Energy-related Carbon Emission in Tianjin and Strategy Implications

Abstract

This paper presents a system analysis on Tianjin's current carbon emission based on survey. By introducing the equation of IPCC guidelines (2006), the total carbon emissions and details in three sectors (primary industry, secondary industry and tertiary industry) were analyzed. Meanwhile, Tianjin's energy structure was evaluated. Results show that the amount of carbon emissions had been increasing from 2000 to 2009 with the rapidly growth of GDP and Tianjin's energy structure was unreasonable. To reduce the carbon emissions, Tianjin need optimize its energy structure and industry structure.
