It reviews global renewable deployment trends, the gap between NDC targets and the tripling target, and China&#039;s policy framework supporting renewable expansion (Renewable Energy Law, consumption responsibility quotas, green certificate trading, power market reform). The analysis presents provincial-level renewable capacity data and targets, identifies provinces that have significantly outperformed or underperformed relative to goals, and reviews modeling projections for 2030 capacity. It finds that China achieved its 2030 wind and solar target six years ahead of schedule but that provincial targets vary widely, with significant upside potential in power-demanding coastal provinces. It recommends accelerated power system flexibility improvements, market mechanism enhancements, and coordinated provincial target-setting.<\/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\">Li, Xindi.

systems in China&#039;s steel industry, reviewing the policy drivers behind decarbonization and analyzing the technological trajectory across near-, medium-, and long-term horizons (2025\u20132060). It surveys and compares the applicability, economics, and emissions-reduction potential of key technologies\u2014including waste heat recovery, system efficiency improvements, and hydrogen-based metallurgy\u2014through in-depth case studies (HBIS Group&#039;s hydrogen metallurgy, Shougang Jingtang&#039;s process interface optimization, and Sinosteel\/CISP&#039;s hydrogen-based smelting reduction, among others). It further identifies the practical barriers to scaling these technologies (high green hydrogen costs, renewable energy intermittency, stranded-asset risk, and weak cross-sector coordination mechanisms), and proposes policy recommendations to accelerate the sector&#039;s shift toward integration with renewable energy systems.<\/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\">AUG 2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1085\" src=\"https:\/\/www.igdp.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.11.52-PM-768x1085.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.igdp.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.11.52-PM-768x1085.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.igdp.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.11.52-PM-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/www.igdp.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.11.52-PM-725x1024.jpg 725w, https:\/\/www.igdp.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.11.52-PM-1087x1536.jpg 1087w, https:\/\/www.igdp.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.11.52-PM.jpg 1128w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/energy\/can-chinas-zero-carbon-industrial-parks-go-global\/\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">Can China\u2019s zero-carbon industrial parks go global?<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">In March 2026, China\u2019s 15th Five Year Plan set a target to build \u201caround 100 national level zero-carbon industrial parks\u201d \u2013 zones for industrial production with net-zero or close to zero carbon emissions.
