State utility gives helping hand in Xinjiang's green transition

To aid in China's dual goals of peaking carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060, the country's largest power utility is helping enterprises boost technological innovation, in a bid to bolster the green transition.

In the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, State Grid — a State-owned enterprise — has decided to strengthen cooperation with local governments, research institutions and related enterprises, jointly promoting technological innovation and industrial upgrades, thereby contributing greatly to its green transformation.

In the city of Kuitun, CN Green Electricity launched a 1.1 million kilowatt new energy project on Nov 10, 2023, a key initiative under Xinjiang's 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25), in order to help in the area's green transformation.
