In 2024, the China Power Market is navigating significant reforms aimed at balancing energy security with ambitious carbon reduction goals. Key developments include expanding the carbon trading system, promoting renewable energy through green power purchase agreements, and modernising the grid to better integrate renewables. This year has seen accelerated growth in solar, wind, and hydrogen sectors, though coal remains essential for energy security, especially during peak demand. For foreign-invested enterprises, increasing access to green power options and improved regulatory transparency provide new opportunities to align operations with global sustainability standards, despite ongoing regional and regulatory complexities.
