Europe-China Eco cities link project (EC-LINK,) is a European Union founded project, a key element of the EU-China Partnership on Sustainable Urbanisation, which was signed by the European Commission and the Chinese government in May 2012. It aims to assist Chinese cities in implementing energy and resource-efficient measures by sharing European cities’ experiences in sustainable urbanisation. Meanwhile, EC-Link has created a platform of experience for easy accessible exchange between Chinese and European cities on low carbon/eco city development issues. Enhancing communication and providing training to Chinese related organizations and its’ staff on policy making, giving technical advices on specific sustainable urban development projects will contribute a lot to China sustainable urbanization. EC-Link has produced Eco city toolboxes, a Knowledge platform and is organising city-to-city cooperation in the frame of City Network Units’ activities (CNUs). CNUs activities are focussed on pilot actions implementation based on the joint work of Chinese and EU experts for a common objective, chosen in the frame of sustainable urbanisation issues. Our aim is to increase learning curve from European cities’ good examples & techniques, strategy and methods. These activities enhanced the communication between Chinese cities and European cities, which formed a solid base for the further cooperation. http://eclink.org/en/ Clean Energy EC-Link Position Paper – January 2018 Authored by: Florian Steinberg and Li Chunyan Clean Energy – EC Link Working Papers - Draft Version 1.5 3 PREFACE China’s Commitment t...
