The "Implementation Plan for the Solicitation and Promotion of National Key Low-carbon Technologies" was issued, and five categories of carbon-reduction technologies were the focus of the solicitation and promotion

Recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and other six departments jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for the Solicitation and Promotion of National Key Low-carbon Technologies" (hereinafter referred to as the "Implementation Plan").

The "Implementation Plan" puts forward phased target requirements for the collection and promotion of low-carbon technologies in 2025 and 2030. Focusing on the goal and vision of achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality, we will systematically promote the collection, selection, publicity and promotion of advanced and applicable low-carbon technologies. Focus on key areas such as energy, industry, construction, and transportation, and focus on key links such as source management, emission monitoring, carbon storage and sequestration, and form a low-carbon technology promotion model characterized by multi-batch release, dynamic management, and normalized promotion.

According to the Implementation Plan, by 2025, through the release of the fifth batch of the Catalogue of Low-Carbon Technologies for Key Promotion by the State, a number of advanced and applicable low-carbon technologies with significant carbon reduction efficiency will be promoted, advanced experience and practices conducive to the connection between supply and demand of low-carbon technologies will be summarized, replicable/scalable technology transformation demonstration cases will be refined, and scientific and effective low-carbon technology transformation models and promotion paths will be explored.

By 2030, through the follow-up batch of the "National Key Promotion of Low-Carbon Technology Catalogue", a systematic and panoramic low-carbon technology map will be gradually formed, the path of carbon reduction, pollution reduction, green expansion, and growth synergy technology will be clearer, the relevant support policies and management mechanisms will be more sound, and the advantages of low-carbon technology and industry will be gradually enhanced, so as to provide strong support for achieving the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality and building a beautiful China.

According to the relevant responsible comrades of the Department of Climate Change of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the latest "Implementation Plan" attaches more importance to the promotion and application of low-carbon technologies after the collection and release, and deploys a series of key tasks around strengthening the promotion and application of low-carbon technologies and management services.

The first is to clarify the responsibilities of ecological and environmental departments at all levels in the promotion of low-carbon technologies, strengthen the coordination of departmental and local work, and explore the implementation of a multi-party linkage mechanism for the promotion of low-carbon technologies. Ecological and environmental departments at all levels are required to actively carry out low-carbon technology publicity and display activities, and timely summarize and publicize effective models and advanced experience in the promotion of low-carbon technologies.

Second, based on the market demand of enterprises and enterprises, highlight the main position of enterprises in technological innovation and application, and highlight the leading role of the market in technology promotion and achievement transformation. Encourage low-carbon technologies to enter the park, explore the two-way interaction between "enterprises and parks" and the transformation and application mode of low-carbon technology, promote the connection between the supply and demand of low-carbon technology, and expand the application scenarios of low-carbon technology promotion.

The third is to strengthen policy coordination and support guarantees, improve the management service mechanism, and strengthen the management of technical information and the tracking and feedback of promotion effects. Carry out extensive publicity and promotion at home and abroad, find an outlet and a path for the transformation and application of low-carbon technology achievements, carry out application demonstrations according to local conditions, and do a good job in the "second half of the article" for the promotion and application of low-carbon technologies.

The "Implementation Plan" emphasizes that the carbon reduction potential and carbon reduction effect of technology are targeted and oriented, and according to the advancement and maturity of technology, select and promote demonstration technologies with carbon reduction potential, representing the direction of scientific and technological innovation, and promotion technologies with significant carbon reduction effects and suitable for large-scale application, mainly including five key directions.

The first is the green and low-carbon transformation of energy. It mainly includes renewable energy development and application technology, advanced energy storage technology, energy Internet technology, hydrogen energy development and utilization technology, etc.

The second is carbon reduction in key areas. It mainly includes carbon reduction technologies in the industrial field, carbon reduction technologies in the construction field, and carbon reduction technologies in the transportation field.

The third is carbon storage and carbon sequestration. It mainly includes CCUS technology and ecological sink enhancement and monitoring technology.

The fourth is digital intelligence empowerment. It mainly includes digital empowerment efficiency improvement technology, greenhouse gas emission intelligent management technology, data center carbon reduction technology, etc.

The fifth is non-CO2 emission reduction. It mainly includes methane emission reduction technologies, hydrofluorocarbon emission reduction technologies, nitrous oxide emission reduction technologies and other non-carbon dioxide greenhouse gas emission reduction technologies.

At the same time, the fifth batch of "national key promotion of low-carbon technology catalogue" technology recommendation and collection work was launched simultaneously, ecological and environmental departments at all levels can work with the relevant departments in the region to do a good job in technology recommendation and declaration, the low-carbon technology of central enterprises by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council is responsible for recommending. The Implementation Plan encourages local governments and financial institutions to use the Catalogue of Low-Carbon Technologies Promoted by the State as a reference for the implementation of various support policies.
