The Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Further Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-style Modernization, which was reviewed and approved at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, proposed to improve the green and low-carbon development mechanism. Reporters learned that the Beijing Urban Sub-Center has thoroughly implemented the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, focusing on the most distinctive feature of "green", and deeply promoting the construction of a national green development demonstration zone.
Leading green construction, foundation pit air film reduces dust and noise
Looking down from the sky, a huge white "balloon" shrouds the construction site on the east side of the Yudai River Bridge. The sponge city flood control pump station and water storage and purification pool project will be carried out in this "big balloon" from its launch to completion by the end of next year, thereby reducing dust, noise and other pollution. This sponge city foundation pit air membrane project is currently the largest in span and area in the city, and the first "foundation pit air membrane" used in the entire construction cycle. The gases generated at the construction site inside the membrane must first pass through the purification device before being discharged into the atmosphere.
"We focus on process management and lead green construction." Chen Xiaofeng, member of the Party Working Committee of the Sub-Center, deputy director of the Management Committee, and temporary Party Secretary and Director of the Sub-Center Engineering Office, said that the Sub-Center will strengthen the application of artificial intelligence, big data, and 5G technologies, and promote the application of foundation pit air membrane technology and new energy machinery. Integrate green concepts into the entire process of key engineering projects, connect green construction, production, circulation and other links, and achieve deep integration of green high-quality building products and construction processes.
At the same time, the sub-center took the lead in carrying out the construction of "green building +" demonstration scenes. It created a smart construction supervision platform based on BIM + Internet of Things technology, introduced on-site supervision, and promoted effective supervision of the entire process of progress, cost, quality, and green construction.
The sub-center focuses on energy use structure and leads low-carbon demonstration. Chen Xiaofeng said that Beijing's first medium-deep geothermal demonstration project was implemented in the transportation hub project of the sub-center station in the city, which verified the technical feasibility of the 2,745-meter-deep geothermal well heat pump system for hub heating. "The project is currently being approved and will start this year and be put into use in the second half of next year."
The "Zero Carbon" Park in the Urban Green Heart was selected as a case study of energy green and low-carbon transformation
The chemical plant that used to be filled with thick smoke has been transformed into a city's "green lung" for citizens to check in. The low-carbon and green Beijing Urban Sub-Center Green Heart Park has won another national honor. The "zero-carbon" park in the city's green heart jointly built by Tongzhou Power Supply Company and Beijing Capital Group was successfully selected as a case study of energy green and low-carbon transformation by the National Energy Administration this year.
From the earliest planning and design to construction and operation and management, the Urban Green Heart has adopted energy-saving and carbon-reduction measures. For example, with the smart grid as the hub platform of the low-carbon energy system, the energy supply mainly includes photovoltaics, ground-source heat pumps and green electricity entering Beijing. In terms of soil pollution treatment, the Green Heart accelerates the improvement of regional carbon sinks through ecological restoration. In terms of architecture, the smart energy management system is also integrated to carry out the construction of three-star green buildings and the reuse and renovation of industrial plants.
"We have explored and formed an energy transformation and development path of bringing in green electricity, adding data, improving efficiency and sinking carbon in Beijing's sub-urban center. Green Heart Park is the best example." Qiu Mingquan, general manager of State Grid Beijing Tongzhou Power Supply Company, said that bringing in green electricity means building a strong and reliable power grid to ensure that green electricity from outside the region can be "brought in, settled and supplied well"; adding data means enhancing the digital and intelligent operation capabilities of the power grid; improving efficiency means promoting the construction of an urban smart energy management system to serve the comprehensive utilization of multiple energy sources such as electricity, gas, heat and oil, and improve energy utilization efficiency; sinking carbon means conducting precise monitoring of regional carbon emissions based on a "one map of electricity and carbon" to guide the whole society to save energy and reduce carbon emissions.
He said that the path of "attracting green, adding data, improving efficiency and sinking carbon" will be gradually promoted in more areas such as the administrative office area and the Tongzhou campus of Renmin University of China in the future, to help the high-quality green development of Beijing's sub-center.
