Session 5: Advanced thermal energy storage towards carbon neutrality

Summary:
Global warming is a worldwide challenge caused by massive energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon neutrality is widely regarded as an effective pathway to address global warming towards a sustainable future. Many countries and regions have made ambitious goals for carbon neutrality, with many of them targeting the years around 2050–2060. As the largest developing country, China is determined to achieve carbon peaking by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060.
