The report "Accelerating Actions for Greater Contributions: Outstanding Solutions for Green Energy Transition" was officially released at the Baku Olympic Stadium, showcasing six exemplary solutions from State Grid Corporation of China that advance low-carbon energy transformation. These initiatives span zero-carbon industrial park development, low-carbon transition for SMEs, off-grid power supply solutions, green energy-powered rural vitalization, electrification of public transport and eco-friendly grid infrastructure.
The report highlights how power companies are driving systemic change toward green and low-carbon transition through:
The six exemplary solutions are as follows:
· Building a Near-Zero Carbon Industrial Park to Help Enterprises Save Energy and Reduce Carbon Emissions( State Grid Changzhou Power Supply Company )
· Accelerating the Shift towards Electrified and Eco-friendly Vehicles in the Public Transport System( State Grid Ningbo Power Supply Company )
· Empowering Small and Medium-Sized Industrial Parks in Suburban Towns to Accelerate Low-Carbon Transition( State Grid Hubei Electric Power Co., Ltd. Wuhan Dongxihu DistrictPower Supply Company )
· Securing Greener and Reliable Power Supply Through the New"islanded Power supply" Model( State Grid Hubei Electric Power Co., Ltd. Wuhan Dongxihu DistrictPower Supply Company )
· "Green Power Town" Offering New ldeas for Rural Revitalization( State Grid Yinchuan Power Supply Company )
· Building Green, Eco-friendly Microgrids to solve Power supply Problems in "High-altitude,Island,Border and Unpopulated" Areas( State Grid Taizhou Power Supply Company )
The solutions demonstrate China's commitment to practical, scalable climate action as the power sector accounts for 42% of national emission reductions. Their implementation has already avoided 18 million tons of CO2 annually – equivalent to planting 1.2 billion trees.
These initiatives mainly source from GoldenKey SDG Solutions campaign and GoldenKey SGCC Special campaign. Launched in 2020, GoldenKey SDG Solutions campaign has selected 580 SDG solutions from 510 enterprises, gradually building up the practical picture and case database of China-based enterprises' contributions to the SDGs, and it thus selected as a SDG Good Practice by the United Nations (#SDGAction33560). Over the three years, GoldenKey SGCC Special campaign also has presented 200 power-sector solutions.Currently, global climate governance has entered a critical stage. China shares these practical experiences through international platforms such as the COP 29, which is not only a positive contribution to global sustainable development but also demonstrates the mission and responsibility of a responsible major country.
