China has pledged to bring its carbon dioxide emissions to a peak by 2030 and to net zero by 2060. Under the Paris climate agreement, Beijing has also committed to a series of stepping-stone targets. This includes ensuring that by 2025, 20 percent of its energy comes from alternatives to fossil fuels. However, as per a report by the Finland-based centre for energy and Clean Air Research, all of these targets are severely off-track after 2023.
