Against the background of the transformation of the global climate governance system, this study systematically examines the institutional practice of China's Energy Law in aligning with the goals of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) using the normative coordination theory as the analytical framework. The research shows that the Energy Law has established a strategic orientation for low-carbon transformation through the reconstruction of value goals, and constructed a legal framework to undertake NDC commitments by means of innovative mechanisms such as the dual control system for carbon emissions and the mandatory renewable energy consumption system. However, in practice, it still faces coordination dilemmas such as insufficient coordination among energy-specific laws, imperfect carbon emission monitoring and verification systems, and the impact of changes in international rules. To this end, it is necessary to promote the systematic revision of the energy legal system, strengthen the operational rules of key systems, enhance the ability to adapt to international rules, and improve the funding and technical guarantee mechanisms, ultimately realizing the transformation of NDC goals from international commitments to domestic governance effectiveness.
