Group 1: Implementation of Energy Consumption Standards - The mandatory national standards for energy consumption limits, including "Energy Consumption Limits for Refining and Chemical Industry Products" (GB 30251—2024), officially took effect on May 1, 2024, covering key industries such as chemicals, coal, mining, and paper [1][2] - The effective implementation of these standards is expected to yield an annual energy-saving benefit of 24.52 million tons of standard coal [2][12] - The standards aim to eliminate outdated production capacity and guide enterprises to enhance energy efficiency through energy-saving renovations and process optimization [2][6] Group 2: Impact on Steel Industry - The implementation of energy consumption limits is seen as beneficial for the steel industry, which is currently facing oversupply and weak demand [2][3] - The standards will force the elimination of inefficient production capacities, such as blast furnaces with a capacity of 400 cubic meters or less, and steelmaking converters of 30 tons or less [2][3] - New and expanded steel projects must meet energy efficiency standards, raising industry entry barriers and promoting a shift towards high-end and green development [2][3] Group 3: Effects on Construction Materials - Recent government policies for the flat glass industry focus on capacity regulation, green transformation, and technological upgrades [4] - The implementation of energy consumption limits is expected to positively impact the glass and cement industries, leading to high-quality supply that drives demand [4][5] Group 4: Energy and Chemical Industry Integration - The energy consumption limits are a necessary response to past capacity expansions and the "dual carbon" goals, addressing structural contradictions in the refining industry [6][8] - The new standards will compel companies to accelerate technological upgrades and increase investments in energy-saving technologies, with expected investments exceeding 100 billion yuan [8] - The standards will also lead to the elimination of outdated capacities, significantly increasing industry concentration [8][9] Group 5: Nonferrous Metals Industry Transformation - The implementation of energy consumption limits is a significant change for the nonferrous metals industry, promoting green transformation and energy efficiency improvements [10] - The standards will accelerate the elimination of outdated capacities, particularly in high-energy-consuming small smelting plants [10][11] - The copper market is expected to face downward pressure due to tightening supply and increased environmental regulations [10][11] Group 6: Coal Industry Energy Efficiency - The energy consumption limits are projected to save 24.52 million tons of standard coal annually, enhancing energy efficiency across various industries [12] - The implementation of these standards will not immediately reduce coal demand but will impose constraints on energy usage, promoting better energy management [12]

《炼化行业单位产品能源消耗限额》（GB 30251—2024）等13项能耗限额强制性国家标准自今年5月1 日起正式实施，这批标准涵盖化工、煤炭、采矿、造纸等多个国民经济重要产业。市场人士认为，投资 者应密切关注政策落地的节奏和终端需求的变化，在行业变革中捕捉结构性投资机会。 钢铁行业：推动产业结构优化增强企业竞争力 今年5月1日起，《炼化行业单位产品能源消耗限额》（GB 30251—2024）等13项能耗限额强制性国家 标准（以下简称能耗限额强制性国标）正式实施。据测算，这批标准的有效实施，将带来每年2452万吨 标准煤的节能效益。 据记者了解，这批标准涵盖化工、煤炭、采矿、造纸等多个国民经济重要产业，规定了相关产品能耗限 额等级、技术要求、统计范围和计算方法，适用于生产企业能耗限额的计算，以及对新建、改扩建项目 的能耗管控，将有效推动淘汰落后产能，引导企业通过节能改造、优化工艺路线、开展能效对标等工作 提升能效水平。 中银期货研究所黑色首席研究员吕肖华认为，能耗限额强制性国标的实施，将对钢铁行业产生利好。目 前，钢铁行业供应过剩、需求疲弱，供给侧结构性改革是行业健康发展的重要手段。能耗限额强制性国 标的实施 ...
