It explains why these gases\u2014though a small share of total emissions\u2014are highly potent contributors to global warming, and highlights China&#039;s significant role in their production and use, particularly in refrigeration, power, and aluminum sectors. The paper reviews existing policies and international commitments like the Kigali Amendment, while also exploring technological pathways and challenges in developing alternatives, improving recycling, and cutting emissions from key industries. It concludes that stronger domestic regulations and China&#039;s upcoming climate pledges offer a critical opportunity to accelerate F-Gas reductions in support of its carbon neutrality goals.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"span2\">Suggested citation:<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"span3\">Ma, Yue.

Under an ambitious Deep Decarbonization Scenario, China&#039;s N\u2082O emissions could fall by 73% by 2050 (or 51% under a more moderate New Policies Scenario), with the industrial sector delivering the largest share of reductions. Under the new policies scenario, industry could cut N\u2082O emissions by about 177 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO\u2082e) by 2035 \u2014 76% of China&#039;s total \u2014 rising to roughly 211 million tonnes by 2050. To unlock this potential, the report sets out three priority pathways: strengthen capacity and technological innovation for industrial N\u2082O mitigation; align product carbon footprints with green supply chains to turn mitigation into industrial competitiveness; and integrate N\u2082O mitigation into China&#039;s coordinated framework for reducing pollution and carbon emissions.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Report<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">SEP 2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div
