"Crisis" and "Machine" of Wenzhou Shoe Power Limited

Faced with the pressure to complete the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” energy-saving and emission reduction targets, in the last two months, a mandatory “emission reduction” storm is raging in many places, and some provinces and regions have adopted measures to limit production or even shut down production. As a gathering place of private enterprises, Wenzhou has faced an unprecedented bottleneck in its development – ​​energy saving and emission reduction. It can be seen that the problem of power shortage has become a “stumbling block” for the development of shoe-making enterprises, and a sharp sword that hangs over the head of the enterprise because when they were in the peak season, they did not have the support of electric power, causing some companies to be forced to stop production.

Affected by the financial crisis environment, many factors such as rising prices of raw materials, rising labor costs, difficulties in recruiting workers, energy issues, and adjustments to export tax rebates are all contributing to the company’s profits, and have brought tremendous survival to Wenzhou shoe companies. pressure. Nowadays, in order to stimulate the rapid economic recovery, some local governments have adopted corresponding industrial incentive policies and measures. High-energy-consuming and high-pollution enterprises have also risen. Energy intensity and sulfur dioxide emissions have slowed down, and have even declined. In some places, electricity consumption has increased rapidly, which has brought great pressure on local energy conservation and emission reduction as well as environmental protection.

The footwear industry is a labor-intensive industry. As a shoe-intensive area, Wenzhou is undoubtedly one of the most power-hungry cities in the country. In July, the continuous hot and sunny weather caused the actual electricity demand of Wenzhou Power Grid to greatly exceed the pressure, and the daily power load of air-conditioners and other electrical appliances soared rapidly. In August, the heat in Wenzhou became extremely unbearable. However, for most SMEs, the “during the harsh winter period” still continues. Many traditional industries in Wenzhou are energy-intensive, and there is a mechanism to reduce power consumption and power consumption. Next, companies must be transformed and upgraded.

Reducing power consumption through technological transformation is a major “magic weapon” for Wenzhou shoe companies. At a higher level, the ultimate way out for enterprises is to change the mode of production and shift from low-end high-pollution, high-energy-consuming production methods to high-end manufacturing. Extensive growth methods with high energy consumption and high pollution have already failed to adapt to the current economic situation. Enterprises should not only be good at using various technical means to save energy and reduce consumption, but also should adjust their industrial structure, attach importance to energy conservation and emissions reduction, and rely on government regulation alone. Rely on appropriate systems to incentivize, for example, through environmental protection, land, finance, fiscal and taxation, and other multi-faceted policy measures to guide enterprises to save energy and reduce emissions; establish systems such as emissions trading, so that active energy-saving emission reduction people have benefits and rewards.

In the long-term, temporary power-restricted production-reduction measures may bring fluctuations in the related industry market, causing some companies to suddenly release production capacity next year, causing a retaliatory rebound in energy consumption and emissions, and intensifying the complexity of future energy-saving and emission reduction work. Sex. In fact, in the past two years, power shortages, pollution, and other ills have forced companies to constantly strive for production through technological innovation. Many companies choose to upgrade.
