China Carbon Neutral releases action plan for large-scale green energy

The plan covers 100 GW of photovoltaic power, 100 GW of wind power and 100 GWh of storage.

China Carbon Neutral Development Group Limited has launched the “Guarding the Earth” green action plan, which consists of two action plans aiming to boost greenery and sustainable energy sources.

One of the plans is the “Million Green Energy” project, which involves building 100 GW of photovoltaic power generation facilities, 100 GW of wind power generation facilities and 100 GWh of energy storage facilities worldwide.

The “Million Green Energy” project aims to invite interested parties to participate in instituting carbon-neutral global governance, strategic positioning of “large platform empowerment, small front-end realisation, and realisation of carbon neutral business replication and cracking”.