Provide support for enriching the types of participants in the voluntary emission reduction trading market
On January 22, 2024, the national voluntary greenhouse gas emission reduction trading market was officially launched. As the operating and management agency of the national voluntary greenhouse gas emission reduction trading system, Beijing Green Exchange provides centralized and unified trading and settlement services for certified voluntary emission reductions (CCERs).
Mei Dewen, vice chairman of Beijing Green Exchange, said that in the future, Beijing Green Exchange will do a good job in the operation and management of the trading platform, provide high-quality centralized and unified trading and settlement services for CCER, and do a solid job in the operation and management of the national voluntary greenhouse gas emission reduction trading system.
In addition, we will continue to strengthen market capacity building. We will carry out relevant training on "certified voluntary emission reduction trading" to help more market participants master CCER-related knowledge and skills. At the same time, we will enrich trading entities. As trading entities continue to expand, the Beijing Green Exchange will also provide support for enriching the types of participants in the voluntary emission reduction trading market, expanding the market scale, and increasing trading activity.
Cooperate with Tongzhou District to build the first city-level ESG data center in China
In recent years, the role of ESG (environment, society and corporate governance) in promoting sustainable development and transformation has received widespread attention. Huang Bo, director of the Beijing ESG Research Institute, said that in order to better support the construction of the National Green Development Demonstration Zone, the Beijing ESG Research Institute took the lead in the sub-center and actively carried out multi-level and multi-scenario ESG practice work.
"For example, we published the first national reference book on ESG information disclosure, and carefully sorted out more than 400 commonly used important indicators. The explanation of the indicators was really detailed to such an in-depth level as why they are needed, how to derive them, and how to use them." Huang Bo said that the institute also cooperated with the Beijing Development and Reform Commission to compile my country's first ESG local standard, the "Beijing Enterprise ESG Disclosure Guidelines."
The Institute is cooperating with relevant committees and bureaus in Tongzhou District to try to incorporate the Chinese-style ESG social contribution evaluation system into policy and institutional innovation in scenarios such as services for enterprises entering the district, government investment, rewards and subsidies, and ESG governance of state-owned enterprises. It hopes that in the construction of the city's sub-center, scientific methods can be used to support the priority transfer and allocation of valuable factors and resources to those enterprises with high social contributions.
The institute is also cooperating with Tongzhou District to prepare for the construction of the country's first city-level ESG data center and establish a "one enterprise, one file" ESG working mechanism in the sub-center.
Integrate the concept of green development into the entire process of high-quality development of the sub-center
Meng Jingwei, secretary of the Tongzhou District Committee, said that the city's sub-center has thoroughly implemented the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, focusing on the most distinctive feature of "green", and deeply promoting the construction of a national green development demonstration zone. On the one hand, more attention is paid to system integration. In order to implement the implementation plan for the construction of a national green development demonstration zone in the city's sub-center approved by the State Council, three lists of tasks, policies, and matters requiring national support policies and annual key points have been issued, and a working mechanism for the joint meeting of municipal departments has been established and improved. This year, a series of supporting policies will also be promoted to better enable reform and development.
At the same time, more emphasis will be placed on highlighting key points. Focusing on the "three key areas" of construction, transportation, and industry, and strengthening the "three key supports" of energy, ecology, and culture, the sub-center of the city will be the first in the city to implement the green building three-star standard for newly built large public buildings, and carry out pilot projects such as comprehensive evaluation of energy consumption and carbon emissions, climate investment and financing, and forestry carbon sinks, focusing on promoting the large-scale use of renewable energy, the realization of the value of ecological products, the application of green technologies, and industrial agglomeration, and accelerating the release of development vitality.
In addition, more attention is paid to the effectiveness of reform. The sub-center of the city takes high-quality development as the "touchstone" to test the effectiveness of reform, studies and proposes a work promotion system of "using green to generate money", accelerates the construction of a green development standard system, plans to create a number of benchmark demonstration projects, and strives to integrate the concept of green development into the entire process of high-quality development in all areas of the sub-center of the city, so that reform measures can be transformed into tangible development results.
