Unlocking New Opportunities for Carbon Neutrality in China’s Building Sector
The report argues that achieving a net-zero building sector is critical for China's carbon neutrality, as the sector accounted for 32 percent of the country's CO2 emissions in 2022. It outlines four primary areas for decarbonization: operational emissions, embodied carbon, new growth models through technology and market mechanisms, and equity and inclusion in affordable and rural housing. The document emphasizes that the next 5–10 years are critical for accelerating the adoption of carbon-neutral technologies to decouple emissions from the continued growth of building floor space and energy demand.
