On January 18, an energy-saving project was launched in the Sino-German (Changzhou) Innovation Industry Park (SGIP) in the Jintan district. The project aims to develop a demonstration park in urban energy conservation - the first of its kind in China.

It comes at a time when China aims to reach carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutral by 2060. The project provides an opportunity for Jintan to learn from Germany’s experience in energy conservation. In collaboration with German companies, the SGIP can learn about their technical standard, business model, and operation model in the energy field.

The project will yield a comprehensive energy plan to be carried out by the Jintan Economic Development Zone.
