The new policy seeks to translate national emissions-reduction goals into specific actions for enterprises, and covers green design, manufacturing and logistics, amongst other aspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The policy was issued shortly after the release of the Central Committee of the Communist Party\u2019s\u00a0official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.cn\/zhengce\/202510\/content_7046050.htm\">recommendations<\/a> for the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), which suggests that China implement a \u201cdual control system\u201d to manage total carbon emissions and carbon intensity.\u00a0It also comes months after Premier Li Qiang <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.cn\/yaowen\/liebiao\/202509\/content_7042042.htm\">pledged<\/a> that China would help bridge the world\u2019s \u201cgreen gap\u201d by providing a \u201cstable and high-quality supply\u201d of new energy products. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several senior officials spoke at a State Council <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.cn\/zccfh\/2025zccfh\/20251031\/wzsl\/202510\/content_7046563.htm\">press briefing<\/a> on the policy. Wang Peng, Director-General of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology\u2019s Department of Energy Conservation and Comprehensive Utilization, told reporters that the government will accelerate green upgrades of the entire industrial chain, from product design and manufacturing, to recycling and reuse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that by 2030, the share of monetary output value from national green factories \u2013 certified by the ministry as <a href=\"http:\/\/english.anhuinews.com\/newscenter\/headline\/202412\/t20241224_8101628.html\">demonstrating<\/a> high energy efficiency, waste resource utilisation and low-carbon energy use \u2013 is expected to rise to 40% nationwide, up from the \u201cmore than 20%\u201d as of end-2024. Wang said the ministry will implement a \u201cgreen industrial park enhancement plan\u201d to promote the green transformation of high-tech zones and industrial parks, as well as build zero-carbon parks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Green finance tools are another major focus of the policy. Wang Xin, Director-General of the Research Bureau at the People\u2019s Bank of China, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yicai.com\/news\/102889988.html\">said<\/a> at the briefing that the country will support the development of domestic green financial products as well as promote the issuance of green financial instruments in global markets. Wang added that the aim is to offer global investors more access to Chinese green assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new policy<strong> <\/strong>is likely to be followed with more detailed implementation plans from different ministries and local governments, regarding aspects such as performance targets for green products and industrial zones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read Dialogue Earth\u2019s <\/em><a
