On the vast grasslands of the Inner Mongolia autonomous region, a dazzling gem radiates a green glow – Ordos. This land, rich in energy reserves, is now showing the world the boundless possibilities of a zero-carbon future with a brand new look.

This groundbreaking project seamlessly integrates new energy, new industries and new eco-systems, depicting a fresh landscape for green industries.

By 2025, it aims to be a model for the global green industrial revolution, assisting Ordos in achieving a green output of 300 billion yuan ($ 42.36 billion), creating 100,000 high-tech job opportunities, and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 100 million tons annually.

Ordos' transition to green energy epitomizes that of China. The city, with a brand new look, declares to the world that China's carbon neutrality transformation has entered a substantial stage, at which the establishment of the zero-carbon industrial park is an important testament. Supported by green industries and the enthusiastic participation of various sectors of society, Ordos leads the way in new energy technologies, and showcases China's dedicated pursuit of green development and its passion for ecological civilization.

The local people are fulfilling their dreams of a green life through concrete actions. With wisdom and courage, they are writing the next chapters of a zero-carbon future and contributing China's strength to the global response to climate change.

The industrial park presents a beautiful scene of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature, as well as the infinite possibilities of green development. It embodies limitless potential and aims to record China's resolute steps toward a green future.
