Beijing,
Tianjin, Hebei and their surrounding areas are known as the most serious air
pollution area in China. Relevant research showed that during heavy haze
pollution episodes in winter, low source emissions, e.g. bulk coal combustion,
contributed a lot to the concentration of PM2.5.In order to promote civil bulk
coal replacement and air quality improvement in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region,
CAEP research team have implemented this research to design the electricity
substitution plan for civil bulk coal and analyze the corresponding economic
costs and environmental effects, so as to provide decision-making reference for
the government. This research was funded by the Energy Foundation. The project
team carried out field visit to Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province, and
investigated the basic status of civil coal using, the progress of energy
substitution of coal to clean energy and the main obstacles. Three workshops on
these issues were held in Beijing (in July 2016, March 2017 and August 2017
respectively), and relevant experts taking part in these discussions by the
Ministry of Environmental Protection, the National Energy Administration,
Tsinghua University, Beijing Municipal Research Institute of Environmental
Protection, Beijing Municipal Commission of Rural Affairs, Tianjin Development
and Reform Commission and other relevant agencies.
