Energy saving and emission reduction is an important mean to adjust the economic structure, transform the development mode and improve the people's livelihood, which is an important measure to improve environmental quality and solve regional environmental problems. At present, all regions and departments in China are paying more and more attention to energy saving and emission reduction. Hebei is a big industrial province with outstanding industrialization characteristics. The proportion of total industrial energy consumption is much higher than the national average. It is the most critical area for promoting regional energy saving and emission reduction, and tapping the potential of energy saving and emission reduction. This paper analyzes the status quo of energy saving and emission reduction in the industrial field of Hebei Province, and the main problems in the process of energy saving and emission reduction in Hebei Province, and proposes corresponding solutions according to the causes of the problems. Energy saving and emission reduction is an important mean to adjust the economic structure, transform the development mode and improve the people's livelihood; it is an important measure to improve environmental quality and solve regional environmental problems. It is an effective way to solve the contradiction between supply and demand of energy, to reduce the costs, improve the efficiency, enhance enterprise competitiveness, and promote the sustainable development of regional economy. Continue to follow the traditional economic development mode at the expense of resource consumption and environmental pollution, which has not been able to adapt to the further development of Hebei's social economy. And as a traditional industrial province, Hebei's industrial energy consumption accounts for more than 70% of the total regional energy consumption. Therefore, the study of the status quo and existing problems of energy saving and emission reduction in the industrial sector of Hebei Province, and then explore the corresponding solutions, has a strong practical significance for promoting the realization of energy saving and emission reduction, industrial transformation and upgrading goals in Hebei Province. Status of Industrial Energy Saving and Emission Reduction in Hebei Province Industrial Energy Consumption Accounts for a LARGE proportion and Continues to Increase The proportion of energy consumption in the secondary and tertiary industries in Hebei Province continued to increase. Among them, the tertiary industry's energy consumption accounted for a small proportion of energy consumption but slowly increased, while the secondary industry's energy consumption has experienced a significant growth in the period from 2000 to 2013 and a significant decline in the period from 2014 to 2016. Among them, industrial energy consumption accounted for a higher proportion of total energy consumption. It has also experienced two stage: a significant increase from 2000 to 2013 and a rapid decline from 2014 to 2016. As shown in Table 1, between 2000 and 2016, the total industrial energy consumption in Hebei Province increased from 65.105 million tons to 2,110,000 tons. Although the total amount has dropped since 2014, it still 2.38 times higher than that in 2000. The ratio of industrial energy consumption to total energy consumption rose from 58.24% to 84.36%, and then fell back to 73.89% in 2016. Although there is a downward trend, compared with 2000, this proportion has increased by 17.65%.
