Global Coatings Network News: On April 25, at the "2021 Yangtze River Economic Belt Green Development Summit Forum" held in Yichang, Hubei Province, Chen Huixia, member of the Standing Committee of the Yichang Municipal Committee and executive vice mayor, stated that the city correctly handled the relationship between eliminating old driving forces and cultivating new driving forces, dared to tackle "pillar industries and industries that provide food and clothing," implemented differentiated policies, and pressed ahead with the "closure, modification, relocation, and transfer" of the chemical industry along the Yangtze River. While adhering to ecological protection, the city develops suitable industries and promotes the scientific, orderly, and high-quality development of the chemical industry.
According to Chen Huixia, Yichang City took the lead in launching the relocation and rectification of chemical enterprises and industrial transformation and upgrading along the Yangtze River, moving out of the Yangtze River red line, safeguarding the safety bottom line, and upgrading the quality high line, promoting the development of the chemical industry towards high-end, refined, green, intelligent, safe, and international levels. In recent years, the city has implemented "closure, modification, relocation, and transfer" for 134 chemical enterprises on a case-by-case basis. Currently, 119 enterprises have completed "closure, modification, relocation, and transfer," and 15 are currently relocating to industrial parks. Two specialized chemical industrial parks have been planned and constructed to high standards in Yidu and Zhijiang, and they have been selected as national green industrial parks. The city has introduced supporting policies for the relocation of chemical enterprises to industrial parks, allocating 500 million yuan in special funds over three years to support the relocation of chemical enterprises that meet environmental protection and safety standards to industrial parks. The city will not simply relocate space, ensuring that enterprises achieve transformation and upgrading during relocation. After three years of hard work, the chemical industry has undergone a transformation, successfully achieving a "V-shaped" reversal and "rebirth." The proportion of fine chemicals in the chemical industry in the city has increased from 18.6% before the rectification to over 36%.
"We have introduced the 'Three-Year Action Plan for Deepening Industrial Technological Transformation and Promoting High-Quality Development of the Industrial Economy,' establishing a 100 million yuan special fund and a 3 billion yuan equity fund to support enterprises in increasing investment in technological transformation, enhancing endogenous momentum, allowing traditional industries to 'rejuvenate,' transitioning from low-end to high-end, and promoting green and transformative development." Chen Huixia said that currently, the city has implemented nearly 2,500 industrial technological transformation projects, and the technological transformation rate of large-scale enterprises has expanded from 7.1% three years ago to 81.3%, and the proportion of technological transformation investment in industrial investment has increased from 21.8% to 61.5%.
