The "National Carbon Peak Pilot Construction Plan" was promulgated, and it is planned to select 100 cities and parks to carry out carbon peak pilots

The National Development and Reform Commission released the "National Carbon Peak Pilot Construction Plan" on the 6th. The plan is clear, and 100 typical representative cities and parks will be selected nationwide to carry out pilot construction of carbon peaking, focusing on breaking the bottlenecks and constraints faced by green and low-carbon development, exploring carbon peak paths for cities and parks with different resource endowments and development foundations, and providing operable, replicable and scalable experience and practices for the whole country.

The plan puts forward four working principles: adhering to active and prudent, adapting measures to local conditions, adhering to reform and innovation, and adhering to safe carbon reduction, as well as the main goals for 2025 and 2030. By 2025, the policy mechanism conducive to green and low-carbon development within the pilot scope will be basically established, a number of operable, replicable and scalable innovative measures and reform experience will be initially formed, and the carbon peak paths of cities and parks with different resource endowments, different development bases and different industrial structures will be basically clear. By 2030, key tasks, major projects and important reforms in pilot cities and parks will be completed as scheduled, and policy mechanisms conducive to green and low-carbon development will be fully established.

The plan deploys the pilot construction content in five aspects: determining the pilot tasks, implementing key projects, strengthening scientific and technological innovation, improving policy mechanisms, and carrying out national actions.

According to the relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Development and Reform Commission will take into account the total carbon emissions and growth trends in various regions, economic and social development and other factors, and carry out the first batch of carbon peak pilot construction in 15 provinces and regions.
