Abstract: Based on the analysis of the carbon emission calculating method recommended by IPCC, a stationary emission source of a coal generation power plant was studied. The specific production data such as unit electricity generation, coal consumption and fuel characteristics data were analyzed. A new calculating method of stationary source carbon emissions in the coal-fired power plant was proposed,which is based on the carbon emission balance of the coal fuel combustion. This calculating method was applied to a power generation company's 11 coal-fired power plants with 40 different capacity units. The calculated outcomes provide a useful reference for developing policies of CO2 emission reduction.
