Key Data Set Information
Location CN
Reference year 2019
Name
Electricity production ; Electricity mix ; China
Use advice for data set When using this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment, data users should consider the proportions of the electricity mix based on current or projected generation data. It is important to note regional variations within China which might affect the applicability of the data for specific geographies. The temporal relevancy of the data should also be examined as the electricity mix can vary over time. The inclusion or exclusion of upstream processes (e.g., fuel extraction for thermal generation) and downstream processes (e.g., waste treatment and decommissioning) should be well-documented and consistent with the goal and scope of the assessment.
Technical purpose of product or process This dataset represents the mixed electricity generation in China, which includes a range of generation methods such as thermal (coal, gas, and oil-fired), hydroelectric, wind, nuclear, and solar power. The electricity mix is applicable to various sectors including residential, commercial, and industrial contexts where electricity sourced from the national grid is utilized.
