Table 3.3
Analysis on the reality of promoting earlier emission peak in some regions, Cao et al. (2019)
Upgrade industrial structure
Optimize energy mix
Building sector
Transportation sector
Beijing
Tightly control the number of
existing and new enterprises;
prioritize the tertiary industry
Promote clean and low
carbonization of four major
gas-fired CHP(combined heat and
power) centers
Enhance application and
development of local renewable
energy sources; accelerate the
construction of external green
power channels
Strictly control the size of
buildings; strengthen
energy-saving renovation of
existing buildings; increase efforts
to replace coal with gas or
electricity
Increase the share of clean energy
vehicles
Control the number of motor
vehicles
Develop smart traffic
technologies, etc.
Shanghai
Vigorously develop advanced
manufacturing and modern
service industries
Strictly control the size and
energy consumption of heavy
and chemical industry
Intensify efforts to adjust
backward production capacity
Aggressively reduce total coal
consumption; increase the
proportion of low-carbon energy
sources such as natural gas
Actively promote prefabricated
building
Facilitate technical applications of
municipal infrastructure
Increase the share of green
mobility
Promote low carbonization of air
and water transportation
Guangdong Focus on curbing industrial
emissions
Phase out outdated capacity in
energy-intensive industries and
strictly control new capacity
Rein in energy-intensive sectors
as a percentage of the secondary
industry
Spur low carbonization of export
structure
Strictly rein in increase of coal
consumption
Enhance technologies of coal-fired
power plants, shut down more
existing coal-fired units, and
tightly control new such facilities
(Implementation Plan of Energy
Structure Adjustment during the
13th Five-Year Plan period of
Guangdong Province.)
Advance energy-saving renovation
of existing buildings
Strengthen energy conservation
efficiency in new buildings
Promote green building
Facilitate the development of a
modern comprehensive
transportation system
Accelerate the development of
low-carbon railway and waterway,
etc.
Improve urban transport system
with public transport first
encourage the use of
energy-saving, clean energy and
new energy transport
