Rapid cost decrease of renewables and storage accelerates the decarbonization of China’s power system
Gang He,Gang He,Jiang Lin,Jiang Lin,Froylan Sifuentes,Froylan Sifuentes,Xu Liu,Nikit Abhyankar,Amol Phadke +8 more
TL;DR: If cost trends for renewables continue, 62% of China’s electricity could come from non-fossil sources by 2030 at a cost that is 11% lower than achieved through a business-as-usual approach, which will have a large effect on energy system investment and policies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Where, when and how much solar is available? A provincial-scale solar resource assessment for China
Gang He,Gang He,Daniel M. Kammen +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 10-year hourly solar irradiation data from 200 representative locations to develop provincial solar availability profiles and found that China has a potential stationary solar capacity from 4700 GW to 39300 GW, distributed solar about 200 GW, and the annual solar output could reach 6900 TWh to 70100 TWh.
Journal ArticleDOI
Where, when and how much wind is available? A provincial-scale wind resource assessment for China
Gang He,Daniel M. Kammen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 200 representative locations for which 10 years of hourly wind speed data exist to develop provincial capacity factors from 2001 to 2010, and to build analytic wind speed profiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
SWITCH-China: A Systems Approach to Decarbonizing China’s Power System
Gang He,Anne-Perrine Avrin,James H. Nelson,Josiah Johnston,Ana Mileva,Jianwei Tian,Daniel M. Kammen +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that the announced 2030 carbon peak can be achieved with a carbon price of ∼$40/tCO2, and the co-benefits of carbon-price strategy would offset 22% to 42% of the increased electricity costs if the true cost of coal and the social cost of carbon are incorporated.
Journal ArticleDOI
ELITE cities: A low-carbon eco-city evaluation tool for China
TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper developed ELITE cities, an eco and low-carbon indicator tool for evaluating cities (ELITE cities) to evaluate cities' performance by comparing them against benchmark performance goals as well as rank them against other cities in China.
