Research on Carbon Emissions Measurement of Coal-Energy Chain Based on Life-Cycle Assessment Method

Abstract:

Thepaper proposes to established the measurement models of China's coal-energychain carbon emissions based on life-cycle analysis, Through comparing the source andsize of the greenhouse gas emissions of coal-energy chain, the paper gains the totalCO2 equivalent emissions of coal-fired power plant generate unit generatingcapacity during coal-energy chain by detailed calculations is 990.716331 gCO2/kwh.Among them, greenhouse gas emission of coal-fired power generation sector isthe main link in coal-energy chain and aslo the focus of regulation andemissino reduction. Finally puts forward some suggestions to achieve low-carbonpath of China'selectric power industry.
