Abstract
In light of global climate change, China has set strategic goals for carbon peaking by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, emphasizing the necessity of constructing a new power system with a high proportion of renewable energy sources. As coal-fired power plants are the main carbon emissions source in the power system, their low-carbon transition and morphology structure optimization is crucial. This paper explores the critical role of dynamic carbon emission factors within source–network–storage power system planning and proposes an innovative inverse dynamic carbon emission factor that effectively captures the nonlinear relationship between load rates and emissions. Comparative analyses using the HRP-38 test case demonstrate that the inverse model enhances computational efficiency, reduces solution times, and more accurately reflects the emissions characteristics of coal-fired units across varying operational conditions. Furthermore, the inverse model offers improved economic performance and broader flexibility in unit selection, highlighting its potential to balance carbon emissions control and economic optimization in future power system planning.
