The Forum has emerged as the most prominent external calling card of Shanxi Province and the most significant platform for international exchange and cooperation, fostering considerable international influence and expanding Shanxi's global "circle of friends."

In preparation for the 2024 Taiyuan Energy Low-Carbon Development Forum, the Foreign Affairs Office has successfully coordinated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for its continued hosting, closely liaised with international partners, and actively extended invitations to government officials, dignitaries, and international organizations from various countries. To date, over 120 foreign guests from more than 30 countries have confirmed their attendance, including 15 provincial- and ministerial-level officials and diplomatic envoys from 11 countries stationed in China. Additionally, guests such as the Mexican Foreign Minister will participate via video conferencing.

This year marks the 52nd anniversary of diplomatic relations and the 11th anniversary of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between Mexico and China. Mexico will participate in the forum as the Guest of Honor country and host a special forum. Experts in the field of electricity and energy from Mexico and representatives from Shanxi Province will gather to focus on the theme of "Enhancing Capabilities and Accelerating Energy Transition," jointly exploring pathways for green and low-carbon development.
