Abstract: Under the background of global consensus on carbon neutrality and more intensified regional conflicts, new energy has become the main direction for various countries to implement energy security and low-carbon development goals. New energy technology with the advantages for its large-scale application is increasingly consolidated, typically wind energy, solar energy,geothermal energy, energy storage and controllable nuclear fusion etc. The cost-effective wind energy, solar energy and energy storage will support global energy transformation while new energy production and application enters rapid development era. The proportion for the world’s new energy consumption was 18.2 percent on average in 2022. This figure is estimated to reach about 55 percent in 2050. Global energy is unevenly distributed in resources, consumption, technological development, per-capita consumption, energy conservation and carbon emission. Global energy transformation is accelerated in three areas-decarbonization of fossil energy, largescale application of new energy and intelligence of energy management. China’s modernization emphasized harmony and coexistence between the humanity and nature, active and steady implementing of carbon peak and carbon neutrality and energetic acceleration of energy revolution. China has adhered to the six principles, namely independence in energy production, greenness of energy supply,security of energy reserves, high-efficiency in energy consumption, intelligence of energy management, and economy of energy cost.To ensure energy security, China accelerated construction of a green and intelligent new energy system which is focused on new energy, new electric power, new energy storage and new intelligent energy. Currently, China is a large energy country but not an energy power yet. It is necessary to further optimize nation’s energy consumption mix. China has adopted a new strategy featuring Four Reforms and One Cooperation, refer to improve the consumption revolution, build a more diversified energy supply structure,improve energy technological technologies and optimize energy system, as well as pursue comprehensive cooperation with other countries, aiming to promote China’s energy revolution and transformation of the energy supply pattern. Turn the carbon fossil energy consumption proportion of more than 80 percent in 2022, to non-carbon new energy consumption accounting for more than 80 percent by 2060. Meanwhile, the CO₂ emission from carbon-based energy exceeded 80 percent in 2022 and projected reduced by more than 80 percent by 2060. Acceleration of new energy revolution is a strategic option to build China into an energy power and bring about the strategy for China’s energy independence and national rejuvenation. It is of great significance to construction of the new green energy system and the green ecological earth.
