[Abstract]:
Enterprises that do not have emission control targets will be banned from discharging pollutants, and enterprises can sell for profit by saving excess pollutant discharge indicators through sewage treatment. At present, China’s “sewage rights selling” model piloted in some eastern coastal provinces and cities has triggered representatives of the two people’s congresses. Hot discussion.

"Promoting the paid use and trading of emission rights is a useful exploration to solve environmental problems with market economy means, and it is a major reform and innovation in environmental protection and pollution reduction work," Lu Zushan, deputy of the National People's Congress and Zhejiang Province, told reporters.

Just before the opening of the two sessions this year, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Environmental Protection approved the Zhejiang Province to carry out pilot projects for the use and trading of COD (chemical oxygen demand) emission rights in the Hangjiahu area and the Qiantang River basin in the Taihu Lake Basin, and to carry out sulfur dioxide in Zhejiang Province. The paid use and trading pilot of emission rights has marked the entry into the substantive implementation stage of the paid use and trading pilot of Zhejiang's emission rights.

Wang Baoan, director of the Department of Economic Construction of the Ministry of Finance, said in an interview on the 4th that the two ministries had approved the approval of Jiangsu Province to carry out pilot projects for the use and trading of emission rights in the Taihu Lake Basin and Tianjin Binhai New Area. It is of great significance for China to construct a long-term mechanism for energy conservation and emission reduction from the system.

Emissions trading means that within a certain area, under the premise that the total amount of pollutants discharged does not exceed the allowable discharge, the internal pollution sources exchange the amount of pollutants by means of currency exchange, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the amount of pollutants and protecting the environment. . This concept was first proposed by the American economist Dale in the 1970s and is currently widely used abroad.

Wang Baoan pointed out that the paid use and trading pilot of emission rights has the core of paid use of emission rights, and uses market transactions as a means to build a sewage price system that reflects the scarcity of environmental resources, supply and demand, and pollution control costs through mechanism and institutional innovation. It is an institutional leapfrog that realizes the protection of the environment by relying mainly on administrative means to comprehensively apply economic, legal and necessary administrative means.

“Simply, for example, if a company can discharge 100 tons of sewage according to various approvals, it can only discharge 80 tons of sewage through sewage treatment and other methods. The surplus 20 tons of sewage can be sold. Others need The company can buy it," explained Bao Jingling, deputy of the National People's Congress, Tianjin Environmental Protection Bureau and Tianjin Environmental Protection Academy.

At the end of last year, Minister of Environmental Protection Zhou Shengxian pointed out to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on the current work on water pollution prevention and control that at present, China's water environment security is still facing threats, and pollution reduction is under tremendous pressure, and the completion of the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" The total emission of major pollutants proposed in the planning outline is still far from the target of 10% reduction in 2005.

In this regard, the National People's Congress, Wenzhou City Federation of Industry and Commerce Vice President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Huafeng Group, You Xiaoping said that the cyanobacteria in the Taihu Lake Basin and the Qiantang River Basin have once again sounded the ecological alarm, and the introduction of the emission trading system will promote Enterprises improve technology and reduce pollution. As a market-based control strategy, polluters with poor returns and serious pollution will be at a disadvantage in market competition. This prevents the polluter from using this part of the rights, making the environmental quality level higher than the environmental standards.

"Now many high-pollution industries such as textiles and chemicals have begun to consciously tap the potential of energy-saving and emission-reduction. As everyone knows, once the emission-rights indicators are wasted, the loss is money, and when the indicators are tight, they can’t buy them, which directly affects new projects. Run." You Xiaoping said.

The reporter learned in the interview that as early as November 2007, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province took the lead in implementing emissions trading in the country. The main pollutant emission indicators COD and sulfur dioxide required for new construction projects must be passed from old enterprises through emission reduction projects. Cut down. Only when the right to discharge pollutants is purchased can new projects be allowed to enter the market, otherwise the company will face a series of penalties such as water cuts, blackouts, and production suspensions.
 
In 2008, Jiaxing City also took the lead in setting up the emission trading reserve trading center in the country. In the whole year, the city and county (urban) achieved a total of 136 emissions trading transactions, with a transaction volume of 119 million yuan.
 
Bao Jingling said that there are now many enterprises in Tianjin that mainly deal with emissions trading, and the benefits are good. At present, Tianjin is trying to establish a trading platform for emissions trading, so that buyers and sellers with needs can go to this platform to trade. In the future, we can also try to establish a “green bank for emission rights”. If the emission rights of enterprises are not sold, they can be deposited in this bank. In the future, the value of value-added will be realized, and pollution control will be transformed from a burden to a profit point for enterprises.
 
Regarding the promotion prospects of the pilot of emissions trading, many representatives said in an interview that due to the financial crisis, the prices of many raw materials and resource products have been greatly reduced, and some resource-consumption enterprises may have to rise to the current energy conservation and emission reduction. Bringing pressure, it is of great significance to accelerate the promotion of emissions trading in this situation.
 
At the same time, because the right to discharge pollutants is a new thing, involving all aspects of environmental protection and pollution reduction, the work is very complicated. Whether it is intra-provincial transactions, cross-regional transactions or cross-regional transactions, there are still many problems to be solved, such as some enterprises because of their own development needs. Unwilling to transfer the right to discharge pollutants, whether the cross-regional transactions can be affected by regional restrictions, etc., all need to be continuously summarized and explored in the future.
