The 24th Conference on the Electric Power Supply Industry kicked off on October 20th in Xiamen, centering around the theme "Green, Low-Carbon: Lighting Up Our Future." This biennial conference is a powerhouse event in the Asia-Pacific region, setting the stage for discussions on global energy and electricity development trends. An integral part of this conference was the themed promotion event "Stride Forward with Xiamen, Towards a City of Innovation for the New Energy Industry," held on the evening of October 20th. During the conference, 18 major new energy projects were signed on the dotted line, totaling an investment of 22.8 billion yuan. New energy is not just crucial for revolutionizing energy sources and meeting "dual carbon" goals; it's also a vital cog in Xiamen's "4+4+6" modern industrial blueprint. The city's new energy sector has already surpassed 100 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 35.7% from January to September 2023, making it the largest contributor to Xiamen's industrial economy. Moving forward, Xiamen is set to go full throttle in becoming a City of Innovation for the New Energy Industry, contributing its "Xiamen Power" to meet the "dual carbon" objectives.
