According to the notice jointly issued by Shandong Province and Shandong Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment on matters related to the ultra-low emission differential electricity price policy for cement coking enterprisesFrom January 1, 2024, if a cement enterprise fails to complete the ultra-low emission transformation on time in accordance with the requirements of the "Implementation Plan for the Ultra-low Emission Transformation of the Cement Industry in Shandong Province", all its online electricity purchases (market-based transaction electricity, power grid enterprises' ** electricity purchases, the same below) will be subject to a electricity price increase policy.
If one of the "organized emissions, unorganized emissions, and clean transportation" of cement enterprises fails to meet the requirements, the price of electricity will be increased by 0 per kilowatt hour01 yuan;Two items that do not meet the requirements of the electricity price increase of 002 yuan;The three items do not meet the requirements of the electricity price increase of 005 yuan. If all the transformation is completed, there is no increase in the price of electricity. If a cement enterprise has implemented other differentiated electricity prices (eliminated, restricted), punitive or tiered electricity price policies, it shall be implemented in accordance with the policy of the highest price increase standard, and the price increase shall not be repeated。
From January 1, 2024, the Shandong Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment will be responsible for informing the Provincial Development and Reform Commission of the ultra-low emission transformation of cement enterprises (including newly put into operation) in the province. In accordance with the provisions of this notice, the Provincial Development and Reform Commission shall announce the list of enterprises implementing differential electricity prices and the price increase standards, and notify the State Grid Shandong Electric Power Company for implementation. Cement enterprises that implement differential electricity pricesAfter the completion of the ultra-low emission transformation, the Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment will notify the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and the Provincial Development and Reform Commission will notify the power grid enterprises to stop implementing differential electricity prices. Smart Cement will continue to pay attention to the announcement of this list in the future.
As a pioneer of various policies in the domestic cement industry, Shandong Province is at the forefront of the country in eliminating backward production capacity and carrying out ultra-low emission transformation. In addition to Shandong, many regions have also proposed differentiated electricity price policies for the ultra-low emission transformation of cement enterprises
Hebei: For cement enterprises that have not completed the ultra-low emission transformation within the time limit, a differentiated electricity price policy will be implemented on the basis of the current catalogue sales electricity price or market transaction electricity price, and the price increase standard is 0$1.
HenanIf the cement enterprises in the province fail to complete the ultra-low emission transformation as required, all their online purchased electricity (including market-based trading electricity) will be subject to the electricity price increase policy. If one of the "organized emissions, unorganized emissions, and clean transportation modes" of the enterprise does not meet the ultra-low emission requirements, the price of electricity consumption will be increased by 0 per kilowatt hour01 yuan;If the two items do not meet the ultra-low emission requirements, the electricity price will be increased by 003 yuan;If all three meet the requirements of ultra-low emissions, the electricity price will be increased by 006 yuan.
Fujian: The tiered electricity price increase standard for the cement industry will be increased by 50% on the basis of the current standard.
Qinghai: The comprehensive power consumption of comparable cement and comparable clinker are more than 93kwh t and 67kwh t, respectively4 yuan kWh, in 90kwh t-93kwh t, 64kwh t-67kwh t increase 0$2 kWh.
Although the price of electricity will inevitably bring huge cost pressure to enterprises, this is the state forcing enterprises to carry out ultra-low emission transformation as soon as possible, take off the hat of high energy consumption, realize energy transformation, and take the road of green and low-carbon sustainable development. Recently, Guizhou, Shaanxi, Fujian, Zhejiang, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi and other places have announcedFunding arrangements for air pollution prevention and control, Conch, Red Lion, Nanfang, Huaxin and many other cement companies have benefited, with the highest amount exceeding 10 million yuan.
The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Finance said that in 2023, the first financial arrangement of ecological environmental protection and green and low-carbon related funds will reach 464 billion yuanIn 2024, we will continue to increase capital investmentWe will support the construction of ecological civilization and green and low-carbon development with active fiscal policies. This shows that the state's support for environmental protection transformation of enterprises will continue to increase, why not take advantage of this good opportunity to transform as soon as possible to achieve a win-win situation
