The strategic cooperation will aim to promote the implementation of the Paris Agreement and advance green, low carbon, and high-quality development in one of China’s most developed and energy consuming provinces. The two parties plan to focus on research on a decarbonized development strategy for the province, pollution and carbon reductions in provincial industrial parks, decarbonization of energy systems in key industrial parks, and zero carbon development and demonstration. They also plan to summarize the province’s green and low carbon development achievements and strengthen international communications in this regard.
