China News Service, Beijing, January 13 (Reporter Wang Enbo) The reporter learned from the China Development Bank on the 13th that the bank recently obtained the first batch of carbon emission reduction support tools issued by the People's Bank of China 10.267 billion yuan (RMB, the same below).

The special support tool adopts the direct mechanism of “first loan and then borrowing”. China Development Bank will make its own decision to issue preferential interest rate loans to enterprises in the field of significant carbon emission reduction, and then the People's Bank of China will provide 60% of the loan principal to eligible loans. Low-cost financial support.

  The first batch of funds obtained by the China Development Bank corresponds to the Zhanjiang Xuwen offshore wind farm project, the Shandong Wendeng pumped storage power station project, and the Qinghai Hainan Talatan photovoltaic power station that have been actually released from July to November 2021. The main medium and long-term project loans in the field of carbon emission reduction, with a total loan amount of 17.111 billion yuan, can drive an annual carbon emission reduction of 3.43 million tons.

  Among them, the Zhanjiang Xuwen 600MW offshore wind farm project is the largest offshore wind power project in operation in Asia, setting a new record for the single installed capacity of domestic offshore wind power projects; The project plays an important role in stabilizing the frequency of the system, alleviating accidents, and improving the dynamic benefits of the power system; the 1000MW photovoltaic power station project in the first tender section of Talatan, Hainan is a supply project for the power supply end of the Qinghai-Henan UHV DC transmission project, which is helpful for serving "West-to-East Power Transmission" injects green development momentum into the Central Plains.

  According to reports, in order to cooperate with the work related to carbon emission reduction support tools, the China Development Bank strengthened top-level design, issued the Action Plan for Implementing Green and Low-Carbon Finance Strategy to Support Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality, and clearly proposed to make good use of carbon emission reduction support tools. , incorporate carbon emission factors into the whole credit process, establish a credit carbon accounting information system, gradually update and establish an industry accounting model, etc., and explore to provide an institutional basis and information guarantee for the Bank's promotion of carbon emission reduction loans.

At the same time, strengthen reporting and communication with the People's Bank of China and other ministries and commissions, and carry out relevant preparations in advance.

  In order to do a good job in applying for this special support tool, China Development Bank, on the basis of extensive research in the early stage, hired a third-party professional organization to conduct verification of the carbon emission reduction loan ledgers to be submitted. China Regional Power Grid Baseline Emission Factor”, correcting the calculation results of carbon emission reduction effects of some projects, etc., and issuing a formal evaluation and consultation report to ensure that the development bank’s carbon emission reduction loans are accurate and reliable in measurement to the greatest extent.

  The relevant person in charge of the third industry department of China Development Bank said that the bank will strictly control and accurately control, and on the basis of continuously improving the management level of carbon emission reduction loans, continue to increase the support for green and low-carbon fields, and accurately direct direct access to significant carbon emission reductions. The project will make a positive contribution to the achievement of carbon neutrality and carbon peaking.
