ULI Beijing: Developing a Long-Term Strategy for Achieving a Net Zero Carbon CBD
Net Zero Imperative
Over the past five years, nearly every country has committed to achieving Paris Climate Agreement targets. So far, however, while many cities have introduced climate action plans aiming to decarbonize their built environment, few have made meaningful progress in significantly reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. With this in mind, in July 2021, ULI launched the global Net Zero Imperative (NZI), an initiative to help accelerate market transformation toward a net zero built environment, defined as buildings that are highly efficient and fully powered by on-site and/or off-site renewable energy sources.
