“Double Carbon” is the abbreviation for emission peak and carbon neutrality. In September 2020, China proposed to strive to achieve an "emission peak" by 2030 and "carbon neutrality" by 2060. In this context, the process of energy transformation and new energy substitution is accelerating. And those areas with weak new energy resources urgently need to solve the transformation problems caused by limited local resources. Taking Anhui Province of China as an example, this essay studies the trend of energy development and changes, and compares Anhui with Jiangxi Province, which shares similar resource endowments, in order to explore energy transformation plans that are in line with provincially local conditions. The consumption of typical fossil fuels and the development conditions of new energy sources in Anhui Province are analyzed by using the methods of statistical and qualitative analysis. Based on the experience of transformation in neighboring Jiangxi Province and fully considering the functional orientation of Anhui Province in energy and economic fields in East China, this paper concludes that in Anhui Province, the efficient and safe utilization of local new energy resources should be given priority, along with actively promoting the technology of new energy generation and storage. Anhui Province should also strive to transfer existing rich new energy resources and promote cooperation in new energy supply with other provinces to improve the capability of energy guarantee, which may inject new impetus into economic development.
