China Energy Transformation Outlook 2023 (CETO 2023)

How to read CETO 2023

The full China Energy Transformation Outlook 2023 (CETO 2023) report consists of three parts.

Part I gives a brief overview of the global climate crisis and the global energy development situation in Chapter 1, focusing on recent years’ development. It also provides a status for the development of the Chinese energy system and for the energy policy in China in Chapter 2.

Part II is the modelling-based scenario analysis of the Chinese energy system transformation towards 2060. It consists of four chapters: Chapter 3 summarises the overall transition situation of the energy system, including the framework design and assumptions of the three scenarios included in the Outlook. Chapter 4 dives into the energy consumption pathways in the end-use sectors, including the industry sectors, the building sector, the transport sector, and other sectors. Chapter 5 details the analysis of the power sector based on results from the power sector model. Chapter 6 analyses the socio-economic impact of the energy transformation.

Part III includes six thematic chapters unrelated to the modelling-based scenario analysis in Part II. Chapter 7 describes the energy security policies and current situation in China. Chapter 8 analyses an overview of the latest developing progress in carbon pricing in China. Chapter 9 describes the progress related to methane emissions control globally and in China. Chapter 10 analyses trends and case studies of local and regional energy transformation. Chapter 11 summarises the energy and climate policy developments in Denmark. Chapter 12 discusses the significance of green financing to the energy transition.

The summary gives the highlights of the analyses in the Outlook report, including the key findings from the scenario analyses in Part II. The summary can be read as a separate document from the full report. The four chapters in Part II describe the overall conclusions and specific findings of the CETO scenario analyses in detail. Here, it is possible to dive into the details to understand the outlook scenario design and the detailed conclusions by sector. Each of the chapters in Part III can be read independently of the rest of the Outlook to gain insight into each topic.
