Analysis of air pollution reduction and climate change mitigation in the industry sector of Yangtze River Delta in China
TL;DR: In this article, a GAINS-China model is deployed to evaluate the air pollution reduction and climate change mitigation achievements in the industry sector under the current policy of the three areas (i.e. Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai) in YRD from 2005 to 2030.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitigating Curtailment and Carbon Emissions through Load Migration between Data Centers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the potential of data center load migration for mitigating curtailment and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, using historical hourly electricity generation, curtailment, and typical data center server utilization data, and simulated the effect of migrating data center workloads from the fossil-fuel-heavy PJM to the renewable-heavy CAISO.
