Abstract

This study examines the transition pathways of low-carbon energy systems in the provinces of Guangdong, Jiangsu, and Shanxi. By analyzing factors such as economic foundation, population and urbanization level, natural conditions, and policies, it reveals how these factors influence the energy structure and transition process. The study finds that economically developed Guangdong and Jiangsu, supported by strong investment capacity and policy support, can significantly promote the development of clean energy and gradually reduce dependence on fossil fuels. In contrast, Shanxi, heavily reliant on coal resources, faces a longer transition period and technical challenges. This paper summarizes the differences among the provinces in wind power, photovoltaic, nuclear power, and natural gas, and proposes general transition patterns suitable for different regions, providing a theoretical basis for formulating energy transition strategies tailored to local characteristics.
