01 引言 Introduction
As one of the most massive importers of energy, the second largest economy in the world, and one of the biggest populations in the world, China is the high consumption of fossil fuels in the world. The problem is that while fossil fuel prices are increasing, access to them is even more challenging.
作为全球最大的能源进口国之一、世界第二大经济体和全球人口最多的国家，中国是目前消耗化石燃料最多的国家。虽然化石燃料的价格在不断上涨，但比起这个问题，更严重的是获取化石燃料的难度也在逐渐增大。
This is a global issue, not only in China. Chinese President Xi Jinping made a surprise pledge at the United Nations in September 2020. "The world’s second-largest economy will reach carbon neutrality by 2060". However, analysts report that China will have to deliver that promise a decade earlier if the world wants to switch to 100 percent renewable energy.
能源问题不仅仅出现在中国，更是一项全球性挑战。中国国家主席习近平于2020年9月在联合国大会上宣布中国作为世界第二大经济体，将在2060年前实现碳中和。有关专家分析说，如果全球想要转向使用百分百可再生能源，中国必须提前十年兑现这一承诺。
China is already acting to deliver its promise. Working on storage energy, installing infrastructure for renewable energy all around the country, installing solar panels on the roof of buildings, and rising solar farms and renewable energy stations all around China.
中国已经为兑现其承诺开始采取行动。为了储能，中国在全国范围内建设可再生能源基础设施、在建筑物顶部安装太阳能电池板、建立太阳能收集站和可再生能源站。
China is one of many that take action to switch entirely to sustainable energy. As one of the world's leaders, China recognizes the energy concern that spread, the difficulties countries have to handle, and the prosperity they can reach by taking specific actions. They all march together toward the same trend.
中国是承诺完全转向可再生能源的国家之一。作为全球领先的国家之一，中国已经意识到逐渐扩散的能源问题将会带来的困难，以及如果中国采取具体行动所能实现的繁荣局面。世界将携手迈向同一个目标。
02 全球现状 The World's Situation
Promises by world leaders, global summits, and many conventions concerning this issue are delivered as it is now well understood that the world needs to change its behavior regarding the consumption of fossil fuels and transformation to renewable energy for the sake of the environment and economy of the world.
针对能源问题的全球峰会相应召开，各国领导人纷纷在大会上作出承诺。各国都清楚为了维护全球经济发展和环境，每个国家都需要改变其消耗化石能源的方式，转向使用可再生能源。
The world leaders' intention is to be self-dependent regards energy production and, furthermore, to switch entirely or partly to sustainable energy.
各国领导人都希望能在能源消耗上实现自给自足，并且实现完全向可再生能源转化。
If China makes the switch, as the world's most significant consumer of fossil fuels, the rest of the world will follow. Being a pioneer at this sector in China will generate a huge advantage in the future.
中国化石燃料消耗量是世界上最大的，如果能成功实现这一转变，其他国家将随之效仿。在能源方式转变上成为领先者，对中国未来发展也有巨大的优势。
03 对中国生态系统的影响 The impact on China's ecosystem
Storage energy can significantly impact the Chinese ecosystem in several ways. First, it can reduce the country's dependence on fossil fuels, which can help to lower carbon emissions and improve air quality. Additionally, increased storage capacity can enable more widespread use of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, which can help to protect natural resources and reduce the environmental impact of power generation.
储能可以极大改善中国生态系统，主要表现在以下几个方面。首先，储能可以减少中国对于化石燃料的依赖，从而降低碳排放量并且改善空气质量。此外，增加储能可以推动更广泛使用像太阳能和风能等可再生资源，达到保护自然资源、并减少能源生产对环境造成的影响。
The need for fossil fuels suppliers, the high price of generating power on the grid, and the small number of sustainable energy stations to replace fossil fuels impact China's ecosystem. In addition, factories are reporting a shutting down production during rush hours because of the high price of electricity.
对于化石燃料供应的需求，风力发电的高昂造价，代替化石燃料的少量需求，这些因素都在影响着中国生态系统。不仅如此，许多工厂由于用电成本过高，纷纷在用电高峰期关停生产。
Energy security concerns have become one of the Chinese leadership’s top priorities. As a result, China is stepping up oil and gas exploitation to be more self-dependent and rely less and less on fossil fuels.
