Promote Electric Vehicles

As the world is shifting to clean energy, China has taken various significant initiatives to create a green, clean and safe world. In recent years, China has maintained over 5 per cent of annual GDP growth rate, with 3 per cent of energy consumption growth. It is pursuing the world’s largest clean energy development programme, becoming the world's top producer of solar and wind power equipment. China has one-third of global wind power and one-fourth of global solar power capacity. This power generation mix has enabled it to markedly improve its air quality. In 2023, about 65 per cent of Chinese cities met the air quality criteria, an increase of 13 per cent from that figure in 2020. Beijing had always been hit by heavy smog but last year its air quality was the best in history.
