Reference year 2019
Name
Electricity production ; Thermal power ; Zhejiang
Use advice for data set Users should adhere to the methodology outlined in the 'Enterprise Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting Methods and Reporting Guidelines for Power Generation Facilities' when utilizing this data set. It is important to consider that the data set does not include upstream raw material extraction and processing, nor downstream power consumption. Given that the statistics are based on 2019 figures, users must be cautious when applying the data to future scenarios or different time frames. Adjustments may be necessary to account for technological developments or changes in fuel mix. The given CO2 emission factors are calculated using fuel parameters specific to the year and region covered in the data set.
Technical purpose of product or process The described industrial process pertains to thermal power generation in Zhejiang, China, utilizing a variety of fossil fuels such as raw coal, washed coal, oil, and natural gas for the production of electricity. The data set focuses on the direct electricity generation stage and is suitable for application in life cycle assessments of electric power produced by thermal power stations in the Zhejiang region.
Classification
