Abstract

Based on sample survey of 68 corporations in City D, this study analyzes corporate awareness, behavior, performance and policy needs of energy saving and pollution reduction in the "12th five-year" period, with the help of questionnaires and face to face interview. The empirical analysis of 68 corporations in City D demonstrated that corporate characteristics as scale, ownership, listed situation, target market and national environmental policy had important impacts on corporate energy saving and pollution reduction awareness, behavior and performance. Besides, enterprises in City D hadn't completed the targets set by the central and local government. However, emission reduction policy was better implemented than energy saving policy and it was more difficult to realize energy saving targets. Taking current policy problems into consideration, sufficient preferable policies should be drawn up and binding targets should be allocated differently during "13th five-year period.
