Attention has been paid to the air quality and climate benefit strategy of China's "power transmission from west to east" strategy.
In response to China's strategy of "power transmission from west to east", Environmental Research KuaiBao (Environmental Research Letters) published an article entitled "Air quality and Climate benefits of long-distance Transmission in China" (Air Quality and Climate Benefits of Long-Distance Electricity Transmission in China) on June 13, 2017, studying the deployment strategies to solve the two major problems of air pollution and carbon emissions. It is proposed that long-distance transmission planning with the introduction of renewable energy is very important to maximize air quality and global climate benefits. This paper collates the core viewpoints of this study for reference.

Carbon pricing: the general trend of future climate action
one? Countries and regions are making progress So far, more than 40 countries and 24 areas under national jurisdiction have implemented or plan to implement carbon pricing. These carbon pricing schemes cover 7 Gt CO2e of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for about 13 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions each year. About 2x3 have implemented a cap-and-trade scheme for emissions, and about 1x3 have implemented a carbon tax on emissions; about 1Accord 4's jurisdiction has implemented cap-and-trade schemes and carbon taxes for carbon pricing.
