• Publication 8 November 2022 Scaling up investment in climate technologies
• Publication 8 November 2022 Research on regional energy efficiency based on GIS technology and image quality processing Economic development requires energy support, but the economy that relies too much on high energy consumption and high pollution is not sustainable. However, due to blind investment and low-level expansion of some new energy companies, some new energy industry has overcapacity and low production efficiency, slowing down the pace of new energy industry development, and limiting the development space of new energy companies. Thus, this paper is based on the GIS technology and image quality…
