Market scale analysis of China's environmental protection industry in 2018

In recent years, the environmental protection industry has ushered in a golden period of development. As a subdivision of the environmental protection industry, ecological environment testing has also fully enjoyed policy dividends and ushered in a period of rapid development. 1. The market scale of the environmental protection industry is driven by the country’s acceleration of the construction of ecological civilization and the increase in public awareness of environmental protection. China’s environmental protection industry has grown rapidly. The total output value has increased from 2.990.87 billion yuan in 2012 to 4.553.17 billion yuan in 2015. A year-on-year increase of 16.4%. The output value of China's environmental protection industry from 2000 to 2015. In 2017, the market scale of China's environmental protection industry is analyzed during the '13th Five-Year Plan' period. During the '13th Five-Year Plan' period, my country's ecological civilization construction will advance in depth. Maintain rapid development. It is estimated that my country's environmental protection industry will maintain a growth rate of about 18% from 2016 to 2018. By 2018, the output value of the environmental protection industry will reach 7.4799 billion yuan. 2016-2022 China's environmental protection industry output value forecast analysis of the market size of China's environmental protection industry in 2017 2. The market size of the ecological environment testing industry According to the 'Implementation Opinions on Supporting the Reform of the Environmental Monitoring System' jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Environmental Protection, by 2018, my country will comprehensively complete the work of raising the power of national monitoring sites and state-controlled cross-section monitoring. In addition to sensitive environmental data, the environmental monitoring sites and monitoring sections collected by the central government will, in principle, adopt the method of government purchases of services, and select third-party professional companies for custody and operation. The market-oriented reform of ecological environment detection is deepening, and the third-party custody operation mechanism Generally implemented, the ecological environment testing industry will show explosive growth. It is predicted that in 2016, the scale of my country's environmental testing industry will reach 43.4 billion yuan, and by 2020, the scale of the environmental testing field will reach 87.8 billion yuan. Market scale of my country's environmental testing industry In 2017, analysis of market size of China's environmental protection industry according to different testing fields, ecological environment testing can be divided into water quality testing, atmospheric testing, soil testing, noise testing, radiation testing, etc. The company’s ecological environment testing is mainly water quality Testing, atmospheric testing and soil testing.  (1) Water quality testing market   In recent years, my country’s water resources situation has been severe. The country has successively introduced a number of environmental protection policies to promote the improvement of water environment quality and continuously increase investment in water pollution prevention and control. From 2010 to 2015, the amount of fiscal expenditure in the field of water pollution prevention and control in my country increased rapidly from 36.487 billion yuan to 53.461 billion yuan, with a compound growth rate of 7.94%. Specifically, the treatment of the Heiwu River will become a hot spot in the field of water pollution prevention and control. According to the results of the first round of national black and smelly water investigations jointly announced by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Ministry of Environmental Protection, more than 70% of the 295 cities at prefecture-level and above in the country have detected black and smelly water bodies, and the total number of black and smelly water bodies has been identified. 1,861. Assuming that each river invests 200-300 million yuan, it corresponds to a market space of 372.2-5583 billion yuan. In April 2015, the State Council issued the 'Water Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan' (the 'Ten Water Regulations'), proposing that by 2020, the black and odorous water bodies in urban built-up areas at prefecture-level and above should be controlled within 10%. By 2030, urban built-up areas should be controlled within 10%. The overall goal of the treatment of black and odorous water bodies is eliminated. It is predicted that to achieve the 2030 black and odorous water treatment target, the corresponding investment demand may exceed 700 billion yuan.   In addition, the 'National Urban Drinking Water Source Environmental Protection Plan (2008-2020)' has repeatedly emphasized that the monitoring capacity of urban drinking water sources will be improved in the future, and drinking water monitoring will become a key measure for water pollution prevention and control. At the same time, as the pace of urbanization in my country accelerates, the water quality requirements for landscape rivers in future cities will also continue to increase, so the corresponding water quality testing market will continue to expand. (2) Atmospheric testing market In the battle of water, gas, and soil environmental protection, air governance has been highly valued in recent years, and the country has also issued a number of governance policies and measures, such as the 'Regarding the Promotion of Joint Prevention and Control of Air Pollution' The 'Guiding Opinions on Improving Regional Air Quality' and the 'Air Pollution Prevention and Control LawMonitoring data shows that in 2016, only 84 cities in the country's 338 prefecture-level and above cities met the environmental air quality standards, accounting for 24.9% of the total number of cities; 254 cities exceeded the environmental air quality standards, accounting for 75.1%. As one of the important tasks of air pollution prevention and control, the market capacity of VOCs treatment has been continuously expanding. In 2015, the market capacity of the VOCs treatment industry has reached 10 billion yuan; it is estimated that the overall emission reduction of VOCs in China from 2016 to 2020 will be about 4.5-5 million tons. Under the strong promotion of policies, it is expected that the market size of the VOCs governance industry during the '13th Five-Year Plan' period will usher in explosive growth, reaching about 90-100 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 20-25%, of which 16 are under total control The provincial investment will reach 50 billion yuan12. The explosive growth of VOCs governance will surely drive the growth of corresponding VOCs testing business.
