The three pillars of low-carbon energy in China are natural gas, nuclear, and renewable energy. Renewable sources of energy include water, wind, light, biomass, geothermal, and tidal. Natural gas is a relatively low-carbon fossil fuel.

As China transforms its energy systems, natural gas will play an important role in the transition to clean energy.
