Description
Summary:Energy conservation and emissions reduction has become a major environmental concern for all both in China and beyond. The Chinese government has announced ambitious domestic indicative autonomous mitigation targets for 2030. The objective function of this paper is to maximize the total emission reduction resulting from the shift to wind power generation from 2016 to 2030. Combined with several important factors affecting the development of wind power, the study explores the development path and emission reduction potential of wind energy in China based on Sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis.
