption through the construction of photovoltaic power generation and energy storage projects. In respect of photovoltaic power generation, the Company is accelerating the construction of distributed photovoltaic power generation projects on the roofs of raw material sheds of various cement production enterprises. It is expected that the installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation will be doubled on the existing basis after completion, which will further reduce the cost of electricity consumption of enterprises. In respect of energy storage, the Company is constructing a user-side energy storage project. The energy storage project has the functions of peak shaving and frequency modulation, and adopts the operation mode of peak shaving and valley filling to effectively alleviate the pressure of peak power supply, increase the consumption of new energy and reduce the energy cost of enterprises.

The second is to speed up the construction of alternative fuel projects and reduce coal consumption. Waste with high calorific value is used as fuel to replace part of coal and reduce the cost of coal consumption. At present, the price of RDF is lower than price of coal to the factory. Steadily increasing the usage can reduce the cost of coal consumption of products and further reduce the cost of cement. The company plans to build alternative fuel projects for every three 5000 t/d clinker production lines, with the goal of replacing 30% of coal consumption and reducing total energy consumption.

The third is to expand the scale of alternative raw material projects, increase disposal income and reduce the use of limestone, clay, iron powder and other raw materials. At present, the company mainly operates the sludge disposal project of Huita Environmental Protection and the aluminum ash and contaminated soil disposal project of Jiaoling Branch. In the future, the company will try its best to expand the scale, enrich the disposal categories, continuously improve the disposal volume, and reduce the production cost of cement while realizing more disposal income.

Fourth, strengthen energy conservation, emission reduction and green production. Carry out ultra-low emission technical transformation of existing production lines, strengthen environmental protection management of production process, implement strict emission standards, reduce the discharge of waste gas, waste water and waste residue, and reduce the cost of environmental governance.

The five is to accelerate intelligent upgrading and digital transformation. Through the implementation of intelligent and automated transformation, through precise control to reduce the waste caused by human factors, improve the overall level of operation and management.

Sixth, we should strengthen material procurement and optimize ingredients. Through various ways to further reduce the cost of all kinds of materials into the factory, and through optimizing the batching work, more cost-effective materials are used to further reduce the cost of products on the premise of ensuring product quality.

The cement industry will soon be included in the carbon trading market, the importance of green low-carbon transformation has become increasingly apparent, and alternative fuels are an important way for enterprises to reduce costs. China Cement Network will hold the " 2024 China Cement Double Carbon Conference and the 12th Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Technology Exchange Conference " in Wuhu Conch International Hotel on October 24-25. The conference will focus on the core issues of low-carbon development and green upgrading in the cement industry, discuss the application of energy efficiency improvement and energy-saving and carbon reduction technologies, and how the cement industry can use the carbon trading mechanism to promote its low-carbon transformation.
