Another piece of news about China. As thermal power companies have long been major sources causing air pollution in China, the government has decided to provide power price subsidies for environmentally-friendly thermal power stations.
來看另一則與中國有關的新聞。火力發電企業長期以來一直是中國空氣污染的主要來源,因此政府決定向環保火力發電站提供電價補貼。
The Yiyang Power Plant in central China's Hunan Province is constructing facilities of desulfurization, denitrification, and dust-extraction.
中國中部湖南省的益陽電廠正在建設脫硫、脫氮及除塵的設施。
Once completed, the facilities will work to purify exhaust flue gases and reduce over 90 percent of pollutants.
設施建設完成后將凈化煙道排放氣體,并減少90%多的污染物。
Under the government's new power pricing policies, the Yiyang Power Plant will receive 0.023 yuan per kilowatt hour in government subsidies.
依據政府新發布的電價補貼政策,益陽電廠可獲得0.023分/千瓦時的政府補貼。
Meanwhile, the Chinese government has also raised electricity prices for industries plagued by high energy consumption and over-capacity, such as steel and cement.
同時,中國政府還將提高鋼鐵和水泥等高能耗、產能過剩產業的電價。
A cement plant in the city of Shaoguan in south China's Guangdong Province has stalled operation due to a substantial increase in electricity price.
由于電價大幅度上漲,中國南部廣東省韶關市一家水泥廠已經停止運作。
Apart from the cement sector, the National Development and Reform Commission has planned to implement the differential power pricing measures in industries of flat glass, steel, electrolytic aluminum and others to curb over-capacity. The measures have been carried out in Guangdong in advance. The Guangdong government has also introduced preferential measures to underdeveloped areas to stimulate growth.
除了水泥行業,國家發改委計劃在平板玻璃、鋼鐵、電解鋁及其他行業實施差別電價政策,以遏制產能過剩。這些措施已經在廣東試行。同時廣東省政府還在欠發達地區推出了優惠措施,以刺激增長。
Xie Zhenhua, vice chairman of NDRC, says China is likely to achieve this year's goal of energy consumption reduction. He says smoggy weather in many parts of the country is mainly caused by China's extensive development pattern and the unreasonable industrial and energy structures.
國家發改委副主任謝振華表示,中國有望于今年達成節能減耗的目標。他表示,造成我國大部分地區出現霧霾天的主要原因是我國粗放的發展方式以及不合理的產業和能源結構。
And the country will increase its consumption of renewable energies to further reduce emissions.
我國將增加可再生能源的消費,以進一步減少排放。
