"We used natural gas for heating this winter. The government not only paid for the installation of equipment, but also provided gas subsidies for the first three years. It is much more convenient for cooking and bathing in winter." November 13, Dezhou City, Shandong Province Zhang Shengjun, a villager in Sanshilipu West Street Village, Huangheya Town, Decheng District, pointed to the gas fireplace in his kitchen and said.
Dezhou is a Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei air pollution transmission channel city. This year, we will continue to adhere to the principle of "power is suitable for electricity, gas is suitable for gas, coal is suitable for coal, and heat is suitable for heat." "Post-breaking" principle, vigorously promote the replacement of loose coal for clean heating.
Decheng District has subsidized 1,000 yuan of gas for each heating season for households who implemented the “gas instead of coal” transformation this year for 3 consecutive years, centrally purchased wall-hung boilers and installed them for free, and gave a gas stove as a gift. The entire cost of the renovation is borne by the local finance.
Up to now, Decheng District has completed the transformation of 23,000 households.
According to the State Grid Shandong Electric Power Company, this year, 358,400 "coal-to-electricity" households in Shandong have been completed. So far, 980,000 households have used "coal-to-electricity" clean heating.
In the heating season this year, Shandong is expected to save 270,000 tons of standard coal, reduce 680,000 tons of carbon dioxide, 20,000 tons of sulfur dioxide, and 10,000 tons of nitrogen oxides.
Replacing loose coal by changing gas and electricity is one of the important measures for air pollution control in northern my country.
In recent years, my country has concentrated its efforts to promote the treatment of scattered coal in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas, the Fenwei Plain and other regions, and has accumulated more than 25 million households with scattered coal.
Pilot cities for clean heating in the northern region have achieved full coverage of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas and the Fenwei Plain.
Liu Bingjiang, director of the Department of Atmospheric Environment of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, introduced that in the process of promoting clean heating, some provinces are mainly converting coal to gas, some provinces are converting coal to electricity, and there are methods such as centralized utilization of biomass. Cities and surrounding areas More is to rely on thermal power plant pipeline network extension to carry out loose coal management.
After evaluation, the conversion of coal to gas and coal to electricity has contributed more than one-third of the reduction of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the atmosphere, and the environmental benefits are obvious.
Wang Guizhen of Gengliyang Community, Huangheya Town, Decheng District, has long been looking forward to the transformation of “gas instead of coal”.
"There are elderly people and children in the house. In winter, the effect of burning soil and heating is not good, and it is not safe. The house is often smoky. Now I use a gas wall-hung boiler and a gas stove, which is convenient and clean."
"It turns out that rural residents burn coal in winter, and indoor PM2.5 is more than 200 micrograms per cubic meter every day." Liu Bingjiang said, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment survey found that after the use of clean energy, farmers' living habits have undergone great changes.
The promotion of clean heating in the northern rural areas has played an important role in replacing scattered coal and improving the atmospheric environment. At the same time, it has also increased the construction of rural infrastructure and improved the quality of life of farmers.
The reporter learned from the National Energy Administration that my country will add about 1.5 billion square meters of clean heating area this year.
According to the deployment of winning the blue sky defense war, before this year's heating season, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas, and the Fenwei Plain will basically complete plain area life and replace scattered coal for heating in winter, and basically build areas without scattered coal.
The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and surrounding areas and the Fenwei Plain have replaced 7.09 million households with scattered coal.
Among them, 3.37 million households in Hebei Province, 960,000 households in Shanxi Province, 1.63 million households in Shandong Province, 400,000 households in Henan Province, and 730,000 households in Shaanxi Province.
In the past few years, "air shortages" occurred in winter in some places, which had a certain impact on the people's warmth through the winter.
The recently released "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas, Fenwei Plain, Autumn and Winter Air Pollution Comprehensive Control Action Plan for 2020-2021" made special arrangements for this, requiring the acceleration of the construction of natural gas production, supply, storage and marketing systems, the interconnection of natural gas infrastructure, and Key projects such as gas storage facilities will be completed and put into production as planned.
Optimize the direction of natural gas use, and focus on newly added natural gas during the heating period to the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and surrounding areas, and the Fenwei Plain, giving priority to ensuring clean heating and warm winter.
Improve the list of peak shaving users, and consolidate the emergency plan for "suppressing non-residents".
The reporter learned that in order to protect the people's livelihood gas use this year, companies such as PetroChina, Sinopec, and CNOOC have also made arrangements in advance to improve their ability to ensure supply.
During the winter supply period, China National Petroleum Corporation integrated domestic and foreign resources of 98.67 billion cubic meters, an increase of 10.01 billion cubic meters year-on-year to ensure the supply of natural gas resources.
Sinopec has also increased resource coordination. In terms of domestic resources, it has accelerated the promotion of increasing reserves and production of major gas fields such as Puguang, Yuanba, Fuling, Weirong and Daniudi; in terms of imported resources, it actively purchases spot resources. Tianjin and Qingdao LNG The receiving station will be fully loaded during the heating season.
China National Offshore Oil & Gas Group expects to provide 2.49 billion cubic meters of natural gas to North China through the Tianjin LNG receiving station to ensure the safety and stability of peak heating.
"Using natural gas for heating, it is clean and warm." Zhang Shengjun said, I believe there will be more blue skies and less smog in winter after coal is changed to gas.
