Research On The Transformation Of Investment Strategies And Benefits Of Thermal Power Companies Under The Background Of Dual Carbo

Judging from the current social and economic situation,there has been an increasingly obvious contradiction between environmental protection and economic development.At the United Nations General Assembly in September,2020,the government of China proposed to achieve peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060.At present,in China’s total energy consumption,coal accounts for a relatively high proportion,and the proportion of fossil fuels in carbon emission sources is as high as 84%.With the proposal of "double carbon targets",China’s carbon emission targets are under great pressure,which shows that China needs more low-carbon investment in the next few years,and low-carbon investment has become an inseparable and important part of the economic development.Therefore,it is of great theoretical and practical significance to carefully analyze the current development status of thermal power industry,at the same time,do a good job of transforming investment strategy in thermal power industry based on low-carbon economy,and correctly grasp the development prospect of thermal power industry.Based on the above background,this paper first sorts out the literature and articles about the dual-carbon goal,and then takes ESG concept,externality theory,stakeholder theory and sustainable development theory as theoretical support;Because the traditional power generation mode of thermal power enterprises is still dominated by fossil fuels,and its characteristics of high emission,high energy consumption and high pollution make it a large carbon emission reduction household under the background of double carbon target,this paper takes the low-carbon investment of Datang Power Generation,one of the five major thermal power generation enterprises,as an example,introduces the development background of Datang Power Generation and analyzes the necessity and feasibility of low-carbon investment in Datang Power Generation in detail by using the methods of literature research and case analysis.Then,the traditional thermal power enterprises should take on more social responsibilities under the background of double-carbon target,not only pay attention to the development of their own economic benefits,but also take into account the analysis of social and environmental benefits as a new starting point,and comprehensively analyze the benefits of low-carbon investment in Datang Power Generation from three aspects: economic benefits,social benefits and environmental benefits,so as to avoid the limitations of traditional evaluation index analysis to some extent.Finally,through research,this paper finds that the economic benefits of Datang Power Generation’s low-carbon investment under the background of double carbon will be affected by internal and external environmental fluctuations,such as market fluctuations,soaring coal prices,and installed pressure of clean energy.Although the company actively responds,the results are average.To some extent,this shows that the impact of low-carbon investment on financial benefits of enterprises is not good in a short period of time,and there is a certain lag,but it has improved both environmental benefits and social benefits,and puts forward relevant suggestions based on three aspects of enterprises,government and external environment.It can be seen that low-carbon investment by thermal power enterprises can still produce certain benefits.
