Original title: Industrial production is steadily recovering and digital upgrading is accelerating-the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology interprets industrial development in the first half of the year
In the middle of the year, the trend of the industrial economy has attracted much attention. In the face of pressure challenges and multiple uncertainties, how is the industrial economy developing? To stabilize industrial development, what measures will be introduced in the next step? At the press conference held by the State Council Information Office on the 19th, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology responded.
Responding to risks and challenges, industrial production is steadily recovering
Since the beginning of this year, a number of policies to stabilize the economy have continued to show effects, and various regions have launched intensive measures to support the development of the manufacturing industry. Thanks to policy support and the efforts of all walks of life in the industry, the industrial economy has maintained a momentum of recovery and development. In the first half of the year, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 3.8% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 0.8 percentage points faster than that in the first quarter. The year-on-year growth rates in May and June were 3.5% and 4.4% respectively, showing a trend of rising month by month.
Ministry of Industry and Information Technology spokesman Zhao Zhiguo said that the decline in profits of industrial enterprises has narrowed for three consecutive months. The steady recovery of key industries played a supporting role in stabilizing the industrial market. In May, the profit of the equipment manufacturing industry increased by 15.2% year-on-year, maintaining double-digit growth for two consecutive months. The profits of industries such as automobile manufacturing, electrical machinery and equipment manufacturing maintained relatively high growth.
It is worth mentioning that the upgrading of industrial exports has injected vitality into the recovery of the industrial economy. In the first half of the year, exports of the "three new products" represented by new energy vehicles, lithium-ion batteries, and solar cells increased by 61.6% year-on-year.
"Currently, the development of the industrial economy is still facing difficulties such as insufficient demand and declining profits. But judging from the trend, the fundamentals of my country's sustainable industrial development have not changed." Zhao Zhiguo believes that more attention should be paid to expanding effective demand and doing a good job in stabilizing the industry. Key industries, enhance endogenous power.
He said that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will put stable growth in a more prominent position, accelerate the implementation of policies to promote automobile and household consumption, and step up the formulation and implementation of work plans for stable growth in ten key industries such as automobiles, electronics, and steel. In terms of efforts to expand effective demand, we will carry out the "three products" campaign for consumer goods and raw materials, organize new energy vehicles, smart home appliances, and green building materials to go to the countryside, and will cooperate with the China Development Bank to implement special loans to increase investment in manufacturing.
Empowering small and medium-sized enterprises through quality leadership
Accelerate the rescue of enterprises and inject endogenous impetus into the stable operation of industries.
Since the beginning of this year, a series of policies to support enterprises have been issued from the central government to the local government. The majority of small and medium-sized enterprises have faced difficulties and worked hard to move forward. The overall production and operation of small and medium-sized enterprises has maintained a recovery trend. Among them, the operating income and profit growth of "little giants", specialized and special new enterprises are higher than those of industrial enterprises above the designated size, showing strong resilience.
At present, the foundation for the stabilization and recovery of small and medium-sized enterprises is not yet solid, and it is necessary to further increase support and effectively solve the difficulties faced by enterprises. Tao Qing, director of the Operation Monitoring and Coordination Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said at the press conference that nine departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "Special Action for Quality Standard Brand Value Assignment to Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (2023-2025)", focusing on the development needs of small and medium-sized enterprises , to take targeted measures to help small and medium-sized enterprises.
Tao Qing said that it will adhere to the orientation of the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises, and continuously promote and enhance the competitiveness and development of enterprises through quality improvement, standard guidance, and brand building. Provide professional training for small and medium-sized enterprises to guide enterprises to prevent and control quality risks; support specialized, special and new "little giant" enterprises to make good use of their "unique skills" advantages and actively participate in international standardization work; guide small and medium-sized enterprises to enhance brand awareness and promote brand standard implementation , Enhance corporate brand building capabilities.
Accelerate digital upgrade to improve quality and efficiency
At the press conference, a set of data attracted attention: Up to now, nearly 8,000 digital workshops and smart factories have been built in various places, of which more than 2,500 have reached the maturity level of smart manufacturing capabilities above level 2, and basically completed the digital transformation .
Facing pressure and challenges from costs and the market, industrial enterprises are improving efficiency, reducing costs and expanding development space through digital upgrading.
"Since the beginning of this year, the demand for transformation and upgrading of manufacturing enterprises has been continuously released, and the intelligent transformation of my country's manufacturing industry has maintained a good momentum." Tao Qing introduced that new scenarios, new solutions, and new models of intelligent manufacturing continue to emerge, promoting industrial quality and efficiency. and energy saving.
Green transformation also accumulates new kinetic energy for industrial development. Tao Qing said that technologies such as dry coke quenching and sintering waste heat power generation in the iron and steel industry are gradually popularized, and the application level of large-scale equipment such as 10-million-ton oil refining and million-ton ethylene in the petrochemical industry continues to increase. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has provided energy-saving monitoring and diagnostic services to more than 50,000 enterprises, improving energy resource utilization efficiency and enhancing resource recycling capabilities.
Tao Qing said that my country has established 45 national advanced manufacturing clusters in the fields of new-generation information technology, high-end equipment, new materials, and new energy, with the total output value of leading industries reaching 20 trillion yuan.
The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stated that it will focus on intelligent manufacturing, make overall plans for the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries and the cultivation and growth of strategic emerging industries, issue guidance on accelerating the green development of the manufacturing industry, and continuously strengthen the physical New impetus for economic development.
"We will further expand the high-level opening up of the manufacturing and information and communication industries, and promote the establishment of a mutually beneficial and win-win international industrial cooperation system." Zhao Zhiguo said.
