China's low carbon cities will be extended to 100

From 2005 to 2015, the growth rate of China's energy consumption by an average of 5.1% support 9.5% annual growth of national economy Dongguan Manufacturers, accumulated energy-saving of 1.57 billion tons of standard coal, equivalent to 3.6 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions reduction.

By 2020, energy consumption per unit GDP lower than in 2015 15%, in 2030 than in 2005 is expected to reduce more than 60%. For nearly 20 years, China's cumulative energy accounted for more than 50% of the world.

The morning of June 7, the second session of the China-us climate-smart/low-carbon cities Summit opens in Beijing, a two-day meeting. The Summit seeks to implement Chinese President and President Barack Obama signed the Sino-US joint statement on climate change-related initiatives, in promoting China-us in pragmatic exchanges and cooperation in the field of low carbon urban development.

36 cities in China had carried out low-carbon pilot

National development and Reform Commission, Zhang Yong, Deputy Director, Beijing's mayor Wang anshun, and United States Department of energy Deputy Minister yilishabai·she Sherwood-Randall, and United States Phoenix Mayor geleige·sitandun, attended the opening ceremony and delivered a speech.

Zhang said under the joint efforts of President Obama and Chinese President, succeeded in reaching agreement in Paris Paris climate conference, defines the general direction of global green and low-carbon development, marks based on broad participation, ability, practical and effective, win-win cooperation characterized by global climate governance system is gradually taking shape. He said that China, as the largest developing country and the largest developed country, needs to adapt to world trends in the development of green low carbon. At the time of developing the economy and improving people's livelihood, and fulfill their due international responsibility to accelerate the implementation of national independent contribution to the objectives and tasks, making a positive contribution to global climate change.

Zhang stressed that China highly values the role of cities in the implementation of the climate action goals initiative and creativity. Our low carbon in the 6 provinces in 36 cities pilot, covers 42% of China's population, 57% g d p and 56% of carbon emissions. The pilot provinces through research developed low carbon development target, planning low carbon development path, around peak target, exploration application market mechanism promoted low carbon development, exploration established enterprise carbon emissions report mechanism and carbon emissions management system and in system mechanism innovation, and industry structure transformation, and based capacity construction, aspects made has active of progress, formed has meet actual, the with features of low carbon development mode, created out a large number of city low carbon development of good experience, and good practices. These low-carbon cities will be China's development of green low carbon cities pioneer and leader. In order for these experiences and practices across the country within the larger demonstration, we have begun to further extend low-carbon pilot to 100 cities.

In addition, at the opening ceremony, Chinese and American local governments, research institutions, non-governmental organizations and enterprises during the opening ceremonies signed 27 low-carbon development cooperation agreements or memorandums of understanding.

China energy-saving nearly 20 years accounted for half of the world

China's Special Representative for climate change, Xie Zhenhua, and United States Special Envoy for climate change Jonathan Pershing, and United States trade and Development Agency Director lioukadiya·zhake, Beijing, Shenzhen, Lanzhou city and Zhenjiang city representative and United States Boston mayors Summit high level Forum and delivered a speech.

Xie Zhenhua said that China has always attached great importance to climate change, adopted a series of green, low-carbon development policy measures, implementation of the objectives, overcoming enormous difficulties, has made remarkable achievements. In achieving steady and fast economic development while trying to optimize the structure of production, efforts to improve energy efficiency and efforts to reduce energy intensity and carbon intensity.

He mentioned that the Eleven-Five, 35, China energy conservation and improving energy efficiency effect, Unit g d p energy consumption fell by 19.1% and 18.2%. From 2005 to 2015, the growth rate of China's energy consumption by an average of 5.1% support 9.5% annual growth of national economy, accumulated energy-saving of 1.57 billion tons of standard coal, equivalent to 3.6 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions reduction. By 2020, from 2015 to reduce energy consumption per g d p 15%, in 2030 than in 2005 is expected to reduce more than 60%. For nearly 20 years, China's cumulative energy accounted for more than 50% of the world.

In addition, the sharp reduction in carbon intensity, China, 2015 emission intensity lower than in 2005 to 38%. Decline in carbon intensity by 2020 compared with 2005 over 45%, by 2030, carbon emissions will be lower than in 2005 from 60% to 65%.

Xie Zhenhua said, was trying to explain to the audience which, B2B Wholesale directory in the process of industrialization and urbanization in China, the gradual improvement in the quality of economic growth, China is a green and low-carbon development path, as long as we go on, will peak in 2030 or earlier time, realizing decarbonization in China's development goals.
