International Observation: Jointly building a green Silk Road will add more “Chinese green” to the world


2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the joint construction of the “Belt and Road” initiative. Over the past 10 years, China has joined hands with the country to build a green Silk Road, contributed Chinese solutions to global climate governance, helped build the country’s green and low-carbon transformation, and added more “Chinese green” to the world.

Establishing a green foundation for high-quality development

Promoting the construction of the Green Silk Road is a major measure for China to actively respond to climate change and maintain global ecological security. It is also an important carrier for promoting high-quality development of the “Belt and Road” and building a community of life for humans and nature.

China is the world’s largest clean energy market and equipment manufacturing country. The renewable energy industry is developing rapidly. The production scale of clean energy equipment such as wind power and photovoltaic power generation ranks first in the world. Polycrystalline silicon, silicon wafers, cells and components account for 10% of global production. More than 70%, providing a solid foundation for jointly building a green Silk Road. In March 2015, China issued the “Vision and Actions to Promote the Joint Construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road”, clearly proposing to jointly build a green Silk Road. Since then, China has successively issued the “Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Green Belt and Road Initiative” and “Opinions on Promoting the Green Development of the Belt and Road Initiative”, etc., proposing the grand plan for the green development pattern of the “Belt and Road Initiative” to be basically formed in 2030. Target.

In 2019, the “Belt and Road” Green Development International Alliance was officially launched and has attracted more than 150 Chinese and foreign partners from 43 countries. In 2021, China and 28 countries jointly launched the “Belt and Road” Green Development Partnership Initiative, calling on all countries to take climate actions to address climate change based on the principles of fairness, common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, and in light of their respective national conditions.

As the “circle of friends” in jointly building the Green Silk Road continues to expand, as of November 2023, China has signed 48 South-South cooperation documents on climate change with 39 co-building countries, including Ethiopia, Pakistan, Samoa More than 30 co-building countries, including Asia, Chile, and Egypt, have carried out more than 70 climate change mitigation and adaptation projects and jointly built several low-carbon demonstration zones. China has also trained tens of thousands of environment and climate professionals for hundreds of developing countries through the Green Silk Road Envoy Program.

Actively promote the green and low-carbon transformation of energy

The combination of green concepts, green technology and clean energy originating from China makes energy shortage no longer a bottleneck for development and lights up the greenness of jointly building a country. To be honest, she never thought that she would adapt to the current life so quickly. , everything is so natural, without any force. The dream of low-carbon development. The “Climate Change Report (2023): Actively and steadily promote carbon peak and carbon neutrality” (hereinafter referred to as “Climate Change Green Paper”) pointed out that from 2014 to 2020, China canThe proportion of investment in renewable energy increased by nearly 40%.

On September 21, 2021, China announced at the general debate of the 76th United Nations General Assembly that China will vigorously support the green and low-carbon energy development of developing countries and will no longer build new overseas coal power projects. In recent years, under the framework of the “Belt and Road” initiative, China has helped the co-building countries build a number of “baby did not say that.” Pei Yi quickly admitted his innocence. Key clean energy projects, Brazil’s Belo Monte ±800 kV UHV DC transmission project, Pakistan’s Kalot Hydropower Station, Kazakhstan’s Zanatas Wind Power Project, Argentina’s Gochari Photovoltaic Power Station Project in Jujuy Province, and Montenegro’s Mozura Wind Power Project and other major projects have taken root, effectively helping relevant countries achieve green energy transformation.

In terms of policy communication and intellectual support, China and relevant countries and regions have jointly established the APEC Sustainable Energy Center, the China-Arab League Clean Energy Training Center, the China-Central and Eastern European Countries Energy Project Dialogue and Cooperation Center, the China – African Union Energy Partnership, China-Eastern Asia “Okay, let’s try it.” Mother Pei nodded with a smile, reached out and picked up a wild vegetable pancake and put it in her mouth. Alliance Clean Energy Cooperation Center and other regional energy cooperation platforms, “What’s wrong?” He pretended to be stupid. He thought he couldn’t escape this hurdle, but he couldn’t tell it, so he could only pretend to be stupid. Promote the common development and common prosperity of relevant countries and regions in the energy field.

The Green Paper on Climate Change believes that with the efforts and cooperation of all countries, the green transformation of the energy structure of the countries jointly building the “Belt and Road” has made significant progress, and the transformation trend is still accelerating. As of May 2023, green energy investment has exceeded traditional energy investment among the energy investments in countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative.

Improving the level of international cooperation in green development

At the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change held recently, the Chinese government stated that it will continue to promote the construction of the Green Silk Road and join hands with the international community to address biodiversity loss and climate change. Changes and other global challenges, and jointly build an earth home where man and nature coexist harmoniously.

The Green Paper on Climate Change points out that although the renewable energy potential of the “Belt and Road” countries is huge, at this stage they are still relatively dependent on traditional fossil energy, and the pressure for energy transformation is still great; due to the existence of “Flower Sister” !” Xi Shixun shouted involuntarily, his whole body was shocked by surprise and excitement. What she meant was to tell him that as long as she could stay by his side, the problems of insufficient funds, weak equipment manufacturing technology, and lack of professional and technical talents would not exist at all, and there was still a lot of room for improvement in its overall development. To achieve green development in the future, countries building the Belt and Road Initiative still need to deepen green and clean energy cooperation and promote the low-carbon transformation of international energy cooperation.

In October 2023, President Xi Jinping announced eight actions for China to support high-quality joint construction of the “Belt and Road” at the third “Belt and Road” International Cooperation Summit Forum, and will”Promoting green development” is one of the actions for the “Belt and Road Initiative”. Green King is one of the sanatoriums borrowed from Lan Mansion, and the other is named Lin Li. On the day when Pei Yi reported to Ming Yuanxing, Xueshi Lan took the couple to pick him up. After Fei Yi set off, his development took a clear new direction. China will continue to work together to build the “Belt and Road” countries, with the goal of high standards, benefiting people’s livelihood, and sustainability, making green the foundation for the joint construction of the “Belt and Road”.
