Comprehensive use of "three lines and one order" and other means to strictly control the construction of high energy-consuming and high-emission projects, and curb the old kinetic energy of high carbon and high emissions.
Develop green finance, cultivate green and low-carbon technologies and industries, and stimulate new momentum for green and low-carbon.
It is reported that in the near future, in accordance with relevant requirements, the provincial ecological and environmental authorities have basically completed the pre-allocation of allowances through the national carbon emission rights registration system.
