SECTORS

Oil & Gas

The oil and gas sector are crucial to China's energy landscape, with natural gas key to the transition to cleaner energy. As China cuts coal use and emissions, natural gas offers a cleaner alternative for power and industry.

Hydrogen

Hydrogen is essential to China’s energy transition, crucial for decarbonizing industry, transport, and power generation. To reach carbon neutrality by 2060, China is investing significantly in hydrogen production, storage, and distribution.

Renewables

Renewable energy is central to China’s sustainable, low-carbon strategy. As a global leader in renewables, especially solar and wind, China has invested heavily in technology and infrastructure, driving rapid growth and capacity expansion.

Decarbonisation

China is progressing toward its dual carbon goals, peaking emissions by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2060, with decarbonization central to its energy strategy. As a global leader in renewable energy, China is heavily investing in clean technologies.

AI, Digitalisation & Technology

China is rapidly digitalising its energy sector, planning to invest $1.5 trillion in digital energy technologies in 2025. This includes AI, machine learning, and advanced systems to enhance efficiency, reduce emissions, and integrate renewables.

Nuclear

Nuclear energy supports China’s low-carbon strategy by providing stable power alongside renewables. The country is rapidly expanding its nuclear capacity to enhance energy security and reduce emissions.

Electrification

Electrification underpins China’s energy transition, improving efficiency and sustainability across sectors. Significant progress has been made in transport, heating, and industry, but challenges like grid capacity and infrastructure persist.

Mobility

Sustainable mobility is transforming China’s transport landscape, reducing emissions and creating cleaner, greener cities. Leading the shift, China is rapidly expanding electric vehicles (EVs), high-speed rail, and smart charging infrastructure.

Shipping & logistics

Shipping and logistics are vital to China’s economy but among the highest emitters. Innovation and strong policies are needed to drive innovation, deploy zero-emission technologies, and create a sustainable industry.
