49232-001: Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Air Quality Improvement Program
Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei Air Quality Improvement–Hebei Policy Reforms Program (RRP PRC 49232) SECTOR ASSESSMENT: ENVIRONMENT (AIR POLLUTION) Sector Road Map A. Sector Performance, Problems, and Opportunities 1. Air pollution problems in the PRC. Decades of unsustainable economic growth in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) have resulted in severe degradation of the air, water and soil quality throughout the country. In 2014, 74 of PRC’s prefecture-level and higher level cities recorded annual concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exceeding the national standard of 35 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3) by 83%, with 7 of the 10 most polluted cities in the PRC located in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region.1 High levels of air pollution are among the first environmental problems that the PRC’s leadership has addressed with an unprecedented scale of reforms and actions which include the first “Action Plan of Pollution Prevention and Control” (hereinafter CAAP) outlining targets to be achieved in 2013–2015 in key regions, a new vision for the PRC’s urbanization which emphasizes improved ecological environment in cities, and a new environmental protection law unleashing long-needed reforms in the government performance assessment system. 2. Air quality and emissions in Hebei Province. Hebei province (Hebei) surrounds Beijing and Tianjin Municipalities, bordering Bohai bay to the east. Despite its advantageous geographical position, Hebei’s resources driven and heavy industry based economy has made the province lag behind other coastal provinces like Jiansgu and Zhejiang in terms of gross domestic product (GDP) and overall economic performance. In 2014, Hebei’s GDP totaled CNY2.94 trillion with a per capita GDP of CNY39,846. -

In 2016, 20th century had resulted in large increases in the country’s the total investment in fixed assets (excluding that by rural production of and demand for mineral commodities. These households; see reference at the end of the paragraph for a changes were dominating factors in the development of the detailed definition) was $8.78 trillion, of which $2.72 trillion global mineral industry during the past two decades. In more was invested in the manufacturing sector and $149 billion was recent years, owing to the country’s economic slowdown invested in the mining sector (National Bureau of Statistics of and to stricter environmental regulations in place by the China, 2017b, sec. 3–1, 3–3, 3–6, 4–5, 10–6). Government since late 2012, the mineral industry in China had In 2016, the foreign direct investment (FDI) actually used faced some challenges, such as underutilization of production in China was $126 billion, which was the same as in 2015. capacity, slow demand growth, and low profitability. To In 2016, about 0.08% of the FDI was directed to the mining address these challenges, the Government had implemented sector compared with 0.2% in 2015, and 27% was directed to policies of capacity control (to restrict the addition of new the manufacturing sector compared with 31% in 2015. -

Facing with the complicated operating environment, the Group accelerated in exploring new markets, seized new resources and made substantial results in exploring gas and wind power markets in Hebei Province and other provinces. Breakthroughs were made in gas business in other provinces, the approved capacity of wind power projects hit historic high, and the business layout tended to be more reasonable, thus laying a solid foundation for a new round of performance growth for the Group.
