Ningxiaseeks tech-driven high-quality development
The Ningxia Hui autonomous region will continue to attract projects with advanced technology and low energy consumption in order to promote high-quality development and innovation, said the region's top official.
▲ Liang Yanshun, secretary of the Ningxia regional Party committee.
Ningxia has made significant strides in high-quality development in recent years, nurturing new quality productive forces while fostering development impetus, said Liang Yanshun, Party secretary of the region.
Liang said the instructions of President Xi Jinping, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, are the road map and guidelines for Ningxia and have given strong impetus to the region's opening-up and development.
Xi has placed high hopes on Ningxia's development and called on the region to better coordinate development and security, he said.
According to Liang, Ningxia has been one of the country's leading regions in terms of growth for seven consecutive quarters, with its GDP growing 6.6 percent year-on-year in 2023. Meanwhile, the region's energy consumption decreased 9.6 percent year-on-year.
The growth of high-end manufacturing in Ningxia also accelerated last year, with the added value of the high-tech manufacturing industry increasing 44.5 percent. Tax revenue from high-end equipment manufacturing surged 57 percent.
As the only national-level hub for computing power networks, Ningxia ranks first in the country on the "environmental index" of computing power resources. This year, Ningxia is expected to fully promote its development as the country's "computing power capital", with the added value of its digital economy to account for over 36 percent of the region's GDP.
With an average annual temperature of 8.8 C and average wind speed of 3.5 to 3.6 meters per second, Ningxia has long been recognized as the capital of computing power in Northwest China, as its conditions are considered ideal for building naturally wind-cooled data centers.
Amazon Web Services, for example, chose to build its data center in Ningxia after visiting numerous areas across China.
The region plans to build 330,000 standard racks, which are steel and electronic frameworks designed to house servers, by 2025, and the number is expected to increase to 700,000 by 2027.
Ningxia has also been accelerating construction of a green energy system, said Liang. The region, which has the nation's largest reserves of silica, has been actively promoting the development of its new materials industry in recent years, he added.
Liang said that the regional investment in research and development grew 12.7 percent last year, and Ningxia is committed to implementing more industrial innovation and converting more of its R&D achievements into new products and industries.
Ningxia will continue to prioritize environmental protection and integrate the protection and management of natural resources including mountains, rivers, forests, lakes, grasslands and deserts, he added.

用高质量落实推动高质量发展
不断开创现代化美丽新宁夏建设新局面
“我们牢记总书记殷切嘱托，立足‘发展不足是宁夏最大的实际’，以‘三十年河东、三十年河西’的辩证思维，着力抓人均水平和有质量的增速，去年地区生产总值增长6.6%、连续7个季度稳居全国第一方阵，不仅实现了高基数条件下的高增长，也实现了高增长下的高质量，万元GDP水耗下降15.2%、能耗强度下降9.6%，在污染防治攻坚战年度考核中获得优秀等次，提前两年完成‘十四五’主要污染物排放目标任务，成为全国高质量发展的一个缩影。”
3月6日，宁夏代表团举行开放团组活动，全国人大代表、宁夏回族自治区党委书记、人大常委会主任梁言顺用“三个统筹”朴实、鲜活介绍了宁夏探索高质量发展的新路子。
统筹高质量发展和高水平安全
“总书记反复强调，发展是基础、安全是底线，发展要促进安全，安全要保障发展。首先，我们要把握‘统筹’的内涵要求，总书记强调的‘统筹’不是简单的概念、更不是口号，而是有深刻内涵的。我们理解，至少要在目标上、任务上、措施上、项目上、精力上体现统筹。”
梁言顺书记用“三个100”的工厂故事生动诠释了宁夏在项目上统筹，包括引进和新上项目都要兼顾发展和安全两个方面的要求。
“我们引进了全球第一家‘三个100’乳业全数智化工厂，100名工人就可以创造100万吨年产量、100亿元年产值，现代化车间里很少见到工人，与人员密集的传统车间形成鲜明对比，大大降低了工人操作的安全风险，这就体现了发展和安全在项目上的统筹。”
“其次，我们注重用制度补安全短板，去年富洋事故后，我们痛定思痛，深刻汲取教训，自治区党委以安全生产为主题召开十三届四次全会，出台‘1+37+8’系列文件，这其中的‘37’是我们把改革开放以来全国各地发生的重特大安全生产事故系统梳理为37类，每一类制定一个预防方案，包括风险怎么防控、谁来防控、如何落实责任都有全链条的具体措施。”
“我们在财力紧张的情况下拿出92.5亿元提升本质安全，宁夏南部山区山高沟深路窄，很多路的拐弯处交通安全风险非常大，如果下雪结冰就更难走了，当地干部群众用堆土堆、编柠条防护栏等‘土办法’，在临崖临水的路段打造‘生命护栏工程’，有的柠条扎根路边，还成了一道风景线。”
统筹高质量发展和高颜值生态
“如何理解对发展与生态环保两者的统筹？总书记形象地指出‘绿水青山就是金山银山’，而且提出了‘绿水青山’向‘金山银山’的转换通道。对宁夏来说，绿水青山主要就是‘一河三山’。去过宁夏、了解宁夏的朋友知道，黄河作为母亲河的内涵在宁夏体现得尤为直接、尤为现实，如果没有黄河，莫说经济社会高质量发展，连生存都难，因为老天不怎么下雨下雪。因此，保护好‘一河三山’就拥有了金山银山。为此，去年9月宁夏回族自治区党委以生态环保为主题专门召开十三届五次全会，研究出台‘1+4’系列文件，目的是从制度上推进生态文明建设与经济社会发展相匹配。”
“在实践中，我们坚决贯彻落实习近平生态文明思想，按照总书记‘绿水青山就是金山银山’理念的要求谋项目、抓产业，尤其是在项目引进和立项时注重统筹兼顾发展和环保，对高污染、高耗能项目再挣钱也不要，从源头上把住关口、控住增量，大力引进科技含量高、污染少、能耗低的‘金娃娃’。”
“我们采取多项措施支持和扶持了一个特殊企业群体，他们以工业废水、废气、固废为原料生产有价值甚至高附加值的产品。我去了4家企业调研，有3家企业把工业尾气转化生成燃料乙醇、蛋白饲料等高附加值产品，还有1家企业专门消化工业固废生产硅基多元复合材料。这些‘另类’企业做的都是朝阳产业。”
统筹高质量发展和高品质生活
“总书记指出‘增进民生福祉是发展的根本目的’，这深刻阐释了发展和民生的关系。我们坚决贯彻落实总书记的重要指示，把为民造福作为最大政绩，去年近八成财力投向民生，在教育、医疗等方面的投入从不‘吝啬’。”
“宁夏地处西北，冬天比较冷，暖气热不热直接体现民生温度，自治区党委政府下了很大决心让老百姓家里暖和起来，现在95%的城镇家庭室内温度达到20℃以上，但我们更关注剩下5%的‘小百分比’，这5%的家庭达不到20℃，对每个家庭就是‘百分之百’的不暖和。做民生工作既要覆盖‘大多数’，也要顾好‘极少数’，努力把‘小百分比’的急难愁盼问题办到‘百分之百’。”
梁言顺对宁夏高质量发展充满信心，贯彻落实总书记关于高质量发展重要论述，宁夏作了一些探索，有的取得了阶段性成果，有的刚刚破题。宁夏将按照总书记指引的方向，一步一个脚印，用高质量落实推动高质量发展，不断开创现代化美丽新宁夏建设新局面。
