Recently，The State Council issued the "2024-2025 Energy Saving and Carbon Reduction Action Plan" (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan")。
"Action Plan" proposed，2024，Energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP were reduced by 2.About 5%、3.About 9%，The added value energy consumption of industrial units above designated size is reduced by 3.About 5%，The proportion of non-fossil energy consumption reaches 18.About 9%，Energy-saving and carbon-reduction transformation in key areas and industries has resulted in energy savings of approximately 50 million tons of standard coal、Reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 1.300 million tons。2025，Non-fossil energy consumption accounts for about 20%，Energy-saving and carbon-reduction transformation in key areas and industries has resulted in energy savings of approximately 50 million tons of standard coal、Reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 1.300 million tons。
In terms of power-related indicators，By 2025，The proportion of non-fossil energy power generation in the country has reached about 39%，National Pumped Hydropower Storage、New energy storage installed capacity exceeds 62 million kilowatts respectively、40 million kilowatts，The demand response capacity of each region should generally reach 3%-5% of the maximum electricity load，The demand response capability of areas where the peak-to-trough difference rate of the annual maximum electricity load exceeds 40% should reach more than 5% of the maximum electricity load，The utilization rate of new energy in areas with better resource conditions can be reduced to 90%。
In terms of key tasks of the "Action Plan"，Deployed alternative actions to reduce fossil energy consumption，Action to increase non-fossil energy consumption，Steel Industry、Petrochemical and chemical industry、Nonferrous metal industry、Building materials industry、Building、Transportation、Public Institution、27 tasks in 10 aspects including energy conservation and carbon reduction actions for energy-using products and equipment；In terms of management mechanism，Proposed to strengthen energy conservation and carbon reduction target responsibilities and evaluation assessment、Strict energy conservation review and environmental assessment approval of fixed asset investment projects、Strengthen energy conservation and carbon reduction management of key energy consuming units、Intensify energy conservation supervision、Five tasks including strengthening statistical accounting of energy consumption and carbon emissions；In terms of support，Clear the system standards、Price Policy、Financial support、Technological leadership、Market-oriented mechanism、6 measures including national action。
