Researchers estimate that greenhouse gasemissions from industrial parks accounted for over 30% of the national total in 2015.3Referencing theNational Zero-Carbon Park Construction Indicator System, reducing the average carbon emissions intensityof industrial parks by 50% from current levels could avert approximately 1.95 billion tons of CO₂ emissions.iIf all industrial parks in China ultimately meet zero-carbon targets (0.2–0.3 ton CO₂ per metric ton ofstandard coal equivalent), this would avoid approximately 3.3 billion to 3.5 billion tons of CO₂ emissions,making a significant contribution to achieving China’s dual carbon goals. Developing low-carbon and zero-carbon parks supports the low-carbon transformation of energysystems and promotes regionally coordinated green industrial development.iiIt a
