Energy system is slowly becoming greener

China wants to increase the share of non-fossil energy sources in total consumption by an average of one percent annually by 2030. This is intended to achieve the climate target of using 25 percent non-fossil energy sources by 2030. This was recently announced by the National Energy Commission. Non-fossil fuels, including wind, solar, nuclear and hydropower, covered 16.6 percent of China’s total energy demand in 2021, up from 15.9 percent in 2020.
