讲座简介

本次讲座将解析碳化的定义、成因及其影响，并针对占全球碳排放总量30%以上的电力行业，提出减少二氧化碳排放的技术解决方案。为实现电力行业碳减排目标，工业化国家与新兴经济体需携手合作，综合运用风能、太阳能、水力与核能等低碳发电技术，结合储能系统、跨境输电网络及聚焦能效提升的先进技术。讲座还将探讨IEEE气候变化项目及相关行动计划。

This lecture explains what carbonization is, addresses its causes and impacts. It then offers technological solutions to reduce CO2 emissions from the electric power sector which is responsible over 30% of global Carbon emissions. In order to address the reduction of carbon emissions from the electric power sector, a collaborative approach between the industrialized nation states and emerging economies is necessary. This will involve a portfolio of solutions with low-carbon generation from wind, solar, hydro and nuclear, storage, cross-border power transfer and advanced technology focusing on energy efficiency. This talk also discusses the IEEE Climate Change program and related activities.
