    Co-ordinating energy structure and regulating energy market are powerful tools for China to achieve carbon peaking and carbon neutrality by 2030 and 2060.To complete the target,it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive investigation on energy structures and carbon emission patterns of various regions,and explore the key factors affecting energy structure transformation.According to geographic environment,economy,energy and other factors,China can be divided into four regions:the North Corridor (the traditional energy storehouse),the Important Industry Area (energy-intense industrial areas),the East Group (the major energy customer) and the Green Zone(the clean energy treasure-house). By analyzing the energy history in the regions above,three “unbalanced” issues are considered to be solved,which are unreasonable proportions of traditional fossil energy and clean energy,the unbalance between energy supply and demand in space,and the disparate development of green energy and high-quality GDP.Therefore,three suggestions are put forward in order to take economic and environmental benefits into account:connecting GDPs to total carbon emissions;setting GDP weight coefficient,namely "GDP grade";registering ID for green energy users and formulating reference pricing standards for them;establishing energy bridges and making energy allocation aiming to balance the energy structure and economic development and realizing sustainable development of economic environment in China.
