Outline of Final Research Achievements

Under the middle and long-term low carbon society scenario for Chinese 31 provinces, the co-benefits of each low carbon society policies on the mitigation benefit of air pollution were estimated by using residential energy structure model and three dimensional regional chemical transport model. Especially, the energy consumption for each fuel type and each household purpose were calculated by each province and by urban and rural area. In addition, effectiveness of provincial air pollution prevention and control action plans on the air pollution mitigation were estimated by chemical transport model.