能源安全问题成为中国领导人的首要关注点。因此，中国正加紧开采油气资源，减少对化石燃料的依赖，实现能源自给自足。
How does storage energy work? The idea is to generate sustainable energy during all-effective hours, store the excess energy, and use that stored energy in the reset hours of the day. Nowadays, during the pick hours, if the price hits too high, factories shut down their work, and the demand for more power surge the construction of new power station generated on fossil fuels. Storage energy replaces those new power stations and gives a much better solution. That consumes less money, benefits more with the environment, and achieves much more of the government and citizen goals.
储能的原理是什么？储能就是指高效生产能源，把多余的能源储存起来以便在其他时段使用。当前如果成本太高，工厂就会在高峰时段停止作业，对能源的大量需求就会促进建造大量化石燃料站。储能技术作为更好的解决方案，代替了新能源站。储能成本低，对环境更加有益，能实现更多政府和居民目标。
Storage energy can also help to improve the reliability and stability of the power grid by providing a source of backup power during outages or periods of high demand. This can help to mitigate the effects of power shortages and blackouts, which can be particularly disruptive for businesses and industries.
储能技术还能在需求量大时作为后备电源，提高能源网的可依赖性和可持续性。这有助于减少能源短缺和管制时对工商业带来的毁灭性影响。
However, storage energy also presents its own set of environmental concerns, particularly with regard to the materials used in batteries. The production of lithium-ion batteries, for example, can be resource-intensive and lead to the release of pollutants into the air and water. Additionally, the disposal of used batteries can also pose environmental hazards if not handled properly.
但是，储能也会造成环境问题，尤其是电池里的材料。例如锂电池的制造就属于资源密集型，会导致污染物排放到空气和水中。此外，废弃电池如果处理不当就扔掉，也会造成环境威胁。
04 总结 Conclusion
Energy concerns are becoming increasingly popular in each country, particularly in China. leaders understand they have to take significant actions.
能源问题在各国越来越重要，对中国来讲尤为如此。各国领导人都深知必须采取行动以应对能源问题。
Many countries searched for natural gas or oil in their field, so they would not have to rely on another country, but they know it is a solution until they can switch to renewable energy. Therefore, this solution only partially solves the concrete problem but will give them enough time to work on a more efficient solution.
许多国家开始在国内开采天然气和油田，以摆脱对其他国家的依赖，但是在转向使用可再生能源前，这只是权宜之计。尽管不能完全解决能源问题，但可以给这些国家足够的时间，去想出更有效的措施。
The most efficient solution must consider the environmental problem, global warming, electricity demand, and natural resources. Currently, storage energy seems the best candidate to reach this position, but this solution doesn't stand alone. Every country will have to increase the focus and effort on creating renewable energy made from wind, solar, or natural gas (with carbon capture and sequestration) to generate that energy and, in addition, not depend on other countries resources.
最有效的措施一定兼顾环境问题、全球变暖、用电需求和自然资源方面。目前，储能技术似乎是实现这一目标的最佳答案，但是光有储能是不够的。各国应更加关注、采取更多行动，开发风能、太阳能或天然气转化成的可再生能源，以及碳捕捉和碳埋存，摆脱对他国自然资源的依赖。
The usage of renewable energy will decrease the electricity price. Storage energy will be able to release more power during rush hour without needing to generate more new energy. Furthermore, the production of renewable energy decreases the damage we are doing to our plant and will achieve a better result with more negligible risk.
使用可再生资源将降低电力价格。储能有助于在高峰时间释放更多能量，无需依赖新能源的生产。另外，可再生资源有利于减少我们对地球环境的损害，在降低风险的同时达到更好的效果。
Overall, the development and implementation of storage energy can have both positive and negative impacts on the Chinese ecosystem. It will be necessary for policymakers and industry leaders to carefully consider these factors as they work to expand the use of this technology.
总而言之，储能技术的发展和实行对中国生态系统来讲是一把双刃剑。政策制定者和行业领导者在推广该项技术时，需要仔细分析相关因素。
