摘要
As the proportion of electricity in final energy consumption gradually increases,CO_(2) emissions reduction actions in the power system will become the key to achieving China’s carbon-peak and carbon-neutrality goals.It is essential to analyse and quantify the driving forces of CO_(2) emissions from electricity generation in the fossil-rich area in China.This paper aims to identify the characteristics of CO_(2) emissions generated by electricity and provide a basis for formulating CO_(2)-reduction policies in power systems.First,we analyse the current state of CO_(2) emissions from electricity generation in Anhui Province that was dominated by fossil energy during the period 2010-19.Then,we apply the logarithmic mean Divisia index method to find the nature of the factors influencing the changes in CO_(2) emissions.Finally,we analyse the CO_(2)-reduction measures of each side of the source-network-load-storage of the power system in Anhui through a power-system carbon-reduction path analysis model proposed in this study and provide policy suggestions.The results showed the following.(i)CO_(2) emissions in Anhui Province continued to increase from 2010 to 2019 and the trend in the growth rate of CO_(2) emissions presented approximately a u-shaped curve.(ii)Economic activity has always been the dominant factor driving the growth of electricity CO_(2) emis-sions.The increase in the proportion of renewable energy in power generation,the improvement in thermal power-conversion efficiency and the decrease in the intensity of power consumption are the three major driving factors for the reduction in CO_(2) emissions from power generation in Anhui.(iii)The CO_(2)-reduction measures of the power system are provided in each link of the source-network-load-storage,such as developing the photovoltaic industry and building energy storage,upgrading and transforming coal-fired power stations,redu-cing the loss rate of transmission lines on the grid side and improving the efficiency of the utilization of electricity on the user side.
