Cross border cooperation and technology sharing are the necessary path for global green and low-carbon transformation
2024-09-13
Recently, the prime ministers of two European countries, Spain and Norway, visited China consecutively. During the visit, China and the West signed a cooperation agreement in the field of green development, and China and Norway issued a joint statement on establishing a dialogue on green transformation. This sends a clear signal to the international community that deepening and expanding green cooperation is the common aspiration of both China and Europe. Against the backdrop of accelerating the global transition towards green and low-carbon development, strengthening green cooperation between China and Europe is not only in line with the interests of both sides, but will also effectively promote global green development. On April 19th, in the Barcelona Free Trade Zone of Spain, Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez delivered a speech at the signing ceremony of the electric vehicle cooperation agreement between China's Chery Automobile Company and Spain's Ebro Company. China's Chery Automobile Company and Spain's Ebro Company held a signing ceremony for an electric vehicle cooperation agreement in the Barcelona Free Trade Zone on the 19th. The two sides will establish a joint venture in the local area to jointly develop new electric vehicle products.

Maintaining good dialogue and cooperation between the two sides not only brings tangible benefits to both sides, but also makes important contributions to the global response to climate change and sustainable development. China and Europe have their own advantages in the development of green industries. China's green technology innovation and production capacity are providing effective solutions for the world, from electric vehicles to clean energy. Europe's rich practice in green finance and policies can provide experiential support for this cooperation. The two complement each other's advantages, and through cooperation in green technology, policies, and innovation, China and Europe will jointly promote global green transformation and create a more sustainable future. During his visit to China, Norwegian Prime Minister St ø ller said that China has developed rapidly in the field of new energy technologies in recent years, including products such as solar panels and electric vehicles, which have a wide influence. He stated that Norway looks forward to expanding cooperation with China in areas such as green development, addressing climate change, and new energy vehicles. Under the witness of Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez, a hydrogen energy cooperation agreement was signed between Spain and China. According to the agreement, Chinese companies will build zero carbon hydrogen energy industrial parks in Spain, lay out hydrogen equipment factories and green hydrogen industrial chains, and help Spain and Europe's carbon neutral transformation and green new industrial system construction. These collaborations not only reflect the broad prospects of China Europe green cooperation, but also set an example for China and Europe to jointly lead the global climate governance process and provide new ideas for green cooperation to the world. Currently, the challenge of addressing climate change is becoming increasingly urgent for humanity, and green transformation has become a global trend. As a major global economy, China and Europe shoulder the responsibility of leading the world towards low-carbon and sustainable development. As the United Nations climate change experts have pointed out, global climate issues cannot be solved by a single region or country alone. Cross border cooperation and technology sharing are the only way for the world to achieve green and low-carbon transformation. This is the forum scene captured on April 26th in Brussels, the capital of Belgium. The "2024 Zhongguancun Forum - Brussels Parallel Forum" was held on the 26th in Brussels, the capital of Belgium. Representatives from China and EU countries focused on China EU green transformation and industrial cooperation, discussing the opportunities and challenges faced by both sides in the field of sustainable development. However, the EU has launched consecutive anti subsidy investigations into green energy products imported from China, which goes against the trend of global green cooperation and is also controversial within the EU. Green cooperation is about the future of the world, not short-term gains and losses. Its essence is win-win rather than zero sum. Attempting to protect local industries through trade barriers cannot change the reality of the global climate crisis and is setting obstacles for the global response to climate change. The world needs more high-quality green products and technological innovation to ensure fair circulation and global sharing of these products and technologies. China's successful experience in electric vehicles, renewable energy and other fields can provide useful reference for other countries in the world. Michael Schuman, President of the German Federal Association for Economic Development and Foreign Trade, said that China has become an innovative driving force in the field of electric transportation and plays an important role in the global transportation industry's green and low-carbon transformation. If the EU chooses protectionism, it will only drag down its own green transformation process. In the context of the global climate change crisis, cooperation and mutual trust are the only ways to solve the problem. The EU should seize the opportunity of cooperation with China and demonstrate more strategic vision and responsibility at a critical moment in global climate governance. By deepening green cooperation, China and the EU can not only open up Xintiandi for their respective economic development, but also inject more momentum into global climate governance and jointly lead the world to a greener and more prosperous future.
