Parallel Forum 1: Energy Transition and International Cooperation on New Energy Power

In recent years, as the international community paid more attention to issues of energy resource security, ecological environment protection and climate change, governments around the world have reached consensus and taken actions on accelerating the development and utilization of new energy resources represented by wind power and solar energy, thus the global new energy industry has shown a high-speed development trend. It is expected that by 2050, new energy sources, mainly wind power and solar energy, will contribute to 40% of the total power generation. In this context, international cooperation in the following fields including energy transition, institutional mechanisms, business models and technological innovation, should be vigorously carried out in the new energy industry, so as to further promote quality and sustainable development of the global new energy industry.
