, increase nearly 9 times than that for 2005. A significant break-
through was also made in the total installed capacity, increasing to 850.6 MW. The
production of new types of walling materials accounted for 61 % of overall production
and it was applied in 60 % of cases.
3.2.2 Major Sectors and Policies for Energy Conservation and
Emissions Reduction in the 12th Five-Year Plan Period
The 12th Five-Year Plan period is significant for China's economic and social
development as it is a key stage for achieving energy saving, emissions reduction
targets, and decreasing the carbon content of the energy supply. Meanwhile the
commercial and residential sectors maintain close ties with the service industry,
which should consume relatively more energy in the future. Therefore, development
of the commercial and residential sectors in this period and energy-saving measures
taken will have a long-term impact on energy supply. With “careful planning, reason-
able design and active guidance” during the 12th Five-Year Plan period, a series of
major projects will be launched in some important commercial and residential fields,
which are as follows:
A continued push for energy-conserving products that improve people's daily lives,
and a Green Lighting Project to improve the energy efficiency of terminals in the
commercial and residential sectors.
Promote energy conservation projects for heating and air conditioning systems,
Energy Consecration Programs at 10,000 Pubic Institutions, Model Projects for
Energy Conservation in Green Hotels and Commercial Buildings, demonstration
projects for constructing new energy-supplied villages so as to promote and
apply energy-saving technologies in different kinds of buildings, promote
energy efficiency and cut energy consumption.
Build statistics for energy consumption in commercial and residential buildings,
train more talents specializing in energy management and improve the energy
management of major energy-consuming equipment.
Appropriate policy guarantee measures are, of course, necessary for the successful
implementation of the energy-saving projects discussed above.
3.2.2.1 Further Improve Reforms Regarding the Heating System and
Strengthen Implementation of Energy-Saving Standards
Reforms in energy supply system will be strengthened in the 12th Five-Year Plan
period so that urban heating companies shoulder the responsibility of reforming
metering systems and expand areas where there are heat-supply charges. The price
rate for heating should be fixed as 30 % of the national level. In addition, State-
subsidized reforms of heating system metering will continue, and it is anticipated
that 1.8 million tons of coal will be saved if half of the concentrated heating-supply
areas are metered and charged appropriately.
Compulsory energy-saving standards for newly constructed buildings will be
strictly implemented and fully enforced. New buildings in small and medium-sized
