The new national standard for energy consumption quotas in four industries solicits opinions for newly-built and renovated (expanded) enterprises to meet Level 2 requirements

Recently, the National Energy Fundamentals and Management Standardization Technical Committee issued the "Energy Consumption Limits of Key Products in the Refining and Chemical Industry", "The Energy Consumption Limits of the Alcohol Ethers Industry", and "The Energy Consumption Limits of Calcium Carbide and Its Downstream Industries".

The new national standard that is still soliciting opinions is clear, and the key products in the refining and chemical industry include oil refining, ethylene, polypropylene, styrene, purified terephthalic acid, and paraxylene

Compared with the current national standard, the new national standard also clearly states that the energy consumption quotas for the above-mentioned four industries will be divided into three levels of management, with level 1 having the lowest energy consumption

Taking oil refining products as an example, in the current national standard, the advanced value of energy consumption per unit of product is 7, the access value is 8, and the limit value is 11.

In order to promote enterprises in the industry to accelerate the realization of energy conservation and consumption reduction, Zhou Junhua suggested that enterprises should introduce and use clean and advanced production technologies, and at the same time establish a global awareness of energy consumption management, establish and improve energy consumption management platforms, and reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency in an all-round way
