Clean Energy Industries

Developing clean energy industries can make a major contribution to changing the world's energy mix. It is also a primary task in China's drive to improve its energy structure, ensure energy security, and advance its eco-civilization.

Since the CPC's 18th National Congress in 2012, the central leadership has made clean energy a priority, and proposed the new energy security strategy, pointing the way for China's energy development in the new era, and opening a new path with Chinese features.

Guided by its new concept for development, China is boosting clean energy and building the world's largest clean energy system. Clean energy has played a key role in poverty alleviation and the fight against pollution. By the end of 2020, natural gas, hydropower, nuclear power, and wind power held a 24.3 percent share in the total consumption of energy, and the output and sales of new energy automobiles had ranked first in the world for the previous five years.

According to the 14th Five-year Plan, China will promote clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient use of energy, accelerate the growth of new energy and green industries, and thus expedite greener economic and social development in all respects.

清洁能源产业

发展清洁能源是世界能源格局变革的重要方向,也是中国改善能源结构、保障能源安全、推进生态文明建设的重要任务。中共十八大以来,以习近平同志为核心的中共中央高度重视清洁能源发展,创造性提出“四个革命、一个合作”能源安全新战略,为新时代能源发展指明了方向,开辟了中国特色能源发展新道路。

中国贯彻新发展理念,推动清洁能源产业发展,打好能源领域精准扶贫和污染防治攻坚战,建成了全球最大的清洁能源系统。截至2020年年底,天然气、水电、核电、风电等清洁能源占能源消费比重达 24.3%,新能源汽车产销量连续5年居世界首位。根据“十四五”规划《纲要》,中国将推动能源清洁低碳安全高效利用,加快新能源、绿色环保等产业发展,促进经济社会发展全面绿色转型。
