Publishdate:2018-05-25 Views:13

Since the 12th Five Year Plan, unprecedented efforts have been made to control environmental pollution, and environmental protection has been elevated to the level of ecological civilization. Building a beautiful China has become an important component of realizing the Chinese Dream, and policies supporting the development of the environmental protection industry have been intensively introduced. Under the dual promotion of policies and markets, the environmental protection industry has entered a growth period of its lifecycle, and various fields of the environmental protection industry have made significant progress and leapfrog development. The performance and quality of environmental protection equipment products and services have significantly improved, resulting in a large number of environmentally friendly equipment and products with core competitiveness, some of which have reached the international advanced level. The environmental service industry is growing rapidly, and a product system with a complete range of environmental protection equipment has been formed. As a large environmental protection market, China has achieved localization in the supply of over 90% of its technical equipment and engineering services. Environmental protection equipment and products have been exported to over 70 countries and regions.

The layout of the environmental protection industry with axes is taking shape. Investment has increased exponentially, financing capacity has improved, and funding sources are diversified. In 2015, the total funding sources of environmental protection equipment manufacturing enterprises above designated size were 6.9 times that of 2010.

The R&D and manufacturing capabilities of major environmental protection technology equipment have significantly improved. The breakthrough of high-end equipment and rapid industrial development have been achieved, and the scientific research and innovation of major environmental protection technology equipment have solved a large number of bottleneck problems that have constrained industrial development for many years, while also driving a significant improvement in the industry's technological level, research and development, and manufacturing capabilities.

Overall improvement of technological innovation capability. Key environmental protection laboratories and engineering technology center level research and development institutions have been successively established, and the process of high-tech industrialization is constantly accelerating.
