Shandong will implement new energy consumption equal elimination system

Recently, it was learned from the Energy Conservation Office of Shandong Province that the province will adopt a more stringent source control system for high-energy-consuming and high-emission industries, that is, implement a new energy consumption equal elimination system for construction projects. Any new energy-consuming projects in the region will be added. The backward production capacity with the same amount of energy must be eliminated, otherwise the investment authority cannot approve.
To this end, Shandong Province will further strictly enforce the national and provincial regulations and policies on strengthening energy conservation assessments, and strictly manage the management of assessment, environmental impact assessment and safety assessment, and establish a linkage mechanism for project auditing departments. New projects such as iron and steel, aluminum smelting, calcium carbide, coke, and other high-energy-consuming industries will not be subject to approval, approval, and filing before the local government will eliminate outdated production capacity with the same amount of energy. The financial institutions shall not issue loans, land management, Urban planning, environmental protection and other departments shall not handle the relevant procedures. Establish an accountability system for project approval, and strictly investigate and deal with illegal construction projects according to regulations.
