According to the report, the 12th Five-Year Plan for Energy Saving and Environmental Protection will be issued in September

According to the China Securities Journal, authoritative sources revealed that the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan for Energy-saving and Environmental Protection Industry Development" led by the Development and Reform Commission of the National Development and Reform Commission has gone through three rounds of soliciting opinions and is about to be reported to the State Council. It is expected to be the fastest in September. Introduced. It is reported that in this development plan, the contents of tax-reduction, franchise, and industrial concentration of energy-saving and environmental-protection companies are highlighted.

According to sources, the plan will be based on energy conservation, environmental protection, and comprehensive utilization of resources. It will provide policy support to related industries. The areas involved will include energy-efficient energy-saving technologies and equipment, energy-efficient products, energy-saving service industries, and advanced environmental protection technologies and equipment. , environmental protection products and environmental protection services in six major areas.

In terms of taxation policy, the plan may be based on the “three exemptions, three and five and a half” tax incentives for energy-saving and environmental protection companies, and then collecting energy-saving and environmental-friendly corporate income tax at a rate of 15% according to the standards of high-tech companies that the country needs to support.

Regulation 27 of the Implementation Regulations of the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China promulgated on January 1, 2008 stipulates that enterprises engage in public sewage treatment, public waste treatment, comprehensive development and utilization of biogas, technological transformation of energy conservation and emission reduction, and seawater desalination. The income from the project will be granted with the “three exemptions, three and five and a half” discount from the tax year in which the project’s first production and operation income was obtained. However, after the “three exemptions, three reductions and one half” preferential period, the 25% regular corporate income tax rate imposes a relatively large burden on enterprises for energy-saving and environmental protection companies with high one-time investment and long return period. For example, according to high-tech enterprises, the income tax of energy-saving and environmental protection enterprises can be collected at a tax rate of 15% in the future, which will greatly reduce the tax burden on energy-saving and environmental-protection companies, thereby further improving the company's development capabilities. In addition, the land use tax and real estate tax for energy-saving and environmental protection companies may be reduced accordingly. Related content such as franchise rights, fee pledge loans, energy conservation and environmental protection industry funds, etc. may also be reflected in the plan.

In the absence of sound sewage and garbage disposal systems in China, the problem of shortage of funds for energy conservation and environmental protection companies is outstanding. By encouraging the development of fee pledge loans and the development of various energy conservation and environmental protection industry funds, these problems can be effectively solved.

In terms of corporate support, the plan may refer to cultivating a batch of RMB 5 billion to RMB 100 million environmental protection leading enterprises. As of 2009, the world's largest environmental protection company Veolia Group's operating income was 32 billion euros (about 280 billion yuan), the second largest environmental company Suez Group's operating income was 12.3 billion euros (about 100.8 billion yuan). At present, most of China's large-scale environmental protection companies have annual operating revenues of 2 billion to 3 billion yuan.

Compared with the development of foreign industries, China's environmental protection industry has the problem of small companies and low industrial concentration. The key to making the environmental protection industry bigger and stronger is to expand and strengthen the company and gradually increase the degree of industrial concentration. To this end, the plan may propose directional goals.

Recently, the State Council has reviewed and approved in principle the comprehensive work plan for energy conservation and emission reduction during the 12th Five-Year Plan period. Industry insiders expect that the 7th Environmental Protection Conference will be held in September. The “12th Five-Year Plan for Energy-saving and Environmental Protection Industry Development” and “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” and related emission standards may be held at the meeting. Before and after the introduction.
