Energy-saving emission reduction and response to climate change have become an important and urgent task for China’s current economic and social development. The state attaches great importance to this and all industries are taking relevant actions and actively participating in this. In the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan”, China clearly stated that by 2010 energy-saving emission reduction targets to be achieved, General Secretary Hu Jintao also put forward the idea of ​​building an ecological civilization at the party’s 17th National Congress. This will undoubtedly protect the ecological environment. The construction issue mentioned a new height.

How do foreign companies look at China's energy conservation and emissions reductions, and what are their targeted measures?

Recently, Siemens held a press conference in 2007 in Beijing. Hao Ruiqiang, president and CEO of Siemens China, officially announced that Siemens will invest 5 billion yuan in China’s mid-term investment in the field of technological innovation related to energy conservation and environmental protection, and put The most advanced energy-saving and environmental protection technologies are brought to China, and they strive to become leaders in this field in China, helping China achieve harmonious development of the economy and the environment.

As one of the earliest foreign companies in China and one of the most influential foreign companies in China, Siemens is very eye-catching. Recently, around how Siemens cooperated with China in energy-saving and emission reduction in related fields, China Economic Weekly interviewed Peter Herweck, executive vice president of Siemens China Ltd. and president of Automation and Drives Group, whose Chinese name is He Weike. ).

Siemens Energy Saving Concept

“Energy conservation is now a topic that the world is concerned about. Whether in China or in the world, everyone has reached a consensus on energy conservation and consumption reduction. The concept of energy saving and environmental protection has been deeply rooted in people’s hearts.” He Weike told China Economic Weekly, China In the past two years, the government has placed the issue of energy conservation and consumption reduction at the top of the national policy. This has enabled many companies like Siemens to work together with the Chinese government to find a solution for each company and make each one The energy consumption of the company is minimized.

It is reported that Siemens' business in China is mainly concentrated in the three major business areas of energy, industry and medical. Taking Siemens Automation and Drives (A&D) as an example, it is the leading supplier of global industrial automation. Services are widely used in the steel, machinery, metals, food, beverage, packaging, automotive, power and chemical industries, and these industries are closely related to energy conservation and environmental protection. Therefore, Siemens has invested more than 2 billion euros in research and development of environmental protection solutions. According to the data released by the official website of Siemens, among the 62,000 effective patents of Siemens, there are 30,000 environmental protection solutions. These solutions have the potential to reduce emissions by 10 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year.

He Weike told reporters that he believes that energy conservation should be on two levels. On the one hand, it means that the products provided must be energy-efficient. On the other hand, it refers to how the products help customers save energy in applications. “We always consider these two aspects and combine the products and solutions we can provide with the needs of our customers to achieve better energy efficiency.”

He said: “The big energy consumers in the entire society are actually in the industrial field. The main energy source is consumed by various motors. In the current traditional industry, many motors are called constant rotation speeds, especially Fans, pumps and the like, the constant speed makes the motor consume a lot more energy than it actually needs. Therefore, the motor has greater potential for energy saving."

From the current sales figures announced by Siemens Automation and Drives Group, their global orders amounted to 14.1 billion euros in the previous fiscal year, and China’s business has ranked third in its global business: the highest is Germany, and the second is Germany. It is the United States. He Weike said: "China is one of our important strategic markets in the world. We will be committed to developing and producing a full range of advanced products for Chinese and global customers in China, and will carry out the concept of energy saving and environmental protection to the end. To promote the development of China's automation industry, we have the privilege of establishing a mutually beneficial and cooperative relationship with powerful local manufacturers. We firmly believe that through the cooperation of both parties, our business will be in a leading position in the Chinese circuit breaker market.”

"It is an honour to contribute to China's environmental protection."

According to a report issued by Siemens, in fiscal year 2007, Siemens China's sales and new orders increased at a rapid rate of 21%, reaching 53.3 billion yuan and 607 yuan, respectively, under the two-wheel drive of new investment and expansion of existing businesses. 100 million yuan. Among them, organic growth from internal business operations reached 17%.

Siemens formulated the "2010 Acceleration" strategic target and plans for new orders in 2010 to reach 100 billion yuan, with a focus on energy conservation and environmental protection. According to He Weike, the latest scientific and technological achievements of Siemens' cooperation with China include: Huaneng Yuhuan coal-fired power plant with Siemens supercritical technology has a power generation efficiency of up to 45%, and it also has installed capacity, environmental protection, and energy conservation. Many aspects have also reached the world-class level; Siemens has received an order amounting to approximately 300 million euros, and together with its Chinese partners has established a UHV direct current transmission (HVDC) system from Yunnan Province to Guangdong Province with a transmission capacity of With 5 million kilowatts and a transmission voltage of 800 kilovolts, it will become the longest-distance high-voltage direct current line with the largest transmission capacity in the world; Siemens has supplied 500 freight-powered six-axle locomotives to Chinese partners with a contract value of 334 million euros. These six-axle locomotives are the world's most powerful mass-produced freight locomotives. Their designed output power rating is 9.6MW, which is 50% larger than the most powerful freight locomotive currently operating in Central Europe.

"Siemens' innovative products and technologies can contribute to China's energy conservation and environmental protection. We are deeply honored and proud of this." said He Weike.

In addition, Siemens also launched the world's first fully integrated security protection product "SINAMICS G120" this year to visit the four major cities of Shanghai, Shenyang, Guangzhou and Chengdu in the form of a tour conference. "SINAMICS G120" has a very high technical advantage and can perfectly meet the needs of high-performance applications in the low voltage range. For the first time, it directly integrates two types of bus communication into the inverter, enabling mature IT technology to be applied in the industrial field. At the same time, the new power module allows the SINAMICS G120 to have a unique regeneration energy feedback function. He Weike believes that this new product with energy-saving and emission-reduction features will help Siemens open up new areas in China's standard transmission market.

Innovative energy-saving cooperation model

Recently, Siemens and Shanghai, Shandong Province, Zhejiang Province, Jiangsu Province and Shenzhen, Guangdong Province respectively signed a comprehensive cooperation agreement on energy-saving and emission reduction, and launched a series of cooperation with many local enterprises in China. For example, the "Green Commercial Building" exhibited by Siemens in Shanghai is to apply top-level energy-saving design to modern buildings, such as the use of advanced double-glazing to reduce winter energy consumption and reduce the cooling capacity in the summer; use of water-saving systems and today The most advanced electrical equipment, the introduction of ice storage system to minimize night energy consumption, making supporting facilities including public infrastructure become more "green." In addition, Siemens will also promote energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies in many areas such as the construction of intelligent communities, traffic organizations, and medical device configurations to improve the lives of the citizens.

With such a series of activities in China, can Siemens implement these plans thoroughly?

In response to a reporter's question, He Weike stated frankly that Siemens is eager to get more supportive policies and can better cooperate with local companies. He said: "China's environmentally friendly and sustainable development policy is very important. For this reason, we have now signed framework agreements for energy saving and emission reduction with four major provinces, such as Jiangsu and Shandong. The government's energy saving targets actually fall on For local companies, Siemens generally helps them develop energy-saving solutions, such as which systems can be improved to save energy, which systems have been used to maximize the advantages of energy-saving, and we have also designed a new cooperation model - energy-saving performance guarantee contract. (ESPC) to help Chinese partners to minimize risks while achieving energy savings. Of course, the approval process and the verification process will be very complicated, but I am still very optimistic about the completion of the transaction and hope to work faster. This is mutually beneficial to both sides of the cooperation."
