将GEP纳入生态补偿绩效考核评估分析

随着十八大以来我国生态文明建设进程的加快,生态补偿的实践也在快速推进,在生态补偿机制不断完善的过程中,对生态补偿机制的实施效果进行考核评估是确保机制运行效率的核心问题。对将GEP纳入生态补偿绩效考核的必要性和可行性进行了研究。研究表明:现有的生态补偿绩效考核机制存在一定缺陷,而基于GEP的生态补偿绩效考核能够激发受偿主体在生态系统服务供给方面的创新潜力;从与基于生态系统服务产出的其他绩效考核的相容性来看,GEP对于生态系统服务评估的扭曲程度更低,可以作为县域环境考核的优化指标;从与基于活动类型的绩效考核的相容性来看,将GEP纳入生态补偿绩效考核体系并不是简单否定基于活动类型的绩效考核体系的作用。将GEP纳入生态补偿绩效考核需要将其与现有绩效考核体系有机结合,它特别适用于生态综合补偿机制下生态补偿绩效考核。

Evaluation of the incorporation of gross ecosystem product into performance appraisals for ecological compensation

With the promotion of ecological civilization in China, since the 18th CPC National Congress, eco-compensation practices have advanced rapidly. Evaluation of implementation effectiveness is the core issue to ensure continuous improvement in the efficiency of the eco-compensation mechanism. This study analyzes the necessity and feasibility of incorporating gross ecosystem product (GEP) into the performance appraisal for ecological compensation. The existing performance appraisal mechanisms need to be further improved. The performance appraisal of eco-compensation based on GEP is a direct appraisal based on the output of ecosystem services. An appraisal based on GEP can unlock the innovation potential of subjects that receive compensation from the supply of ecosystem services. GEP has less distortions of the evaluation of ecosystem services, and thus, can be used as an optimization index for county-level environmental appraisals. However, we cannot include GEP in the performance appraisal system of eco-compensation, as this would deny the role of the performance appraisal system based on types of activities. Several policy recommendations are proposed based on these findings, such as organically combining GEP with the existing performance appraisal system, exploring the establishment of comprehensive eco-compensation mechanisms, and reducing the loss of eco-compensation efficiency through the improvement of appraisal and incentive mechanisms
