Himin Solar Energy Group
Founded in 1995, Himin Solar Energy Group has been developed into a solar energy industry with integrated
R & D, testing, manufacturing, marketing for solar products and projects such as solar evacuated glass tubes, solar
water heaters, solar split type central hot water system, heat pipe collectors, U-pipe collectors, solar water heating
projects, solar lamps, solar cells, solar energy saving glass and electronic devices used for solar units. Now it has
become the largest manufacture base of solar water heaters and vacuum tubes in the world.
Himin Group cooperates with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, German FRAUNHOFER Institute for technical
research. In 2007, Himin self-developed the first auto production line of vacuum tubes in the world to realize the
industrial system in solar field.
Himin has obtained the ISO9000 certificate, CE certificate, TUV and SOLAR KEYMARK certificates on
products and made solar products more accessible to average consumers worldwide. The markets include Germany,
America, Canada, Britain, Australia, Spain, Russia, Brazil, and Malaysia, etc.
In recent years, Himin has been producing in average of 2 million square meters of solar heat collectors each year.
The application of its solar products has reduced the CO2 emissions significantly. The accumulated coal saving in
the last ten years has reached over two million tons and the corresponding pollution has been reduced
equivalently.
On May 5th, 2006, board chairman Mr. Huang Ming attended the 14th UN Conference on Sustainable
Development to introduce experience and commercialization of the solar industry. In September 2008, he was
elected Vice President of International Solar Energy Society (ISES), and formally took charge in October.
In 2011, Huang Ming won the Right Livelihood Award for developing cutting-edge technologies for harnessing
solar energy
China Solar Valley
[China Solar Valley] The scenic zone is located in the Solar City of China - Dezhou Economic Development
Zone, the venue for the 2010 World Solar Conference. It is the world’s only center for solar thermal utilization
integrating production, manufacturing, research and tourism, vacation, recreation and entertainment into an organic
whole. It is also a national 4A level industrial tourist attraction. The Solar Valley is the first solar theme park in the
nation boasting five world-class renewable energy centers and ten solar architectures. The whole Valley covers an
area of 5,000 mu (335 hectares), showcasing a variety of energy efficient buildings using solar-based
energy-saving technologies and is known as the “Model Green City of the 21st Century”. It has the green Five-Star
Solar Valley Micro-E International Hotel and the Seven-Star Theme Park Hotel; Solar History & Science
Technology Museum with the mission of carrying forward the solar cultural heritage and drawing the blueprint of
solar energy development. It has also in its possession the world’s longest Optical Avenue, the Solar Valley Gate
making a comprehensive use of solar technology, the Solar Valley Cultural Street and the Renewable Energy
Theme Park, as well as the Universe Hot Springs.
China Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Group
China Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Group (CECEP), formerly
the China Energy Conservation and Investment Corporation (CECIC), was
established by the Chinese Government in 1988 for the promotion of energy
efficiency, and is the most powerful investment holding group in the fields of energy
conservation and environmental protection in China.
Its remit includes technologies for environmental conservation and improvement. The
company works within three main sectors: clean energy and
technology, environmental protection and treatment, and energy-efficient
construction.
CECEP has ten professional subsidiaries and six regional subsidiaries; its projects are
located in the economically developed east and resource-rich west of China. It is
responsible for the investment of ¥23 billion in national energy conservation capital
construction projects and provides more than ¥30 billion local investment. It has so
far completed more than 3,000 such projects.
As a state-owned enterprise, the company is entirely sponsored and owned by the
central Government. The corporation has 172 wholly owned and holding subsidiaries
with over 30,000 employees, and is China’s strongest, largest and most competitive
industry group in its field.
By 2012, CECEP plans to reach ¥100 billion in total assets, ¥50 billion revenue and
¥5 billion profit and aims to save 12 million tons of carbon emissions annually.
CECEP’s aim is to apply the strategic prominence and strength of a government
operation to catalyze the shift towards an energy saving and environmentally friendly
society. The group provides products and services to public and private sectors for
energy saving and environmental protection, contributing to the sustainable
development of China’s national economy.
With domestic and foreign capital, technology, personnel and leadership, the development of
China's energy saving and environmental protection industry will help build a low carbon
China.
SINO-SINGAPORE TIANJIN ECO-CITY
Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-city is the result of a collaborative agreement between the
governments of China and Singapore to jointly develop a socially harmonious, environmentally
friendly and resource-conserving city in China. Designed to be practical, replicable and scalable,
the Tianjin Eco-city will demonstrate the determination of both countries in tackling
environmental protection, resource and energy conservation, and sustainable development, and
serve as a model for sustainable development for other cities in China.
Location：The Eco-city site is located 40 km from the Tianjin city centre and 150 km
from Beijing. The site is 10 km from the core district of the Tianjin Binhai New Area (TBNA),
with the southern tip of the site only a 10-minute drive from the Tianjin Economic-Technological
Development Area (TEDA). The Eco-city is sited on non-arable land. Prior to development, the
site of the Eco-city was one-third saltpan, one-third deserted beach, and one-third water, including
a 270-hectare wastewater pond.
Key features：Green spaces will be interspersed throughout the city. Located in an area of low
rainfall, the Eco-city will draw a significant part of its water supply from non-traditional sources
such as desalinated water. Integrated waste management will be implemented in the Eco-city, with
particular emphasis on the reduction, reuse and recycling of waste. A light-rail transit system,
supplemented by a secondary network of trams and buses, will be the main mode of transportation
in the Eco-city. This will help to reduce its carbon emissions. Social harmony will be a key feature
of the Eco-city. An important instrument will be subsidised public housing in the Eco-city, which
will help to meet the housing needs of the lower and lower-middle income strata of society, and
enable people of different income and social strata to live near to, and interact with, one another.
The Eco-city will be barrier-free to cater to the needs of the elderly and the mobility-impaired.
Public social and recreational facilities will be located within easy access of homes to meet
residents’ needs and provide opportunities for residents to interact. The development of the
Eco-city will respect local heritage. The profile of the Ji Canal, which is 1,000 years old, will be
retained. Two existing villages within the Eco-city site will also be conserved through adaptive
reuse or partial rebuilding.
beijing chaoyang circular economy industrial park
The millions of people residing in Beijing consume resources and produce waste 24/7, yet
few know where this waste all ends up. If you go to the circular economy industrial park
you can witness how the Beijing Chaoyang Circular Economy Industrial Park processes
1,600 tons of garbage every day.
The Beijing Chaoyang Circular Economy Industrial Park had been constructed from
2002. Until now, sanitary landfill, medical waste treatment plant, waste incineration plant
and food waste treatment plants have been completed.
