In the process of addressing global climate change, China has put forward the goal of "carbon neutrality". At present, under the guidance of "carbon neutrality", the domestic energy and economic systems are continuously transforming in the direction of green and sustainable development. The establishment of the goal of "carbon neutrality" is both a challenge and an opportunity. In response to the technology and investment business opportunities that have emerged under "carbon neutrality", Hillhouse also took the lead in exploring.

The research report titled "Towards Carbon Neutrality in 2060 —— Focusing on the Opportunities and Challenges on the Road to Decarbonization" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") released by Hillhouse is to explore the opportunities and challenges brought about by global climate change.

The report focuses on the opportunities related to eight key areas to achieve "carbon neutrality", including power, transportation, industry, new materials, construction, agriculture, negative carbon emissions, and information communication and digitalization. For example, the improvement of silicon wafer and cell technology in photovoltaic power generation in the power field, electrification in the transportation and industrial fields, recycling and regeneration in the field of new materials, energy-saving renovation in the field of construction, chemical fertilizers in the field of agriculture and emission reduction technologies related to livestock and poultry breeding, Carbon capture, storage and utilization (CCUS) technology in the field of negative carbon emissions and smart lifestyle and health in the field of information technology and digitalization.

在应对全球气候变化问题的进程中，中国提出了“碳中和”的目标。目前，以“碳中和”为引导,国内的能源及经济系统都在持续向绿色可持续发展的方向转变。“碳中和”目标的确立，既是挑战，也是机遇。针对“碳中和”下爆发出的科技与投资商机，高瓴也率先迈出了探索的步伐。

高瓴发布的题为《迈向2060碳中和——聚焦脱碳之路上的机遇和挑战》的研究报告(以下简称《报告》)，正是探讨全球气候变革带来的机遇及挑战。

《报告》重点梳理了实现“碳中和”的八大重点领域的相关机会，包括电力、交通、工业、新材料、建筑、农业、负碳排放以及信息通信与数字化领域。如电力领域的光伏发电中硅片和电池片技术提升、交通和工业领域的电气化、新材料领域的循环利用再生、建筑领域的节能改造、农业领域的化肥和畜禽养殖排放相关减排技术、负碳排放领域的碳捕集封存和利用(CCUS)技术以及信息技术与数字化领域的智慧生活方式与健康等。
