The environment problem becoming increasingly prominent in nowadays, people pay more and more attention to low-carbon. The low-carbon status of power plants has a significant impact on the low-carbon development of the whole country. And the proportion of thermal power installed capacity of total installed capacity is more than 70%. So there’s necessity and practical significance to study low-carbon development evaluation system for thermal power plants. This paper discusses the principles, indexes selection and evaluation methods for thermal power plants’ low-carbon development assessment. And its case study done shows the effectiveness of the methods.

The deterioration of the environment is much more serious, which leads to low carbon development of power industry overwhelming, this paper summarizes and analyzes the problems of low carbon development in China’s electricity industry, including the higher cost of low carbon energy construction, unreasonable energy structure, backward level of technology , difficulties of new energy paralleling in power grid; On the other hand, points out some measures towards low carbon development, including determining the price policies of renewable energy, levying carbon taxes and government subsidies, strengthening the construction of western electric facilities, optimizing the power structure, developing new energy technology, applying intelligent grid as well as promoting the international exchange and cooperation. We hope that the analysis can give certain reference for the low carbon development of China’s power industry.

In a low-carbon economic environment, China’s thermal power industry has developed at a rapid speed. Faced with significant development bottlenecks, however, promoting energy conservation and technological innovation has become the current goals of the country’s thermal power industry. Taking into account the heterogeneity of production technology, we utilize panel data of 23 listed thermal power companies in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets from 2010 to 2015 as samples and divide them into large, medium, and small groups according to company size. Based on a meta-frontier function and the non-radial data envelopment analysis method, we evaluate the performance of energy-saving and emissions reduction in the thermal power industry when considering slack variables of energy input and undesirable output. The empirical study’s results show that the mean energy-saving and emissions reduction performance in this power industry is generally low and exhibits significant differences under different frontiers. The performance of energy-saving and emissions reduction from high to low is small, large, and medium-size groups. The small-size group seems to obtain the industry-leading level production technology. Moreover, the technology gap and insufficient management are the primary sources of the total performance loss.

The electric power industry is the energy basic industry of the country, which serves the development of the national economy, but also consumes a lot of energy, and causes heavy pollution to the ecological environment. This paper made investigation on low-carbon development status of the power industry in Shandong Province, identify the problems, and pertinently bring forward countermeasures of low-carbon development of electric power industry in Shandong Province.

In a significant period of Chinese energy reformation to the point of expediting revolution in energy production and consumption, and promoting green low-carbon upgrading transformation of energy electricity, Chinese government has to implement the obligatory policy of renewable portfolio standards (RPS) with specific institutional provisions sternly. The renewable energy quotas in thermal power industry with carbon emission abatement constraints particularly have a latent impact on the behavior of thermal electricity producers, which is ineluctably involved in electricity connection of grid companies. To make clear the positive role in boosting investment in renewable energy generation in thermal power industry under mandatory quotas requirements, we will utilize evolutionary game based on system dynamics (SD) to tackle with the sophisticated nexus among the government, thermal power producers and grid companies. We begin analysis of general evolutionary strategy stability in scenario ll by dynamically adjusting values of external variables of SD model to uncover pivotal variables affecting evolutionary strategy stability. Then in scenario I, the dynamic punishment structure consisting of cost elements to spark off the emulation of optimal manoeuvre selections of tripartite game agents is amended based on the simulation of vital variables affecting evolutionary strategy stability in scenario II. The significant conclusions provide decision-making support and management enlightenment for Chinese government to edge renewable energy generation capacity of thermal power producers and constrained degree of dynamic penalty for grid companies.
