Abstract: Contribution deals with application of method and tools that are possible for using of economical evaluation of photovoltaic power plants and profitability of their service. Result of application is decision of investors to accept, or reject investment project of photovoltaic power plant redevelopment in conditions of Slovak republic.

Abstract: It is introduced the problems that coal mines in China are facing now, including the heavy taxes, the enormous amount of workers, the inefficient supervision and being easily effected by the policy. It is suggested that the government should make some policy which are good for the sustainable development of coal mine, and the government should encourage coal mine to adjust their industry in a scientific way, also it is good to reward the coal mine which are run in a low carbon economy model. During the process to build a sustainable coal mine, attention should be paid that it is a course of events which couldnt be accomplished immediately, time is needed to finish the goal of sustainable development of coal mine in China.

Abstract: With the increasing strain on fossil energy supply and deterioration of the environment caused by fossil energy consumption, improving energy consumption structure and vigorously developing new energy are becoming imperative. In recent years, great progress has been made in Chinese new energy industry development. But the bottleneck occurs at present. This paper analyzes the development obstacles of new energy industry in China, and countermeasures for Chinese new energy industry development are given.

Abstract: China has been experiencing a remarkable economic growth for the past three decades accompanied by significant energy consumption and environmental pollution, which led to great pressure on energy supply and environmental protection. The development of renewable energy has therefore become a major strategic issue for the country’s energy security, economic development, environmental sustainability and social stability. Meanwhile the participation of the private sector into the renewable energy sector has become increasingly important and necessary to utilize their knowledge, skills and resources as an effective supplement to the Chinese government which dominates the sector but suffers low efficiency and declining credit lines. Aiming at a better understanding of the activities and trends of the private sector in the renewable energy sector of China, this study retrieved project level data from the Private Participation in Infrastructure (PPI) database of the World Bank, and examined the data from various dimensions, such as investment size, PPI type, technology, and geographical distribution. Important and interesting observations were drawn such as emerging western China market and fast growing biomass sub-sector. A comparison between conventional fossil fuel projects and renewable energy projects was also undertaken in terms of unit cost and the results confirmed the high installation cost of renewable energy projects and highlighted the importance of government subsidies at present and technological advances in the long run to support the development of renewable energy. The empirical findings, although restricted by shortcomings of the data source, can provide valuable implications to policy makers and infrastructure investors interested in the renewable energy market of China.

Abstract: The information system with function of data acquisition and processing could be an essential foundation of decision making and planning for government on energy resource management in China. However, some existing barriers have impeded the usage of data, such as inefficiency mode of data reporting and transmission, sluggishness of data collection and summarization, deficiency of data standardization and serious information asymmetry. In this paper, a framework planning of an info management platform in provincial level is proposed for energy resource condition analysis and prediction. The various types of data from industries of electrical power, coal, petroleum and others such as bio-gas is acquired and analyzed based on certain data processing methods. And the related systems of statistic index, early warning index, monitoring index and unit GDP energy consumption statistic index and evaluation are established. The proposed platform can support info service to government or related department, help keep the balance and stabilization of energy supply.

Abstract: With the development of the social and economy, China faces the increasingly serious energy crisis and more and more depends on energy imports. In this paper, the energy demand crisis is analyzed, and the status of the energy research and project status quo policy was discussed. At last, this paper gives the ways and means of the resolution of the crisis of energy demand, puts forward the sustainable energy development strategy, and builds the energy system and the relevant policies to alleviate the crisis of energy demand in China to a certain extent.

Abstract: With the increasing lack of conventional energy, in order to promote the harmonious development of society and economy, how to reduce the emissions of polluting energy becomes very important. This paper will from two aspects to talk about energy emissions—emissions allowance trading and its effect on product prices and opportunity cost for free allocations of emissions permits.So that we can control energy emissions better.

Abstract: Aside from the changes happening to the life around the world, global warming also threats commercial activities. The transition to a low carbon world will transform our whole economy. Additionally, a low carbon industrial strategy must seize the opportunities that will come with change: a new industrial activism for a new green industrial revolution. When we are pursuing economic growth, it is required to take environmental influences into consideration. Especially, when governmental effort is spent to regulate economic policies, it is required to promote low carbon economy with sustainable and feasible policies and measures beneficial for the environment. Under the background of global warming, the low carbon economic themed with low energy consumption, and low pollution has become a global hot spot.

Abstract: The accelerator driven systems (ADS) have a harder spectrum than fast reactor, and will play a more important role in waste transmutation. The structure of the ADS is more comprehensive than other traditional reactors, thus it is necessary to do the preliminary economic study of ADS. This paper calculates and compares the LCOE of once-through, PWR-SFR cycle and PWR-ADS cycle. It turned out that ADS does not have economic advantage in producing electricity compared with PWR and SFR, but it produces significantly less HLW than PWR and SFR for same amount of electricity. If the MA is paid more than $80557/kgHM, ADS can compete with the PWR in our study.

Abstract: Under the background of the construction of ecological civilization, the paper expounds the present situation of coal industry, analyzed the new situation of the coal industry. On the basis of the construction of ecological civilization, paper is put forward for the sustainable development of coal industry sustainable development model and three main line. Finally it is concluded that the coal industry based on the sustainable development of ecological civilization path.
