BOAO, Hainan, March 18 (Xinhua) -- A demonstration zone focusing on almost zero emissions began operations on Monday in Boao, south China's Hainan Province.
A launching ceremony was held in Boao's Dongyu Island for the "Boao Nearly Zero Carbon Demonstration Zone," a project jointly built by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Hainan provincial government.
By incorporating emission reduction technologies and taking various innovative practices and measures, the demonstration zone is able to achieve balance between new energy power generation and consumption.
The project aims to showcase China's green and low-carbon development concepts, technologies and practices to the world.
The Boao Forum for Asia (BFA) Annual Conference 2024 will be held from March 26 to 29 in Boao, focusing on how the international community can work together to deal with common challenges and shoulder their responsibilities.
