In recent years, China's energy conservation and environmental protection industry has maintained a growth rate of more than 10%. During the 13th five-year plan period, the total investment in environmental protection industry is expected to exceed 17 trillion yuan.However, in general, China's environmental protection industry is still in the early stage of development, and 2018 has been called the "development winter period" by the environmental protection industry. Many private listed environmental protection enterprises are suffering from financial crisis, and some leading enterprises in the field have problems in terms of revenue and capital.Can the environmental protection industry come out of the cold winter in 2019?How should the environmental protection industry "keep fit"?
 

China's environmental protection industry started in the 1970s. After more than 40 years of development, it has become a comprehensive industry covering environmental protection equipment manufacturing, environmental protection engineering, environmental protection services, comprehensive utilization of resources, ecological industry and other fields.According to statistics from the China environmental protection industry association, as of 2018, there are 120 A-share environmental protection enterprises and 353 NEEQ environmental protection enterprises in China.

As the whole society and the government pay more and more attention to environmental protection, the conditions for the environmental protection industry itself has been faced with significantly improved.Shanghai, for example, spends about 3% of its GDP on environmental protection each year.The visit of people from all parts of the society at the Shanghai World Environmental Expo also shows the increasing attention paid by the society to the environmental protection industry.At present, the government has implemented stricter regulations and higher environmental protection standards. A number of environmental protection standards have been constantly updated to meet higher environmental protection requirements.When it comes to the upgrading of environmental protection standards, take water treatment for example. Ten years ago, when we entered the industry, some projects were secondary treatment standards.Now environmental protection requirements are higher, national and local standards have been greatly improved
 

The environmental protection industry has experienced a "wintry" development in 2018. The whole environmental protection industry is still a sunrise industry. In the future, the country's investment in the whole field will only increase rather than decrease.The environmental protection industry must go through a process of "from enlightenment to growth to excitement to return to normal", which is an inevitable process for the growth of the industry.After the baptism, the environmental protection industry will find its own law of development, so as to return to the nature of the industry.Especially from the perspective of "technology + service" to understand the industry, "process digestion" will leave a number of backbone enterprises, the remaining backbone enterprises will be more healthy development, will have a better profit performance.With such a large market, China is bound to develop a number of world-class environmental protection enterprises.
