5 Provinces And 8 Cities Were Allowed To Pilot Low Carbon City Construction

10, reporters learned from the national development and Reform Commission that China will first develop low-carbon industries, build low carbon cities, and promote Guangdong, Liaoning, Hubei, Shaanxi, Yunnan, 5 provinces, Tianjin, Chongqing, Shenzhen, Xiamen, Hangzhou, Hangzhou, Hangzhou, and 8 cities.

according to

According to the notice of the national development and Reform Commission on the pilot work of low carbon provinces and low carbon cities, the pilot provinces and pilot cities should integrate the work of tackling climate change into the "12th Five-Year plan" of the region, and study and formulate low-carbon development plans for pilot provinces and cities.

It is necessary to carry out investigation and study, clarify pilot ideas, give full play to the comprehensive guiding role of planning, and combine the work of adjusting industrial structure, optimizing energy structure, saving energy and increasing efficiency, increasing carbon sinks, and clearly putting forward the action targets, key tasks and specific measures for controlling greenhouse gas emissions in the region, reducing the intensity of carbon emission, and actively exploring the low-carbon green development mode.

In addition, the circular requires the pilot areas to play a synergistic role in tackling climate change, energy conservation, environmental protection, new energy development and ecological construction, and actively explore institutional mechanisms conducive to the development of energy saving and emission reduction and low-carbon industries, implement the responsibility system for controlling greenhouse gas emissions, explore effective government guidance and economic incentive policies, and study the use of market mechanisms to promote the implementation of greenhouse gas emission control targets.

The development and Reform Commission also requires the pilot areas to speed up low-carbon technology innovation, promote R & D, demonstration and industrialization of low carbon technologies in line with local industrial characteristics and development strategies, actively use low carbon technology to pform and upgrade traditional industries, accelerate the development of low-carbon buildings and low-carbon pportation, and cultivate energy saving.
