Energy conservation and emission reduction are pivotal in achieving sustainable development goals. In 2023, the energy consumption growth rate for the Group of 20 escalated to 2.3% (ED, 2024), substantially exceeding the decadal average of 1.3%.Given that China is the world''s largest consumer of energy, an examination of its energy dynamics is crucial for global
The purpose of Energy Storage Technologies (EST) is to manage energy by minimizing energy waste and improving energy efficiency in various processes [141].
