Kick-Off Meeting for the Jiangxi Province Strategic Cooperation Project on Green and Low-Carbon Development under the 'Dual-Carbon' Goals
On March 20, the Jiangxi Carbon Neutral Research Center launched the strategic cooperation project for green and low-carbon development in Jiangxi Province, aligning with the 'dual-carbon' goals. The event took place in Nanchang, with prominent figures such as leaders from the Climate Division of the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment and iGDP delivering keynote speeches. Over 10 researchers from various key institutions, including the Provincial Development and Reform Commission (Jiangxi Research Academy of Ecology Civilization), Green Development Division of the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, Provincial Ecological Meteorological Center, and academic representatives from Nanchang University and Jiangxi Normal University, among others, shared their insights. More than 20 experts from over 10 organizations and universities with a focus on dual-carbon initiatives were in attendance.
Kickoff Meeting of the Guangdong Working Group on Scientific Decision-making and Practice in Response to Climate Change
On January 11, 2024, the Guangdong Working Group on Scientific Decision-making and Practice in Response to Climate Change was officially established in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province. The meeting was jointly hosted by the Guangdong Low-Carbon Development Promotion Association and iGDP. The working group is comprised of over ten experts from sectors including energy, electricity, building construction, green finance, carbon footprint analysis, and energy storage. The Association presented the 2024 work plan for the group, which includes two to four thematic workshops and two in-depth training sessions. The experts recommended themes for future workshops, such as pathways to carbon neutrality, enhancing power system flexibility, deep industrial decarbonization, controlling greenhouse gas emissions in refrigeration systems, assessing abatement costs and market mechanisms for cutting-edge technologies, and the development of local carbon trading platforms.
Practical Research in Maanshan, Huainan, and Chuzhou in Anhui Province
From October 10-12, 2023, the iGDP research team visited Ma'anshan City, Huainan City, and Chuzhou City to conduct comprehensive research. The focus was on evaluating climate change policy implementation, developing GHG inventories, and assessing the current energy structure. The team also examined future energy supply plans, and the energy efficiency levels in key sectors—industry, transportation, and buildings—as well as the cities' plans for energy-saving retrofits.
Low-Carbon Transition Research on Coal Power and High-Energy Consumption Enterprises in Anhui Province
On July 3-4, members of the iGDP project team conducted a field research trip to Huainan and Wuhu cities in Anhui Province, focusing on the low-carbon transition of coal power plants and high-energy consumption industries, including coal-fired power plants, chemical plants, cement factories, and new energy vehicle industrial parks. Notably, the Chery Automobile Industrial Park is actively developing a zero-carbon park, aiming to achieve energy self-sufficiency through technologies such as photovoltaics, energy storage, and virtual power plants.
