Abstract
It is necessary for China to refocus its energy conservation effort from the industrial sector (field) to all three sectors simultaneously, i.e. industry, construction and transport. In addition, it should also make significant effort for conserving energy on general technical equipment that are used in large quantities and for a variety of applications. Therefore, there is a need to integrate industrial, construction and transport sectors, i.e. the integration between key technologies and widely used technologies, between hard and soft management, between energy-saving technologies and comprehensive resource utilization technologies. According to estimates, if China’s energy consuming sectors adopted appropriate energy-saving technologies, total energy-savings (using 2010 as the baseline) would be 200 million, 450 million, 650 million and 800 million tons of standard coal in 2015, 2020, 2025 and 2030, respectively.
Highlights
“Energy Reduction Revolution” is mainly realized via the following two approaches: by reducing the consumption of energy by services and improving energy utilization efficiency
Key energy conservation sectors must adhere to the idea of “doing two jobs at once”; that is, paying attention to areas consuming high amounts of energy, and to general technical equipment that are commonly used in large quantities
All energy conservation work revolved around the industrial sector as it had the highest energy consumption
Summary
“Energy Reduction Revolution” is mainly realized via the following two approaches: by reducing the consumption of energy by services and improving energy utilization efficiency (i.e. using less energy for a similar output). The latter is generally called technical energy conservation, i.e. continuously improving energy utilization efficiency of existing and new energy facilities (or equipment), and reducing the energy consumption per unit out-. (2014) Analysis of Technical Energy Conservation Potential of China’s Energy Consumption Sectors. Technical energy conservation is further divided into progressive and fundamental types. In addition to gradual increase of energy efficiency through incremental innovation of the main technologies in service, additional exploration of fundamental technological innovations should be undertaken to achieve breakthroughs in energy efficiency
