China to Roll Out Provincial Renewables Targets

China is poised to roll out specific targets for provinces’ green energy use, as the country’s ambitious goal of peaking carbon emissions by 2030 looms.

All of China’s province-level regions, except Tibet, are to be given specific yearly targets for renewables’ share of their total power consumption for the years to 2030, according to an internal draft plan the National Energy Administration (NEA) sent to local energy authorities on Feb. 5.
