City-level final energy consumption dataset in China

The role of China is increasingly pivotal in climate change mitigation, and the formulation of energy conservation and emission reduction policies requires city-level information. The effectiveness of national policy implementation is contingent upon the support and involvement of local governments. Accurate data on final energy consumption is vital to formulate and implement city-level energy transitions and energy conservation and emission reduction policies. However, there is a dearth of data sources pertaining to China’s city-level final energy consumption. To address these gaps, we developed computational modeling techniques along with top-down and downscaling methods to estimate China’s city-level final energy consumption. In this way, we compiled a final energy consumption inventory for 331 Chinese cities from 2005 to 2021, covering seven economic sectors, 30 fossil fuels, and four clean power sources. Moreover, we discussed the validity of the estimation results from multiple perspectives to enhance estimation accuracy. This dataset can be utilized for analysis in various cutting-edge research fields such as energy transition dynamics, transition risk management strategies, and policy formulation processes.

中国在气候变化减缓（climate change mitigation）工作中的作用愈发关键，而节能减排（energy conservation and emission reduction）政策的制定亟需城市级别的相关信息。国家政策的实施成效，有赖于地方政府的支持与参与。精准的终端能源消费（final energy consumption）数据，对于制定并推行城市级能源转型及节能减排政策至关重要。然而，当前针对中国城市级终端能源消费的数据来源仍较为匮乏。为填补这一研究空白，我们结合计算建模（computational modeling）技术与自上而下（top-down）及降尺度（downscaling）方法，对中国城市级终端能源消费进行了估算。据此，我们构建了2005至2021年中国331个城市的终端能源消费清单，涵盖7个经济部门、30种化石燃料以及4种清洁能源。此外，我们还从多维度探讨了估算结果的有效性，以提升估算精度。本数据集可应用于能源转型动态、转型风险管理策略以及政策制定流程等多个前沿研究领域的分析工作。
