人大常委会丨从执法检查报告看节约能源法实施成效

Core Viewpoint - The implementation of the Energy Conservation Law in China has shown significant results, with a strong emphasis on improving energy efficiency across various sectors, supported by government initiatives and technological advancements [1][2]. Group 1: Energy Conservation Achievements - From 2007 to 2024, China's energy consumption per unit of GDP has decreased by approximately 43%, resulting in a cumulative energy saving of about 2.3 billion tons of standard coal [1]. - Since the 18th National Congress, the energy consumption per unit of GDP has dropped by 27.2%, making China one of the fastest countries in the world to reduce energy intensity, with an average energy consumption growth rate of 3.3% supporting an average economic growth rate of 6.1% [1]. Group 2: Sector-Specific Energy Efficiency Initiatives - In the industrial sector, 206 "leading" enterprises in energy efficiency have been identified, and 246 national green data centers have been established, promoting energy-saving renovations [2]. - The construction sector is expanding, with over 97% of new urban buildings in 2024 expected to be green buildings [2]. - In transportation, the total freight volume for railways and water transport is projected to increase by 17.3% and 31.3%, respectively, by 2024, with new energy vehicles expected to account for 40.9% of total new car sales [2]. Group 3: Challenges and Recommendations - Despite achievements, overall energy utilization efficiency in China remains insufficient, with issues in awareness, management, technology promotion, and incentive measures [3]. - Recommendations include strengthening the energy conservation strategy, improving management mechanisms, and enhancing the legal framework to support energy-saving initiatives [3].
