Chinese delegations gathered at a United Nations (UN) climate conference to showcase China's recent efforts and achievements in energy conservation and emission reduction, gaining widespread attention and recognition from global attendees.
During the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) in Baku, Azerbaijan, delegations from China's major cities like Beijing, Tianjin, Chongqing, and Shenzhen presented their environmentally friendly solutions at the China Pavilion.
These solutions, supported by advanced technologies and innovative ideas, contributed to the transition to green and sustainable development.
A display of a virtual power plant, which is located in south China's Shenzhen, attracted a lot of attention. The Shenzhen Virtual Power Plant Management Center uses advanced internet technology to connect and manage various energy resources, such as charging stations, solar panels and energy storage devices that are spread out among end users.
Through re-deployment and optimization, the virtual power plant can provide stable clean electricity to the power grid. Because such a power plant without factories is inexpensive to build, it is effective in saving energy and reducing emissions.
"We have reached an internationally leading level in technology, and we are gaining more and more attention overseas. At the COP29, we also held technical exchanges with some EU countries like Spain and France," said Cheng Renli, general manager of the center.
A delegation from Beijing's Jiangshanfu Community presented their sustainable waste disposal solution at COP29. The community converts daily kitchen and garden waste into useful organic fertilizer, achieving both localized waste management and resource recycling.
"We also use special equipment to turn small branches and twigs in our community into soil cover, which we spread on bare soil in the community to improve its quality," said Qi Weiwei, director of the resident committee of Jiangshanfu Community.
The China Pavilion at COP29 has offered a glimpse into China's green development approach, with many international attendees recognizing the country's achievements in energy conservation and emission reduction.
"I was so impressed that China is leading the world in renewable energy, particularly the solar (power). I am sure that China will increase its technology transfer with poor countries and developing countries like Pakistan," said Aftab Alam Khan, CEO of Resilient Future International Pvt. Ltd.
"At the China Pavilion, there are many opportunities for learning and collaboration, enabling overseas companies like ours to participate in China's green development," said Zhang Wenbin, finance chief of BioGenesis, an Australia-based nutrition consulting company.
