Bottlenecks of further advancing BMF industry

Energy is an important material basis for the development of human society and the blood of modern society. It is an overall and strategic issue related to the country's economic and social development. It is essential to the prosperity and development of the country, the improvement of people's lives, and the long-term stability of society. The rapid transformation and development of energy can lay a solid foundation for achieving the dual-carbon goal. Sustainable economic and social development will maintain a certain demand for energy, and energy security supply must be put in the first place. Energy green and low-carbon development has become an inevitable trend. It will be a profound energy revolution, involving a full range of innovations in systems, mechanisms, and legal systems. It must be based on reality, goal-oriented, and sustained efforts.

 

Relevant experts said: "As an important renewable energy, biomass energy is also an internationally recognized zero-carbon renewable energy. It has the characteristics of green, low-carbon, and clean. Biomass resources come from a wide range of sources, including agricultural waste, wood, and forests. Waste, urban organic waste, algae biomass, energy crops, etc. Biomass energy is widely used in industry, agriculture, transportation, life and other fields through power generation, heating, and gas supply. It is not available for other renewable energy sources. Alternative. If combined with BECCS (Bio Energy and Carbon Capture and Storage) technology, biomass energy will create negative carbon emissions."

 

There are four problems in the current development of biomass energy:

 

I. The understanding of biomass energy needs to be improved. Affected by the “dirty, chaotic, and poor” nature of traditional biomass energy (burning firewood on earthen stoves), the entire society, especially governments at all levels, have insufficient understanding of the importance of developing biomass energy, and even some places regard biomass fuel as the second best. For the highly polluting fuel of bulk coal, a policy of restricting development is adopted.

 

II. Departmental coordination still needs to be strengthened. Biomass energy management functions are relatively scattered. Development and reform, finance, energy, environment, agriculture, housing construction, forestry and grass, etc. all have related functions. The management functions are too scattered to form an effective joint force.

 

III. The subject of development responsibility must be further clarified. In industrial development, it is necessary to fully consider the environmental and people’s livelihood benefits of the utilization of biomass energy. It should be clear that the local finance should mainly bear the responsibility for environmental governance expenditures, and in accordance with the principle of matching financial resources and powers, the division of central and local revenues should be further rationalized and improved. In the transfer payment system reform, only by considering the financial needs of local environmental governance can the high-quality development of the biomass energy industry be promoted.

 

IV. Support policies need to be innovated. At present, industry development is supported solely by the renewable energy development fund. With the growing gap in subsidies from the renewable energy development fund, the shortage of funds has severely restricted the development of the organic waste energy utilization industry.

 

For accelerating the development of biomass energy, first of all, improve the understanding of the green and zero-carbon properties of biomass energy. Biomass energy is an important renewable energy, with green and low-carbon advantages, and is an important part of the global renewable energy system. Second, improve the top-level design for the development of the biomass energy industry. From the national level, we should clarify the positioning of biomass energy development in promoting rural revitalization and ensuring national energy security, establish and improve the working mechanism of the division of labor and responsibility of relevant departments, and coordinate the promotion of biomass energy development, build a policy support system, form a joint work force, and promote biomass Sustainable and healthy development. Third, establish a paid treatment mechanism for organic waste. In accordance with the model of “who produces, pays, who pollutes pays, and who disposes benefits”, gradually form a charging mechanism for the treatment of livestock and poultry manure, kitchen waste, and other organic waste, and establish safe and efficient raw material collection in a market-oriented manner system.
