在世界范围内，煤炭仍然是发电的主导燃料。煤炭的燃烧方式影响着污染物的排放率和总排放量。几十年来，许多国家为煤炭质量制订了一系列标准和细则，使得电厂经营者减少了运行和维护成本，改善了锅炉的热效率。高效率意味着同样发电量需要的煤炭投入减少，降低了二氧化碳、二氧化硫以及颗粒物的排放。改善煤质也减少了燃烧过程产生的固体废物，延长电厂寿命和减少其生态足迹。中国燃煤量居世界首位，煤质国际最佳实践这篇文章倡导中国采取行动提高煤质，并给出了如何实现这一目标的具体建议。… View Summary +
Coal continues to be the dominant fuel choice for power generation around the world. How that coal is burned can influence the rate and quantity of emissions produced by its combustion. For decades, many countries have established standards and specifications… View Summary +
In this paper, RAP extracts information from our work in six states in the U.S. to examine state practices for integrated resource planning and energy efficiency. We examine how these state practices work together and are in some cases converging. View Summary +
Energy issues are environmental issues, and environmental issues increasingly are energy issues. This link is inescapable: energy decisions have profound environmental and public health impacts, and energy-related emissions are changing the heat balance of Earth. The purpose of this paper… View Summary +
这篇文章是睿博能源智库关于强制性节能政策（EEO）综合报告中对最佳实践的总结。世界各国政府一直努力通过设计和实施一些强制性节能政策提高终端能源利用效率，并实现其他相关的目标。这些机制要求能源供应商例如电力和燃气公司通过帮助用户实施终端节能措施来实现量化节能目标。全文报告分析了世界各地所采用的19种EEO政策机制。其中包括对中国2011年1月开始施行的电力需求侧管理办法的详细描述。全文报告用一张表格汇总并对这19种EEO政策的主要设计参数进行了对比。采纳这些最佳实践能够增强EEO政策的有效性，以最佳的成本效益提高能源效率。全文报告的英文版下载链接：… View Summary +
This document is a summary that presents the best practices identified in a comprehensive RAP report on energy efficiency obligations (EEOs). Governments in various jurisdictions around the world have endeavored to improve end-use energy efficiency, and in some cases also… View Summary +
An energy efficiency obligation (EEO) is a regulatory mechanism that requires obligated parties to meet quantitative energy saving targets by delivering or procuring eligible energy savings produced by implementing approved end-use energy efficiency measures. Governments in various jurisdictions around the… View Summary +
