On October 16, 5th International Low Carbon (Zhenjiang) Conference and 2021
Carbon Peak and Neutrality Jinshan Summit, with the theme of "Green and Low
Carbon Development: Industry, Energy, Technology" was held in Zhenjiang,
Jiangsu Province, according to the organization committee of International Low
Carbon Conference.
Carbon peak and Neutrality is a profound economic and social change. The
Chinese government announced in September 2020: strive to achieve carbon peak
by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. In the Chinese government's "Dual
Carbon" practice, Zhenjiang has always assumed the role of a pioneer.
Ma Minglong, Secretary of Zhenjiang Municipal Committee of the CPC said, "In
the past nine years of the low-carbon pilot, we have spared no effort to spread
low-carbon concepts, showcase low-carbon technologies, promote low-carbon
cooperation, and use the 'Zhenjiang Practice' of green and low-carbon
development, enriching the "China Plan" for climate and environmental
governance. As of 2021, the city's energy consumption per unit of GDP has
dropped by 37.7%, and its carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP has dropped
by 46.3%."
In the past nine years, Zhenjiang has promoted economic transformation and
industrial development through the exploration and practice of low-carbon
construction and green development. Since Zhenjiang vigorously carried out
chemical remediation in 2013, its chemical industry has dropped by more than
80% and gradually moved towards green high-end; various local laws and
regulations such as the "Regulations on the Protection of the Yangtze River
Coastline Resources in Zhenjiang " have been formulated; State Grid accelerates
the construction of Zhenjiang's new power system by creating clean and
interconnected smart grid and clean consumption model; many well-known domestic
financial institutions have made suggestions for Zhenjiang green economy
development. The green power of transformation and innovation of "Low-Carbon
Zhenjiang" make Zhenjiang burst into high-quality development vitality.
At the meeting, Chu Yonghong, Vice Governor of Jiangsu Province introduced,
"The 14th Five-Year Plan is a critical period for carbon peak. Zhenjiang must
effectively play its pioneer role in the carbon battle."
Aiming at the goal, Zhenjiang will develop the "Nine Ones" construction from
four aspects: low-carbon carrier construction, technology research, market
operation, and capacity improvement, to implement the "Zhenjiang Answers" of
carbon peak and neutrality.
