Wang Jinnan was elected
as Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering
On November 27, 2017, the Chinese
Academy of Engineering formally announced the results of the 2017 academician
cooptation. The cooptation of the academicians in 2017 was officially launched
at the beginning of the year. After two rounds of reviews, election by the
department, and final election by all academicians of the academy, 67 new
academicians were elected of 533 valid candidates. Researcher Wang Jinnan of
our Academy was elected as the academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering in
2017.
Researcher Wang Jinnan is born in Wuyi,
Zhejiang. Since 1981, he has obtained the bachelor's degree, master's degree
and doctoral degree of Tsinghua University. He is currently Director of the
Chinese Academy for Environmental Planning, Head of the State Key Laboratory of
Environmental Planning and Policy Simulation and serves as the doctoral tutor,
the second-level researcher, and the adjunct professor at Peking University,
Nanjing University and Renmin University of China. He is mainly engaged in
environmental planning and management research and has successively served as
the expert and theme group leader of major national scientific and
technological water specialists, the expert of the national special general
atmospheric group, the expert of the national expert team for atmospheric
research, Chairman of the Professional Association for China's Environment,
Member of the Science and Technology Committee of the Ministry of Environmental
Protection, Senior Consultant of Natural Resources Defense Council , Standing
Director of Chinese Society For Environmental Sciences, and other academic
positions; He has served as deputy editors and editors of 7 domestic and
foreign magazines, such as China Environmental Management and China
Environmental Science; published more than 300 papers, 11 monographs and 4
series of books. He is one of the engineering talents among the first batch of
national “Thousand Talents Program” and national science and technology leaders
in environmental protection. He has received special government allowances of the
State Council, won the titles of the expert directly under the Central
Committee of the Communist Party of China, China Youth Science and Technology
Award, Special Award for Green Chinese Characters, Earth Sustainable
Development Award, national advanced environmental science and technology
worker and so on; and won the second prize of the Scientific and Technological
Progress Award for two times , third prizes of the Scientific and Technological
Progress Award for 3 times and 18 awards at ministerial and provincial
levels(including 7 first prizes at the ministerial level).
Since the "7th Five-Year Plan"
period, Wang Jinnan has devoted himself to the research on environmental
planning and management and successively completed more than 30 national key
scientific research projects, making a number of achievements in this field. In
view of the lack of space guidance in China's environmental planning and the
big difference in pollution emission reduction space, etc., he put forward an environmental
planning system that takes "environmental division as the foundation,
environmental capacity as the basis, quality improvement as the target and
pollution reduction as the means", and established the environmental
function zoning method system and environmental function division technology
solutions. In accordance with the "anti-constraint" principle of
environmental quality and based on the improved WRF-CAMx model and various
kinds of emission inventory, he led the team to complete the PM2.5-compliant
atmospheric capacity algorithm and its capacity results; he presided over and
participated in more than 20 environmental protection plans, including the
national environmental protection during "Eleventh Five-Year" and
"Twelfth Five-Year" periods, the Action Plan for Air Pollution
Prevention and Control, and relevants plans in the Pearl River Delta, the
Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and the Xiong'an New Area;
as there lacks empirical experience for the management of major emission
reduction projects in China, he put forward a major environmental protection
project management mode based on “capacity - emission reduction - effect -
policy”; set up the SO2 emission performance method and emission reduction
project plan in the electric power industry, proposed the management system of
controlling increment, reducing stock and improving quality, three
“reductions”, three “checks” and “three methods” in combination with pollution
reduction practices, and studied and proposed policies such as electric power
environmental protection price, environmental protection tax, emission trading
and ecological compensation for pollution reduction. In response to the
complexity and comprehensiveness of the impacts of emission reduction projects,
he led the team to develop an platform to evaluate air pollution reduction
projects in terms of air quality improvement, GDP growth and employment impact,
public health loss benefits reduction, and green GDP accounting system and
methods, which has contributed to the development of national environmental
protection planning, pollution reduction project management, environmental
planning and environmental economics.
