The Beijing Organizing Committee for the Winter Olympics, the Beijing Municipal Government and the Hebei Provincial Government jointly issued the Work Plan for Low-carbon Management of the Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympics, which implemented the carbon-neutral policy and adopted carbon reduction measures to achieve the low-carbon goal of the Winter Olympics in many ways.
Adopt low-carbon energy, build low-carbon energy projects, play an exemplary role, establish a cross-regional clean energy power mechanism, fully realize 100% renewable energy, and meet the regular electricity demand of venues; Construction of low-carbon demonstration projects with a total construction area of not less than 3,000 square meters, such as ultra-low energy consumption, and all new permanent venues meet the green building standards; During the Winter Olympics, the transportation service in the competition area is basically guaranteed by clean energy vehicles (excluding special vehicles); Low-carbon standards, promote forestry carbon sequestration projects, establish low-carbon management accounting standards for the Beijing Winter Olympics, and build the legacy of the Winter Olympics.
Since preparing for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, BOCOG has worked closely with the Beijing Municipal Government and the Hebei Provincial Government to form a joint force. All measures have been steadily advanced, and phased results have been achieved, including the use of renewable energy in all venues, and the construction of venues fully meets the green building standards. During the Olympic Games, the proportion of green and clean energy-saving vehicles used in all venues was 1.000%, which was the highest in previous Winter Olympics. The greening project left a legacy for future generations, and the carbon GSP of the Winter Olympics was officially launched.
Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is coming, and "Green Olympics" is coming to us. The Beijing Winter Olympics has built the world's first 500 kV Zhangbei flexible DC network, which will become the first Olympic Games with green and clean electricity 100% in Olympic history. The capital of China became the first host city of the Winter Olympics to use the most environmentally friendly carbon dioxide ice-making technology on a large scale. From low-carbon energy to low-carbon venues to low-carbon transportation, the concept of green Olympics is everywhere in the preparation process of Beijing Winter Olympics. This low carbon is not only a good example for large-scale activities, but also a good example for future development and sustainable development.
