China's power grid clean-up puts several US systems to shame: Maguire
By Gavin Maguire China's power grid clean-up puts several US systems to shame: Maguire LITTLETON, Colorado, - China's steady expansion to coal-fired power capacity has drawn ire from U.S. power system advisers who gripe that there's little point in cleaning up generation at home while China lifts coal-fired emissions ever higher. But those arguments overlook the fact that China's power generation network is already substantially cleaner than several major U.S. power systems, thanks to record-fast deployment of clean energy supplies. Indeed, China's power system emitted less carbon dioxide per unit of electricity production last year than that of the state of Florida and several other major U.S. power systems. DECLINING INTENSITY The growing share of clean power within China's electricity system is leading to steady falls in the country's so-called carbon intensity of electricity production.
