即使排放激增放缓，中国电力和钢铁企业仍不断进行煤炭投资

Despite a slowdown in emission growth in Q2 2021, China's power and steel sectors continued to announce significant new coal-based capacity in the first half of the year. The report highlights a contradiction between economic growth driven by construction and decarbonization goals, noting that zero-emission power only met 30% of electricity demand growth between H1 2019 and H1 2021. While government measures to control fiscal overspending and industrial output led to a slowdown in CO2 emission growth in the second quarter, the continued announcement of coal-based projects risks creating stranded assets and hindering the transition to low-carbon technologies.

• The power sector's transition to clean energy is lagging; between the first half of 2019 and the first half of 2021, zero-emission generation accounted for only 30% of the growth in electricity demand. To meet 2030 emission targets, this proportion must exceed 100% by 2030.
• The steel industry continues to rely on coal, with 35 million tonnes of new coal-based ironmaking capacity announced in H1 2021, exceeding the total capacity announced for the entire year of 2020. There has been no progress in increasing the share of electric arc furnace or direct reduced iron (DRI) steelmaking over the last decade.
• CO2 emission growth slowed in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter, reflecting the impact of government measures to control industrial output and tighten credit in the construction sector. Q2 emissions rose by approximately 2% compared to 2020 and 6% compared to 2019, whereas Q1 emissions were 9% higher than 2019 levels.
