Three ministries released “Implementation Plan on Accelerating the Construction of a Unified and Regulated Statistics and Accounting System”

On 23 September 2025, experts and policymakers from China and Germany came together in Shanghai to exchange insights on enhancing the carbon market data quality of the iron and steel industry. Co-hosted by GIZ and the National Center for Climate Change Strategy and International Cooperation (NCSC), the workshop took place at a crucial moment, as China has included the steel sector in its national carbon market earlier this year. This development presents an important step toward achieving its carbon peaking and neutrality goals, and a valuable opportunity for deeper Sino-German collaboration in the climate field. By bringing together Chinese, German, and EU perspectives, participants explored pathways for enhanced technical cooperation and mutual learning.

On 7 June 2023, the National Center for Climate Change Strategy and International Cooperation (NCSC) organised the closing workshop of one cooperation project on mitigation of industry related N2O. The cooperation is part of the project “Sino-German Cooperation on Emissions Trading Systems, Carbon Market Mechanisms, and Industry-related N2O Mitigation.”

On 27 March 2023, GIZ and NCSC jointly held the “Technical Workshop on MRV in the Emissions Trading Systems” online.
