低碳导向的校园能源碳核算方法研究及应用

Low-carbon Oriented Methodology of Energy-related Carbon Accounting and Its Application in Campus

摘要:

以碳核算为基础的量化研究是低碳校园建设和管理的关键。研究综合了政府间气候变化专门委员会(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC)、世界资源研究所(World Resources Institute, WRI)和青年应对气候变化行动网络(China Youth Climate Action Network, CYCAN)等机构的研究成果,建立了适用于国内的校园能源碳核算方法,以上海市某大学为例进行了能源碳排放分析。结果显示2004-2012年该校的碳排放量呈增长趋势,增长率为5.75%,2012年CO2排放达41112 t,其中电力和汽油碳排放分别占68.7%和25.0%；国内外低碳校园对比结果显示,整体可行的低碳校园建设计划的制定和落实,很可能是造成发达国家高校低碳建设成果显著的主要原因；重新审视低碳校园内涵,认为校园低碳应是相对自身的低碳,是一种持续改进、高能效运行的状态；在能源碳核算分析的基础之上,提出了低碳校园管理策略。

Abstract:

Quantitative research based on carbon accounting is the key of low-carbon campus construction and management. The achievements of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), World Resources Institute (WRI) and China Youth Climate Action Network (CYCAN) were integrated to develop a new method on energy-related carbon accounting in campus, which was then applied to the analysis of energy-related carbon emission in one of the university in Shanghai. The results showed an increasing trend of carbon emission from 2004 to 2012, with an average annual growth rate of 5.75%. Carbon emission in 2012 was 41112 ton CO2-eq, in which electricity-related emission accounted for 68.7%, and gasoline-related emission accounted for 25.0%. This study compared the low-carbon campus constructions in China with those abroad and showed that the integral and achievable low-carbon planning is likely to lead to a significant decrease of CO2 emission in western countries. Low-carbon in campus was redefined as a lower-carbon condition with continuously improvement and high energy efficiency compared to the baseline condition in campus. A low-carbon campus managing strategy was proposed based on energy-related carbon accounting analysis.
