BEIJING: China will lead to draft the first international standard for New Energy Power System (NEPS), said the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) at the 2022 Forum on International Standardization, in Nanjing City of east China’s Jiangsu Province.
The NEPS, unlike the traditional system with conventional power resource of coal, is driven by energy carriers such as wind, light, nuclear power and biomass. It is a main method for promoting clean and low-carbon energy transformation and realizing targets of carbon peak and carbon neutrality.
The IEC said on August 20 that, for many years, China has ranked first in the world in terms of installed capacity and power generation of new energy. The country also leads the world in industrial scale and market size of wind power, photovoltaic and lithium batteries.
The international commission announced that it will include the concepts proposed by China into its strategic plan, including carbon peak and carbon neutrality, energy transformation and zero-carbon power system.
In the next five years, the IEC will set up one to two new-tech committees and establish 10 to 20 international standards.
Shu Yinbiao, president of the IEC, told China Media Group that “the international standardization work has entered a new era. China’s carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals have been widely acknowledged by the international community.”
“The pivot of our main international standardization will be building a comprehensive standard system for technology, measurement and verification, so as to establish fair, reasonable carbon governance regulations,” Shu said.

[12:14 AM, 8/24/2022] Hazrat Umer DM: ‘US attempts to use Taiwan against China doomed to fail’
BEIJING: The U.S. attempts to use the Taiwan question to contain China are doomed to fail, and the international community has long been aware of the sinister intentions of the United States and its Western allies against China, said analysts from Pakistan.
The recent visit of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to China’s Taiwan region despite China’s strong opposition is meddling in the country’s internal affairs, they said in a seminar on China-U.S. relations organized by the Islamabad Institute of Conflict Resolution on Thursday.
They added that such a move has seriously undermined peace across the Taiwan Straits and regional stability.
Taiwan has belonged to China since ancient times, said former Pakistani Ambassador to China Naghmana Alamgir Hashmi.
The United States also disregarded the three China-U.S. joint communiques, which clearly state that the Government of the People’s Republic of China is the sole legal government of China, and that Taiwan is part of China, Hashmi said.
The United States is trying to use the Taiwan question and other issues to contain China, said Zafar Nawaz Jaspal, a professor of politics and international relations at Pakistan’s Quaid-i-Azam University.
