Guang'an in Sichuan Province, China, has recently unveiled its carbon peak implementation plan. Announced on February 7, 2024, the plan outlines a comprehensive strategy to reduce coal consumption and transition towards cleaner energy sources.

The initiative aims to control coal consumption growth strictly and rationally, enhance the peak-shaving capacity of coal power, and promote energy-saving transformations in the coal power industry. It also focuses on advancing the clean and efficient utilization of coal, encouraging key coal-consuming industries to reduce coal use and switch to clean energy sources.

The plan includes significant measures to reduce the use of scattered coal and ultimately prohibit open coal burning, marking a critical step in Guang'an's efforts to achieve its carbon peak goals and contribute to China's broader environmental objectives.
