Fig. 4: Carbon emissions and power costs to 2030 under four scenarios.

From: Rapid cost decrease of renewables and storage accelerates the decarbonization of China’s power system

Fig. 4

a Carbon emissions and b Power costs are shown in the business as usual scenario (B), the low-cost renewables scenario (R), the carbon constraints scenario (C50), and the deep carbon constraints scenario (C80), respectively. Power costs in the R scenario and the C50 scenario are 11% and 6% lower than that of the BAU scenario in 2030, respectively. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
