The plan clearly stipulates that it is necessary to deeply promote the optimization and adjustment of industrial structure, deeply promote the low-carbon transformation of energy structure, and solidly promote the transformation and upgrading of urban functions. It is also proposed that by 2025, we will actively promote the transformation from dual control of energy consumption to dual control of total carbon emission and intensity, form a modern climate change governance system and energy-saving policy and measure system that basically adapt to the characteristics of mega cities, and significantly improve the city’s ability to adapt to climate change. The energy efficiency and carbon emission levels in key areas remained the national leader, and a solid step was taken in carbon neutrality, laying a foundation for actively addressing the challenges of climate change and achieving the goal of carbon neutrality.

The government actively promoted green buildings, built a total of 128 million square meters of green buildings, demonstrated and promoted 530000 square meters of ultra-low energy consumption buildings, steadily promoted the development of prefabricated buildings, and the total area of newly built prefabricated buildings exceeded 54 million square meters. We will vigorously develop low-carbon transportation. The operating mileage of rail transit has reached 726 kilometers, and the number of new energy vehicles has reached more than 400000. We will build a market-oriented green technology innovation system, promote more than 200 advanced and applicable energy-saving technologies and products, implement a new round of energy-saving and emission reduction policies to promote consumption, and continue to increase the market share of energy-saving household appliances. We completed a new round of afforestation and afforestation tasks of one million mu and the forest carbon sink improvement project. The forest coverage rate reached 44.6%, and the forest carbon sink reserves increased by about 2 million tons.

By 2025, we will actively promote the transformation from dual control of energy consumption to dual control of total carbon emission and intensity, and form a modern climate change governance system and energy-saving policy and measure system that are basically compatible with the characteristics of mega cities. The city’s ability to adapt to climate change will be significantly improved. The energy efficiency and carbon emission levels in key areas remained the national leader, and a solid step was taken in carbon neutrality, laying a foundation for actively addressing the challenges of climate change and achieving the goal of carbon neutrality.
