“分蛋糕还是做大蛋糕?”当气候谈判因碳预算分配陷入零和博弈,一场在广州举行的国际会议试图给出另一种答案。为期三天的“零碳繁荣:共识与路径”国际会议28日在香港科技大学(广州)进入收官阶段。会议汇聚多国学者、政策制定者、国际组织与产业界代表,探讨以零碳能源驱动增长、而非仅以减排约束发展的全新路径。
这一理念的起点在半年前:今年4月,哥伦比亚圣玛尔塔首届“转轨脱离化石燃料国际会议”上,港科大(广州)团队提出“零碳繁荣”,引发积极反响。此次广州会议将其从概念推向理论框架与政策实践。
“经济发展和福祉保障需要的是能源服务,而不是碳。”香港科技大学(广州)全球气候战略中心署理主任潘家华点破僵局——1.5℃目标下碳预算有限,各国争排放权本质是“分蛋糕”;但光伏、储能、电动车正加速构成一条可替代化石燃料的零碳产业链,把气候议题从“少排”变成“用新能源把蛋糕做大”。中国“新三样”已证明,零碳产业可以与化石碳排放脱钩,并成为增长新引擎。
中国科学院院士秦大河从气候风险侧补上紧迫性:冰川退缩、极端天气正冲击水资源、粮食与公共健康,而各国同时背负能源安全、就业与减贫任务。他期待会议产出“可检验、可衡量”的框架,而非停留在理念。
分歧与难点集中在“繁荣能否共享”。英国萨塞克斯大学教授Pushpam Kumar提醒,零碳转型的综合收益可能超过成本,但不会自动普惠全球南方——高融资成本、薄弱基建与收益分配失衡仍是门槛。中山大学讲席教授赵昌文则提出“工业化与零碳繁荣双轨转型”:发展中国家不必二选一,可通过绿电直供、零碳园区、技术转移,把碳约束转化为产业竞争力。
会议期间,两场“南—北—南”圆桌把讨论拉到操作层。一场聚焦路径与前景,聊风光储降本、关键矿产公平、新型电力系统;另一场谈公正转型,围绕绿色融资、就业替代与能力共建,避免转型放大南北差距。对话指向同一逻辑:零碳不是成本负担,但是否“繁荣”,取决于机会能否下沉到偏远地区、中小产业和低收入国家。
此外,与会者实地走访南沙全自动化码头与超充站,看零碳技术如何嵌入港口、交通与制造场景。港科大(广州)也正把校园本身变成试验场,用“产—智—用—储”系统验证零碳社区与产业园区的可复制性。

The Xinjiang-Chengdu-Chongqing twin-city economic circle pilot city cluster work deployment meeting for comprehensive application of hydrogen energy was held in Chongqing on the 29th. The pilot covers 13 cities and aims to build a hydrogen energy industry ecosystem within four years through north-south resource complementation and industrial chain coordination, and create a national green hydrogen coupled cycle benchmark area.

A report released by the China Electricity Council shows that China’s electricity consumption has grown steadily in the first three quarters and green transformation has accelerated. It is expected that by the end of 2026, the country's installed power generation capacity will reach 4.3 billion kilowatts, of which non-fossil energy will account for about 63%. Solar power has become the largest power source in the country.
Affected by international energy prices and policy absorption costs, Taiwan's PetroChina Co., Ltd.'s cumulative losses are approaching the amount of capital. The Taiwan authorities plan to allocate more than 100 billion yuan in subsidies and capital for relief, but public opinion on the island has criticized this move as treating the symptoms rather than the root cause and failing to solve Taiwan's energy structure problems of over-reliance on natural gas and rejection of nuclear energy.

In the first three quarters of this year, Qinghai Province’s cumulative external power transmission reached 30.866 billion kilowatt-hours, a year-on-year increase of 9.7%. Among them, clean energy power is 30.28 billion kilowatt-hours, accounting for 98.1%. The scope of green power delivery has been expanded to 23 provinces and municipalities.

The Executive Yuan has decided to allocate additional budgets to Taipower and PetroChina, but the opposition parties plan to delete them entirely. Xu Shubo, Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, called on the government and the opposition to rationally discuss the subsidy bill, believing that this move would help stabilize people's living prices and the business operating environment, and prevent state-owned enterprises from being forced to raise energy prices.
The economic affairs department of the Taiwan authorities confirmed that the target of 20% renewable energy power generation, originally scheduled to be achieved in November this year, will be postponed to 2029, four years later than originally planned. This is the second extension of this goal, triggering public criticism that the credibility of the DPP authorities has reached zero.
