The 13th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) convened its third annual meeting, where key discussions and speeches were made. The meeting was led by Wang Yang, Chairman of the CPPCC, and attended by various notable members including Li Keqiang, Wang Huning, and others, focusing on pressing national issues.
One of the central topics was the development of new energy resources and the enhancement of energy efficiency in China. The committee emphasized the importance of advancing the utilization of renewable energy to meet the country’s growing energy demands while reducing carbon emissions.
According to recent data, China’s energy consumption from non-fossil sources is expected to rise significantly. By 2025, the goal is to achieve a 40% share of non-fossil energy in the total energy consumption mix. This aligns with the commitment to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
The CPPCC suggests several strategies to bolster new energy development:
- Strengthening policy frameworks for new energy infrastructure and consumption.
- Implementing rigorous standards for energy consumption and efficiency.
- Enhancing financial support for renewable energy projects to foster innovation.
- Encouraging public-private partnerships in the energy sector to stimulate growth.
- Investing in technology for sustainable energy production and usage.
These initiatives aim to create a robust framework for energy transition, ensuring that the energy sector can adapt to future challenges while promoting sustainable development.
The meeting concluded with a call for collective efforts from government, industry, and society to facilitate the growth of renewable energy sources, ensuring that China can effectively manage its energy demands and contribute to global sustainability efforts.
In summary, the CPPCC is advocating for a proactive approach to new energy development, focusing on policy enhancement, technological innovation, and collaborative efforts to secure a sustainable energy future for China.
