Environmental Water Price Based on Water Environment Capacity and Ecological Water Consumption: A Case Study of Hefei

With the development and reform of water price policy, the most common view is that the total cost of water price can reflect the tradable traits of water resources, which can enhance the water use efficiency and achieve water resources sustainable utilization. Besides in actual pricing operation, from the angle of protection cost, water price characterizes the cost of controlling pollution and protecting water environment. Based on the two factors of water environment capacity and ecological water consumption embodied by the environment water price, this paper puts forward an effective environmental water price calculation model based on three elements of sewage treatment fee, ecological water price and water quality maintenance fee. And this paper takes the data of Hefei as an example, calculates reasonable environmental price, comparing which with the existing price, and finds the main existing problem which needs to be solved urgently in management.

According to Israeli agricultural water cost composition,water price sharing by farmers as well as government subsidy and its forms,the financial subsidy-based agricultural water price system has been established on the basis of the farmers' income in our country and reasonable water price sharing,thus to promote the development of water-saving agriculture in China.

The Impact of Water Price on the Financial Sustainability of the Palestinian Water Service Providers

The impactof water sales price on the performance of water service providers is typically something of a mystery. High prices mean more revenue and profit;but it may lead to less bills collection and encourage the illegal connections. Yet, this argument has not been fully addressed in the Palestinian water sector;this research evaluates the effect of average water prices on the financial sustainability key indicators as collection efficiency, profit or loss percentage, non-revenue water, staff productivity, daily consumption, operating, and maintenance cost. The average price of cubic meter sold is segmented into low, medium, and high categories. Multivariate analysis shows that there are significant differences in profit or working ratio, daily consumption, and operating cost based on the different price categories. Further significant differences have been found in non-revenue water, collection efficiency, and water production based on low and high price categories. On the other hand, no significant difference has been found in staff productivity. The results show high price set by Palestinian water providers, leads to an increase in the bill collection rate and profit margin. However, negative relationship has been found between the price on one hand, and non-revenue water, average daily consumption, and water production on the other hand. The implication of these findings reveal that the Palestinian water providers should increase water prices gradually to cover operating and maintenance cost for better financial performance and sustainability.

Price Analysis of Water Supply for South-to-North Water Transfer Project

The factors influencing the water supply price of a hydraulic project include natural conditions and economic policies. This paper thoroughly demonstrates the water price of South-to-North Water Transfer Project from the viewpoint of economic policies. It is considered that if the project is assigned as a profitable one and built depending on commercial loan from bank completely or mostly, the water price will be too high to be undertaken by users,and if the project places the public good at first while considering the economic benefit, its investment mainly relies on the state (national or local governments) appropriation and self-raised funds and a little from the bank loan on favorable terms, the price determined according to the principle of satisfying the cost and reasonable profit will be relatively lower and can be undertaken by the users in the North China where water shortage is serious. The problem of higher water price of agricultural irrigation to the north of the Yellow River can be tackled by taking measures such as "compensating agriculture by industry" according to foreign practical experiences and relevant suggestions.

水利工程供水价格常态化调整机制探索

为纠正水利工程供水成本长期大幅偏离价格,激励水利工程单位主动强化成本管理,需要建立水利工程供水价格常态化调整机制。水价调整既要考虑外围价格环境的传导作用引起的成本刚性增长,也要考虑供水服务质量和管理单位成本控制因素,构建水利工程供水价格与生产管理要素价格的联动机制。

基于全价值和全成本模型的农业水价方案及其可行性分析

针对现行农业水价标准过低的问题,选取粮食主产区——黑龙江省为研究区域,从农业用水全价值和全成本出发,利用能值理论分析确定农业用水价值,采用全成本水价法确定用水成本,结合现行水价制定不同情境下农业水资源定价方案;运用双对数模型建立农业用水需求价格函数,揭示水价提升带来的研究区域节水潜力,结合指数分析法确定农户可承受能力,从而判断所制定水价方案的可行性。结果表明:2020年,农业水资源全价值为0.594元/m^(3),地表水与地下水全成本分别为0.180元/m^(3)和0.355元/m^(3);针对设计的3种阶梯水价调整方案,利用2005、2010、2015、2020年进行实证分析,过渡期和长期水价方案平均年节水量分别可达2.72×10^(9)、4.45×10^(9)m^(3),平均年节水潜力分别为12.74%、19.48%,且一阶水价均在农户可承受能力范围,确定为可行方案。本文为研究区农业水价综合改革提供了支持,可结合实际情况逐步提高农业水价到合理水平。

