Meeting on the Demonstration of Compliance Thresholds for Chemical Plant Construction Held

Thread Content

On March 31, the China Chemical Industry Construction Enterprises Association held an expert symposium in Beijing on the compliance threshold for energy consumption per unit of output in chemical project construction. The participating experts jointly deliberated on the standard for the permissible level of energy consumption per unit of output during the construction phase of chemical projects, as proposed by the association (i.e., the compliance threshold). Based on on-site verification, these compliance threshold values have a solid data foundation, are in line with the actual conditions of chemical industry construction, and are consistent with existing industry standards; thus they can be used as core indicators for the calculation and evaluation of energy consumption and carbon emissions in chemical industry construction at this stage. 　　It is understood that the compliance threshold refers to the **or the upper limit on performance consumption set by the industry. Zheng Jianhua, vice chairman of the China Chemical Industry Construction Enterprise Association, presented the “Demonstration Report on the Compliance Thresholds for Energy Consumption per Unit of Output in Chemical Project Construction Enterprises”. The report explains the reasons for establishing compliance thresholds for chemical plant construction from four aspects: the institutional necessity for achieving the **\"dual carbon\" goals, the objective requirement to fill existing gaps in the industry, the foundational support for standardizing carbon emission accounting in this sector, and the policy tools designed to guide the industry toward green and low-carbon development. At the same time, the report explains in detail the significance of establishing compliance thresholds for chemical plant construction from aspects such as government regulation, industry development, and enterprise management. 　　The participating experts conducted in-depth discussions and rigorous demonstrations regarding the thresholds outlined in the report. Experts unanimously agree that the research on energy consumption limits during the construction phase of chemical plants, initiated by the China Chemical Engineering Construction Enterprises Association, has filled a gap in domestic industry standards. It provides crucial quantitative data for controlling construction-related energy consumption from the outset, as well as for standardizing corporate carbon emission accounting and energy-saving assessments, making its contributions highly significant. The binding indicators set by the association are of great significance in phasing out energy-intensive construction techniques, promoting energy-saving innovations, regulating market competition, guiding the green development of the industry, and providing a basis for government supervision and enterprises to benchmark against best practices.
