On the 9th, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Opinions on the Development of New Productivity". The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said that in the practice of developing new productive forces, we must always adhere to four principles to ensure that the development of new productive forces does not go astray, does not make rash advances, and does not become a bubble.
The "Opinions" propose to adhere to "innovation-led, reform-oriented, adapting measures to local conditions, establishing first and breaking down later".
The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said that these four principles are the Party Central Committee’s profound grasp of the objective laws of the development of new productive forces. They are a correction for problems that arise in practical exploration such as blind layout and investment that are divorced from reality, rushing to develop emerging industries and future industries, neglecting the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and focusing on development over reform. The "Opinions" emphasize the development of new productive forces by first establishing and then breaking, which is to guide everyone to smoothly continue the conversion of old and new driving forces.
Cracking the "two skins" of technology and economy
Pay more attention to demand-side efforts
To develop new productive forces, reform must be a key step. The "Opinions" emphasize "focusing on the close integration of science and technology and economy to deepen reform." What kind of signal is released behind this?
The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission stated that the "Opinions" emphasized "focusing on the close integration of science and technology and economy to deepen reform", and answered that the main direction of the reform of the science and technology system has not changed, that is, we must continue to focus on the close integration of science and technology and economy, crack the "two skins" of science and technology and economy, and deepen the reform of the science and technology system.
For example, in the past, in order to solve the "two skins" problem of science and technology and economy, it was emphasized that the achievements of scientific and technological innovation should be transformed into real productivity and the close integration of industry, academia and research, etc., and the industrial chain was laid out around the innovation chain. While continuing to emphasize supply-side reform, the "Opinions" pay more attention to demand-side efforts.
The "Opinions" require "deploy scientific and technological tasks on demand in major national engineering projects, improve the demand-oriented topic selection system, the management system with consistent responsibilities and rights, and the application-oriented evaluation system", and put more emphasis on deploying innovation chains around the industrial chain.
The energy revolution is a new round of scientific and technological revolution
and key tracks for industrial transformation
The "Opinions" highlight "actively promoting the energy revolution." The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said that currently, the energy revolution marked by green and low carbon is comprehensively crossing the inflection point of technology accumulation and entering the stage of rapid commercialization and large-scale development.
According to the relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission, according to the International Energy Agency, the total global energy investment is expected to reach 3.4 trillion US dollars in 2026, of which 2.2 trillion US dollars will be invested in clean energy fields such as wind power, photovoltaics, energy storage, and hydrogen energy. These fields have become important directions for the global layout of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation.