国内外水资源价值与价格研究综述

针对学术界在水资源价值与价格方面的理论探索及其实践应用,以及目前水价面临的主要挑战,系统整理并归纳了水资源价值研究进展,水资源定价方法和水资源计价方式的种类、适用范围,以及与价值理论相对应的定价模型。研究结果表明:目前对于水资源多元价值的研究仍处于初级阶段,对水资源多元价值的认识不足;现有定价研究大多从单一角度出发,难以全面涵盖水资源社会价值、市场经济价值以及生态经济综合价值,且单一的计价方式不利于节水目标的实现。未来需要开展多维度评估价值、多角度制定价格以及多种计价方式研究,加强水价改革中市场机制的引入,应特别关注发展较慢的农业水价综合改革,以实现水资源的可持续利用。

关于水价、水权、水资源税费改革协同发力的思考

运用系统思维,深化水价形成机制、水权及水资源税改革,促进协同发力,是当前和今后一个时期深化水利改革的重点任务。文章在总结改革进展、分析新形势新要求的基础上,对水价、水权、水资源税费的基本属性、改革目的、重点内容进行理论解析,分析了三者间的耦合关系,提出了水价、水权、水资源税费改革协同发力的总体考虑和相关建议。

多用途条件下水经济价值的最小用水效益决定论

基于劳动价值论以及边际效用价值论,提出了价值的边际劳动价值决定论以及多用途条件下水经济价值的评估理论和方法,认为水经济价值取决于供需平衡时各种用途用水效益的最小值或供水成本的最大值。基于该理论和方法,对北京市原水经济价值进行了评估,结果表明,北京市的水经济价值是由效益低的农业用水界定,北京市农业用水效益的估计值更接近水的价值。结合可视为北京市边际供水成本的南水北调水价,2020年北京市原水经济价值应在2.33~4.82元/m^(3)之间。

基于生态补偿的南水北调后续工程水价研究

制定科学合理的跨流域调水工程水价是开展水源区生态补偿的重要途径之一。在现有水价的基础上,新增生态补偿作为水价的重要组成部分,运用机会成本法测算南水北调东线工程水源区生态补偿标准,并引入社会发展阶段系数和政府支付能力系数对其进行修正,构建计入生态补偿的南水北调后续工程水价定价模型。以南水北调东线一期工程胶东干线为例,得到2016、2020年水源区的理论生态补偿标准分别为116.121、199.992亿元,在现行价格基础上水价需分别提高0.93、4.51元/m^(3)。结果表明,生态补偿会耗费大量资金,只有当工程调水能力达到规划设计规模时,持续性调水才能逐步降低供水成本,否则水价会超出受水区的承受范围,工程效益也难以发挥。

社会资本参与农业水价综合改革的理论与实践研究

社会资本是水利基础设施建设重要的资金筹措渠道。建立社会资本参与农业水价综合改革机制,鼓励和引导社会资本参与到农田水利基础设施的投资建设、运营管理和维修养护等方面,能够扩大农田水利设施建设有效投资、提高农田水利基础设施和相关公共服务的供给能力,发挥“两手发力”的要素资源配置优势、提升水资源管理能力、优化水资源配置格局,促进农业用水方式由粗放向节约集约转变,提高水资源整体承载能力。文章从理论层面研究提出了社会资本参与农业水价综合改革的总体思路,梳理了社会资本参与农业水价综合改革的方式与内容;并以陆良县恨虎坝项目区为例,从实践层面总结归纳社会资本参与恨虎坝项目区农业水价综合改革的做法及成效,以期为相关地区推进农业水价综合改革提供参考。

基于动态博弈模型的多水源-多用户水价定价机制研究——以义乌市为例

水价是促进水资源合理配置的一个重要杠杆,关系到经济社会的健康发展,科学合理制定水价是实现健康有序发展的核心。当前我国水价的制定由于核准机制难以统一、成本形成时间不同、多水源-多用户的科学比价关系尚未建立等原因难以解决复杂的水资源配置问题。为推进分质供水和再生水利用,实现优质优价,发挥水价机制在多水源配置中的调节作用,建立科学合理的多水源-多用户均衡水价体系势在必行。本文从水价定价市场化的视角出发,充分考虑了多水源市场的供需状况、供求主体和其地因素在多水源定价过程中的作用机理,并以义乌市为例,构建地方政府、供水企业与用水户分别居于主导的Stackelberg博弈模型,对比分析了3个主体在不同情况下的均衡价格与收益。结果表明:在用水户占主导的情况下,多水源水价价格最低,供水企业占主导地位的情况下,总体收益最高,得到的价格体系为水库水-居民用户5.63元/m^(3),水库水-非居民用户6.20元/m^(3),水库水-特种用户6.21元/m^(3),河道水-非居民用户3.34元/m^(3),再生水-居民用户2.95元/m^(3),再生水-非居民用户3.06元/m^(3)。此价格体系可以实现供水企业盈利合理、用水户支付合理和水资源配置合理的均衡目标,为实现水资源市场化定价提供理论依据,同时为这一领域的后续研究提供思路参考。

