Since the introduction of the industrial equipment renewal plan two months ago, 24 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) across the country have issued specific implementation details, supporting enterprises to accelerate the renewal of production equipment through fiscal, tax, and financial measures.
Recently, an automobile wheel hub bearing enterprise in Xiaoshan, Hangzhou, has invested 40 million yuan in a newly transformed intelligent production line, which is currently undergoing electrical debugging. The new production line can reduce the time to produce a bearing to within 15 seconds, greatly improving efficiency.
The policy that encourages enterprises to invest is a financial support policy for equipment renewal introduced by Zhejiang this year, specifically to alleviate the financial pressure of small and medium-sized enterprises. Enterprises can not only receive a 30% technical transformation subsidy for equipment investment but also obtain preferential loans through the "government, enterprise, and bank" tripartite financial guarantee system.
Currently, including Zhejiang, 24 provinces have issued implementation details, and all regions are promoting the replacement of inefficient equipment and the use of green equipment by implementing detailed fiscal, tax, financial, energy, and land support measures. Anhui, Shandong, Jiangsu, and other 15 provinces have created intelligent factories as benchmark demonstrations to drive the transformation of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain. Sichuan, Chongqing, and other places support leading enterprises and leading enterprises to build smart supply chains, guiding large enterprises to open their digital capabilities and help small and medium-sized enterprises in the industrial chain to undergo digital transformation.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that in the next step, it will increase fiscal, tax, and financial support, strengthen standard leadership, enhance factor protection, and establish a collaborative working mechanism to accelerate the renewal of industrial equipment. It aims to achieve a digital R&D design tool penetration rate of over 90% and a key process numerical control rate of over 75% for large-scale industrial enterprises by 2027.
