On September 11 the 2014 annual meeting of the new champions, Xie Zhenhua, Deputy Director of the nationaldevelopment and Reform Commission, Denmark climate, energy and construction Minister Rasmus HelvegPetersen, Royal DSM Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Xie Baiman (Feike Sijbesma) and otherguests had a positive discussion on global carbon emissions.

As the scene of enterprise representatives, Xie Baiman said that innovation is primarily focused on carbonemissions at the corporate level, "which means the company will have a lot of opportunities." He alsopointed out that enterprises should assume the corresponding social responsibilities, and activelycooperate with government departments, international organizations, promote the healthy operation of the carbon trading market.

But what is undeniable is currently run in this market is not yet mature, carbon price instability, hadincomplete supporting laws, regulatory and business innovation have resulted in difficulties for theGovernment.

The case of Royal DSM Group, said Xie Baiman, a Netherlands company, although its innovation and researchin carbon emissions is done in Europe, but due to the regulatory framework only to United States tolanding practice, "because the United States provides us with support in the public sector".

Xie Zhenhua have pointed out, EU carbon prices are volatile, the market price of a ton of carbon dioxide emissions have decreased from the previous peak of 30~40 euro/ton to 3 euros/ton.

"I think the EU carbon market downturn have reasons, one is the lack of emissions cuts, two were releasedtoo much carbon quotas. "Xie Zhenhua said simply.

In this regard, the Rasmus Helveg Petersen replied "your accusations are absolutely right", and alsostated that the EU's carbon market did not follow the ideal mode of operation, and where is correctinginefficiencies.

When it comes to solutions, said Xie Zhenhua, combating climate change is not only going to work togetherfor common action in all countries, you also need to win-win co-operation between government departmentsand enterprises.

"Entrepreneurs have talked about the stability of the carbon market, and multilateral negotiating processes. Emissions cuts and not enough now, markets are unstable, which is of importance in tacklingclimate change issues. If it is determined that a long-term and stable aggressive emissions reductiongoals, and that Governments can provide incentives, entrepreneurs saw the prospects would have beenwilling to innovate and invest. ”

Xie Baiman apparently highly recognized, even immediately shook hands with Xie Zhenhua, agrees: "stablecarbon price, market regulation, scientific research, and better financing options are very important tous. ”

But when it comes to the Chinese market, said Xie Zhenhua, according to World Bank estimates, cumulative energy from 1990 to 2010, China's share of global 58%. China is also actively developing renewable energy,the current 24% of the world in installed renewable energy capacity in 2013, the installed capacity ofrenewable increases 37% of the world.

In addition, Xie said, China is also vigorously develop nuclear energy, not only is the world's largest number of nuclear power plants under construction, and the target is to raise the proportion of primaryenergy consumption of fossil energy to 15% (currently 9%). But he repeatedly stressed that the premise isto "ensure security".

"Whether in the Government or businesses, to treat climate challenge as an opportunity for alternative development and lifestyle. Government to find a path of green and low carbon cycle, entrepreneurs in thepursuit of profit while also fulfilling their social responsibilities, to find a win-win approach todevelopment. So it is to find a transformation and upgrading of roads. , "Xie said.