基于费用效益分析的工业供水项目再生水定价

再生水利用系统建设需要综合考虑资源、环境、社会等外部效益,合理制定再生水水价才能有效激励政府和用水户选择再生水。通过研究构建了费用效益分析计算体系,综合考虑了再生水项目的建设运营费用和再生水项目相对其他水源供水产生的资源环境效益,利用增量净年值法评价再生水项目经济可行性,并提出替代方案法计算再生水的合理定价。将该方法应用于安吉县某工业用水项目的再生水定价中。通过分析可知:再生水供水方案相对自来水供水和西苕溪取水方案经济可行;在兼顾了不增加用水户用水负担和保护水资源环境的前提下,采用替代方案法计算得到再生水合理定价区间为1.26~1.41元/m^(3).

关于超计划(定额)累进加价与用水权交易制度竞合的初步思考

超计划(定额)累进加价制度已实行多年,对于强化节约用水管理发挥了重要作用。近年来,随着用水权改革的深入推进,两项制度在对公共供水管网内非居民用水户新增用水需求的管理上形成了竞合。文章基于对用水权权利范围边界的界定,提出了超计划(定额)累进加价与用水权交易制度竞合的破解思路,并从持续深化用水权改革实践探索、深化理论研究方面提出了对策建议。

考虑水质与水价影响的城市再生水需求研究

再生水是城市的“第二水源”,加强再生水配置利用对优化供水结构、增加水资源供给、缓解水量供需矛盾以及保障水生态安全具有重要意义。科学预测城市再生水需求是提高污水资源化利用水平的重要基础。在区域水资源需求分析基础上,充分考虑工业生产、城市杂用、河道补水、农林灌溉等4大领域的水量和水质需求特点,提出考虑水质与水价的分领域再生水需求预测技术框架。首先考虑水质影响,引入再生水可替代率指标,分析水资源需求总量中可由再生水供给的水量;其次,考虑自主定价模式下再生水价格对用户需求的影响,建立“补贴-价格-需求”模型,计算不同补贴情景下区域再生水的需求量;最后,应用于宿迁市中心城市。结果表明:在规划年2025和2030年的再生水利用率目标要求下,采用中等补贴情景能在有效推广再生水利用的同时兼顾政府财政压力,再生水需求量分别可达10095×10^(4)和13387×10^(4) m^(3)。本研究进一步拓展了城市再生水需求量预测的理论方法,也为宿迁市再生水利用配置提供了科学依据。

绿色转型背景下农业节水的政策演进、发展困境及破解对策

加强水资源节约集约利用,是保障国家粮食安全、促进农业可持续发展、推动农业强国建设的必然选择,是深入贯彻落实习近平生态文明思想和实施全面节约战略的重要内容。新发展阶段更加强调高质量发展,注重生产生活方式绿色转型,对水资源利用提出了新的更高要求,而农业节水仍然面临一些发展困境。这些困境主要来自不同政策目标之间的冲突、不同主体的利益目标不够一致、小农户与高效节水灌溉技术衔接不畅,以及智慧灌溉技术的推广和应用水平较低等方面。据此,要针对性地寻求摆脱农业节水发展困境的有效途径,进一步完善农业水价政策,建立健全以用水者为交易主体并在政府宏观调控下的水权交易制度,将灌区的人头费和维修养护经费纳入财政预算并建立相应的激励机制,加大对末级渠系的投资力度,因地制宜积极探索灌溉社会化服务模式,以落实全面节约战略,提升水资源节约集约利用能力。

Water pricing towards sustainability of water resources: a case study in Beijing

The role of water pricing for managing water resources is widely recognized in many areas of the world because of the increasing scarcity of water resources, a high competition between water uses and environmental degradation. Based on the analysis of cost of water, this paper explores which types of cost should be reflected in the water pricing enhancing the sustainability of water resources. The principle of full cost pricing in which the cost should include supply cost, opportunity cost and externalities is proposed as a means to achieve the sustainability of water resources. In a case study of Beijing, low water price is analyzed as one reason for unsustainable water consumption. Thus water pricing justified is necessary and pressing. It is proposed to justify water price in phased manner and eventually towards full cost pricing. The assessment of impacts on water resources by raising water price shows water pricing could alleviate the conflict between water supply and demand. This paper concludes that water pricing can play an effective role in enhancing the sustainability of water resources in Beijing.
