Journal ArticleDOI
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
The reality and future scenarios of commercial building energy consumption in China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the impact of a variety of scenarios of gross domestic product (GDP) growth, energy elasticity and energy-efficiency improvement on energy consumption in commercial buildings in China using a detailed China End-Use Energy Model.
ReportDOI
Energy Use in China: Sectoral Trends and Future Outlook
Nan Zhou,Michael A. McNeil,David Fridley,Jiang Lin,Lynn Price,Stephane de la Rue du Can,Jayant Sathaye,Mark D. Levine +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed, bottom-up analysis of energy consumption in China is provided, based on assumptions of likely patterns of economic activity, availability of energy services, and energy intensities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Has coal use peaked in China: Near-term trends in China's coal consumption
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed a number of important drivers of coal use and found that these projected increases will lead to near-term growth in China's coal use to levels of approximately 2900 Mtce to 3050 Mtce in 2020, with associated increases in energy-related CO2 emissions.
Near-term trends in China's coal consumption
TL;DR: Lin et al. as mentioned in this paper showed that coal combustion to power China's factories, generate electricity, and heat buildings has increased continually since energy use statistics were first published in 1981, leading to a leveling off of China's overall CO2 emissions.
