Group 1 - The establishment of China Yajiang Group and the commencement of the Yarlung Tsangpo River downstream hydropower project signify a new phase in China's clean energy strategy, with an expected annual power generation exceeding 300 billion kilowatt-hours, equivalent to a reduction of approximately 100 million tons of standard coal consumption and a decrease of 250 million tons of CO2 emissions, making it a key pillar for achieving the "dual carbon" goals [1][3] - China Yajiang Group aims to integrate top domestic hydropower construction capabilities, focusing on the development of hydropower resources in the Yarlung Tsangpo River downstream, optimizing the energy structure in the southwest region, and promoting hydropower technology innovation [3][4] - Hydropower is playing an irreplaceable role in achieving the "dual carbon" goals, with China's annual hydropower generation surpassing 1.3 trillion kilowatt-hours, leading to a reduction of 400 million tons of coal consumption and 1 billion tons of CO2 emissions annually, with these figures continuing to grow [4][6] Group 2 - The green value of hydropower is highlighted by its unparalleled emission reduction benefits, with a million-kilowatt hydropower station saving approximately 3 million tons of standard coal and reducing CO2 emissions by 7 million tons annually; the Three Gorges Project has cumulatively generated over 1.5 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity, equivalent to a reduction of about 1.2 billion tons of CO2 emissions [6] - Modern hydropower projects prioritize ecological protection, implementing facilities for ecological flow release and fish breeding, achieving a balance between power generation and ecological preservation [6][8] - Rural small hydropower stations, numbering 47,000 nationwide, play a crucial role in providing stable electricity to remote areas, reducing firewood consumption by approximately 10 million cubic meters annually, thus protecting valuable forest resources [6] Group 3 - Despite the advantages, hydropower development faces challenges such as ecological protection and the saturation of quality hydropower resources; achieving the carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060 requires exploring new clean energy technologies like geomagnetic energy [8][12] - Geomagnetic energy generation technology offers three main advantages: all-weather power generation, absolute cleanliness with zero emissions, and the ability to harness energy from any location, from the equator to the poles [12]
