About us

The global energy transition is making progress in a complex environment, marked by higher energy efficiency and more installed capacity of renewables. However, challenges remain on the path to reaching the goals of the Paris Agreement. As a major energy producer and consumer, China plays a pivotal role in accelerating this transition. With steady progress towards the "Dual Carbon" goal, China has been revising its medium- and long-term energy transition strategy, shifting from dual-control of total energy consumption and intensity to dual-control of total carbon emissions and carbon intensity. 

WRI China has worked closely with domestic and international think tanks, industry associations, enterprises, and other key stakeholders, with an aim to accelerate the replacement of fossil energy with clean energy on the supply side, raise green energy awareness in key sectors, enterprises, and industrial parks on the demand side, while exploring cost-effective paths for green energy consumption. Furthermore, we endeavor to encourage more international dialogue and cooperation, support the application of renewables in regions such as Africa and Southeast Asia, and bolster the resilience of the global renewable energy value chain with higher efficiency.

    Energy Transition

    By enhancing market mechanisms, we support the adoption of low-carbon technologies—such as renewable and energy storage—across industrial parks, communities, and rural areas, increasing the share of zero-carbon in final energy consumption.
