Based on implemented policies, China"s GHG emissions are expected to increase to between 11,779 and 13,437 MtCO2e by 2030 (excl. forestry). This is not in line with an emission pathway compatible with the Paris Agreement. 1 China's NDC, with CO2 emissions peaking around 2030, is not consistent with the Paris Agreement's temperature limit but would lead to a warming of between 3°C and 4°C. 2 China shows strong progress on energy efficiency for buildings and renewable energy but generally sectoral policies still fall short of being consistent with the Paris Agreement, especially on coal. 3

China's coal consumption

increased again in 2017, after a three-year decline, bringing uncertainty over the country's future coal use.

China announced in 2017

the launch of an emissions trading scheme for its power sector, with a trial period from 2019.

China has exceeded its 2020

renewable electricity target of 105 GW installed capacity three years early. More than half of new global solar PV capacity in 2016 and 2017 was installed in China.

CHINA'S EXPOSURE TO CLIMATE IMPACTS

6 This indicator shows the extent to which human society and its supporting sectors are affected by the future changing climate conditions based on an approximately 2°C scenario. This sectoral exposure will be even higher given that the efforts depicted in current NDCs will lead to an approximately

3°C scenario.

China"s emissions more than tripled between 1990

and 2015, and per capita emissions are now above the G20 average. Since 2013 this trend has slowed down considerably and is expected to flatten towards 2030. The energy sector is by far the largest contributor to national emissions.

The largest driver for

overall GHG emissions are CO2 emissions from energy, which increased in China by 8% (2012-

2017), at a much slower

pace than in previous years. Power generation and industries make up the largest share.

"New renewables“ includes solar, wind, geothermal and biomass (excl. traditional biomass in residential use) energy. China sources only 2% of its energy supply from new renewables but shows one of the highest growth rates in the G20: energy production from wind, biomass, solar and geothermal energy increased by 170% (2012-2017).

This indicator quanties how

much energy is used for each unit of GDP. China's energy intensity has decreased rapidly (-22% over

2012-2017) and much faster than

the G20 (-11%) but the level is still slightly above the G20 average.

The carbon intensity of China's

energy sector has decreased slightly, reflecting a decreasing share of fossil fuels in the energy mix, but at

72 tCO2/TJ, it remains well above

the G20 average (59 tCO2/TJ).
