REEI 2021/09/13

China will put its carbon emissions peak and carbon neutrality goals into the country's medium- and long-term development plans to further fulfill the promises made to strengthen global climate cooperation, announced China's climate envoy Xie Zhenhua during the Beautiful China Forum 100 held in Beijing on Saturday. 

Xie mentioned that a special working group has been established to design a policy system targeting carbon emission reductions. 

The system will firstly coordinate carbon emission reductions with security issues in multiple sectors, like energy, food, industry and supply chain, and designate peak carbon emissions and carbon neutrality goals as the major strategy to form a new production and lifestyle system, said Xie at the forum. 

The latest technologies will be applied to various phases of overall carbon emissions reduction strategies. Cutting-edge technologies, such as solar power batteries and hydrogen production from renewable energy, the development of intelligent power grid, advanced power storage system and carbon collection technologies, will be enhanced.
