"Dual Carbon" Target
"Dual carbon" means the abbreviation of " carbon peak" and " carbon neutrality" .
Carbon peak refers to the process in which carbon emissions no longer grow and gradually decline after reaching the peak.
Carbon neutrality means that in a specific time, each object's future "emission of carbon" is the same as the "absorbed carbon".
Actively and steadily promote carbon peak and carbon neutrality

How to achieve "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality"?
Achieve carbon peak and carbon neutrality is a major strategic decision made by the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core after careful consideration. It is an inevitable choice to focus on solving prominent problems in resource and environmental constraints and realize the sustainable development of the Chinese nation. It is also a solemn commitment to building a community with a shared future for mankind.
In the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized, "Based on my country's energy resource endowment, we insist on establishing first and then breaking, and implementing the carbon peak action in a planned and step-by-step manner." "Improving the regulation of total energy consumption and intensity, focusing on controlling fossil energy consumption, and gradually shifting to the 'dual control' system of total carbon emissions and intensity."
Anchor your goals and forge ahead. All regions, departments and industries have fully implemented the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, deepened the construction of ecological civilization, continued to implement the national strategy of actively responding to climate change, adopted strong policy measures, and made continuous new progress in green and low-carbon development. Green is increasingly becoming the distinctive background color of high-quality economic and social development in my country.
Implement the "dual carbon" goal
Unswervingly follow the path of high-quality development with ecological priority and green and low carbon
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clarifies the overall goals of my country's development by 2035. "Widely forming a green production and lifestyle, steady decline after carbon emissions peak, fundamentally improving the ecological environment, and basically achieving the goal of a beautiful China" is an important part of it.
How to implement relevant deployments and requirements and actively and steadily promote carbon peak and carbon neutrality?
Li Gao, Director of the Department of Climate Change of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, said that we must insist on taking the coordinated efficiency improvement of pollution reduction and carbon reduction as the overall means to promote the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development, strengthen source governance, systematic governance, and comprehensive governance, accelerate the adjustment of industrial structure, energy structure, etc., and form an industrial system, energy system and lifestyle characterized by green and low carbon.
Strengthen top-level design
Incorporate climate change response into the overall layout of ecological civilization construction and the overall economic and social development
Climate change is a common challenge facing all mankind. my country has always attached great importance to climate change response and unswervingly followed the path of ecological priority and green development. It is an important participant, contributor and leader in the construction of global ecological civilization.
In September 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping officially announced at the general debate of the 75th United Nations General Assembly: "China will increase its national independent contribution and adopt more powerful policies and measures, strive to peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and strive to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060."
Promote transformation and development
Accelerate the adjustment and optimization of industrial structure, energy structure, transportation structure, etc.
After completion, the average annual power generation will reach 2 billion kilowatt-hours, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1.6 million tons. In Ganzi, Sichuan, Guotou Yalong River Kela Photovoltaic Power Station is in full swing, which is the world's highest water-light complementary power station.
It can store 1 million kilowatt-hours of electricity at a time, satisfying about 80,000 households' daily electricity consumption for one day. In Huzhou, Zhejiang, the State Power Investment Corporation's comprehensive smart zero-carbon power plant project is being carried out in an orderly manner, which is the world's largest lead-carbon energy storage power plant.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed: "Accelerate the adjustment and optimization of industrial structure, energy structure, transportation structure, etc.." my country has accelerated the construction of a green, low-carbon and circular economic system, vigorously promoted green production methods, promoted the energy revolution and resource conservation and intensive utilization, coordinated and increased efficiency of pollution reduction and carbon reduction, and achieved coordinated and unified economic and social development and ecological and environmental protection.
