On the morning of March 5, the Fifth Session of the 12th National People's Congress was held in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. During the meeting, Premier Li Keqiang published a report on the government work. In the report, he stressed: We must resolutely fight the blue sky to defend the war. This year's emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides will fall by 3%, and the concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in key areas will decrease significantly. It is necessary to speed up the resolution of coal-fired pollution. Comprehensively implement comprehensive management of loose coal, promote clean heating in winter in the northern region, complete the replacement of coal by electricity and coal for more than 3 million coal, and completely eliminate small coal-fired boilers in urban built-up areas above the prefecture level. Increase the ultra-low emission and energy-saving renovation of coal-fired power plants. The eastern and central regions should be completed in this year and next, and the western region will be completed in 2020. We will promptly resolve the mechanism and technical issues, give priority to ensuring renewable energy power generation, and effectively alleviate the situation of abandoned water, abandoned wind, and abandoned light, and accelerate the utilization of straw resources.

The request made by Premier Li Keqiang at the National People's Congress has undoubtedly highlighted the country's determination to control air quality. As we all know, in recent years, the problem of air pollution in our country has become increasingly serious, and smog has occurred frequently, which has seriously affected the normal life of our people. In winter, a large number of residents use loose coal to burn and release a large amount of sulfur dioxide and respirable particulate matter. One of the main causes of air pollution.

At this conference, Li Keqiang once again reiterated the core concept of "to speed up the solution of coal-fired pollution problems", and also pointed out the direction and methods for air management in various regions in 2017. In fact, a few years ago, the northern part of the country began to implement the "coal to electricity" project, using air-energy heat pumps, electric heaters, such as clean heating methods that do not consume coal to replace coal-fired boiler heating.

Taking advantage of the national energy conservation and emission reduction policy, the air energy heat pump industry has developed rapidly. The selection of air-energy heat pumps for the “coal-to-electricity” project has gradually become a trend. The heat pump heating projects in various places are in full swing, bringing more wealth business opportunities for air heating. In 2016, “coal to electricity” reached the peak of scale. Beijing, Hebei, Shanxi, Tianjin and other regions simultaneously opened the “coal to electricity” project. Air-energy heat pumps are also characterized by energy saving, environmental protection and cleanliness. In many engineering cases, it has performed well and has been recommended by many experts as “the most suitable heating equipment for coal to electricity”. The heat pump industry has also expanded rapidly, and its market share in 2016 has directly exceeded 10 billion.

With the increase in the demand for the air energy heat pump industry, with the further advancement of the “coal to electricity” project, the air energy heat pump will undoubtedly usher in a greater development dividend in the heating market. Today, Premier Li Keqiang officially issued a related speech, which has further heated up the already hot air heat pump heating market. For the practitioners of the heat pump industry, there is also an unprecedented opportunity.
