We will accelerate the transformation of old and new growth drivers into more stable energy sources

"The acceleration of the global low-carbon development process is a high probability event, and China should firmly grasp the initiative in tackling climate change and make early plans to achieve the two-carbon goal." Wu Yin, academic advisor of China Energy Research Society and former deputy Director of the National Energy Administration, said at the "Carbon Neutral Summit Forum" held recently that energy conservation is the "first clean and zero-carbon energy", the primary proposition of energy transformation, a key measure that is realistic and feasible, with less investment and quick effect, and an important starting point to grasp the initiative in coping with climate change. Drastic measures must be taken to ensure energy conservation.

On October 1 this year, the world's first "carbon tariff", the EU carbon Border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), began trial operation, carbon trading rules to carbon certification, carbon emission quotas, carbon trading and other components have become new requirements for enterprises to enter the international market and integrate into the global green low-carbon industrial chain.

In this regard, Du D «½, Director of low-carbon transition at the Energy Foundation, believes that at this stage, the collection of carbon tariffs mainly involves steel, cement, aluminum, fertilizer, electricity and hydrogen six With the gradual tightening of the EU's carbon market policy, more industries will be involved. The national carbon market is in urgent need of expansion and expansion, and top-level design should also be strengthened to clarify policy expectations and realization paths. The carbon footprint of various industries is essentially the low-carbon transformation of the overall social economy. While maintaining economic growth, we should promote the implementation of carbon neutrality targets in an orderly and steady manner, and explore new ways to "green the sea".

Zhou Yuan, global partner and director of Boston Consulting Group (BCG), said that although China's new energy industry is huge, there are still some bottlenecks that cannot be ignored, such as the high cost of hydrogen and lithium batteries, the unstable supply of new energy power, the research quality of key technologies such as energy storage and energy Internet, and the shelving cost of traditional energy. We should strengthen international cooperation, actively learn from the successful experience of developed countries, and at the same time build a platform for smes, remove barriers, encourage innovation, and strengthen the systematic construction of green finance.

Wu Yin believes that there is a long gap between the simple, moderate, green and low-carbon production mode and residents' lifestyle at this stage. We should firmly grasp the initiative in responding to climate change, tap the potential for energy conservation, and on the basis of continuing to focus on structural and technological energy conservation, refine management and strengthen cultural energy conservation. First of all, clear energy conservation goals, adhere to the bottom line thinking, accelerate the development of renewable energy, as soon as possible to achieve all the increase in energy consumption met by renewable energy; Secondly, realize the whole process of energy management to tap the potential of the demand side, and change "source with load" to "source with load interaction"; Again, refine the management of energy conservation, formulate and timely update the energy efficiency leader indicators for public facilities and key energy-consuming equipment; Finally, strengthen the realization of cultural energy conservation, cultivate the energy conservation culture of the Chinese nation, make energy conservation become people's self-cultivation from the heart and conscious behavior without reminding, firmly grasp the initiative to deal with climate change, and ensure that the "double carbon" goal is achieved in advance.
