“…A notable example is the west–east natural gas transmission project, which can transmit 42 billion cubic meters of natural gas from west to east every year . The exploitation and transmission of natural resources have proved beneficial to China's development, but their role in promoting the sustainable development of western regions has been much more questionable .…”

Summary In this study, an interactive fuzzy chance‐constrained resolution (IFCR) method is developed for supporting energy systems planning (ESP) under uncertainty. IFCR can not only tackle multiple uncertainties presented as fuzzy membership functions and probability distributions using an interactive resolution method, but also enable decision makers to seek optimal solutions between satisfaction degree of objective and feasibility of constraints. Then, an IFCR‐ESP model is formulated for energy systems of Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture (abbreviated as Bazhou). Results provide decision makers with a complete view of the relationship between uncertain inputs and solutions. Policy‐based solutions concerning energy consumption, electricity generation, capacity expansion, pollutant emission, and system cost are analyzed, which can help decision makers to identify desired strategies for ESP. Results indicate that transitioning from the conventional energy system to a sustainable one is associated to policy support, resources availability, energy supply security, and capital investment; clean energy policy (e.g. shift from coal to gas) is an effective way to facilitate the local energy system development in a sustainable manner; the solutions under different feasibility degrees can help decision makers to conduct in‐depth analyses of tradeoffs between system cost and constraint‐violation risk in an interactive way.

“…These studies focused on national scenarios for China in a global context without exploring regional disparities in China's economic development, industry structure, and population. While research on regional disparities in China is available, such as regional disparities in energy supply and consumption [24], these are not yet discussed in global context [25]. Furthermore the existing studies represent either the TD or the BU perspective.…”

“…In China, on account of the national energy policy, considering fuel cost, energy security, and environment safety, there is an encouragement for coal‐fired power stations to burn inferior coals such as anthracite and lean coal, and now, the share is nearly 40% in the total power station consumption. Anthracite has the V daf lower than 10%, and lean coal has the V daf between 10% and 20%.…”

“…Many scholars have investigated low-NO x combustion technology and obtained results that are important to the operating regulations and combustion system retrofits of power stations, as well as the design of new types of boilers. [6][7][8][9] In China, on account of the national energy policy, considering fuel cost, energy security, and environment safety, [10] there is an encouragement for coal-fired power stations to burn inferior coals such as anthracite and lean coal, and now, the share is nearly 40% in the total power station consumption. Anthracite has the V daf lower than 10%, and lean coal has the V daf between 10% and 20%.…”

Laboratory experiments and industrial‐scale experiments on 300‐MW low‐volatile coal‐fired boiler were performed under deep air staging. Aerodynamic characteristics, gas temperature and concentrations, furnace temperature, and boiler efficiency were measured for various secondary air mass flow rates. Under deep air staging, a steady central recirculation zone forms near the burner nozzle. With a decreasing flow rate, the swirl intensity and maximum axial, radial, and tangential velocities decrease; between X/D = 0–0.8, the velocity decay rate decreases, and the relative reverse flow rate decreases. In the early stage, the maximum axial mixing rate decreases; the primary air concentration increases slightly. A decrease in secondary air‐box damper opening decreases the gas temperature and its increasing rate, generating a farther ignition position. In the initial stage, the O2 consumption rate and CO concentration increase, while the NOx concentration decreases. In the later stage, O2 concentration remains almost constant below 2%, and the CO concentrations exceed 15 000 ppm, which restrain NOx formation notably. Near the water‐cooled wall, flue gas temperature varies slightly, and O2 concentration exceeds 3%. Along radial direction 1.5364 ≤ R0/D0 ≤ 1.8708, the O2 concentrations are below 2%, and CO concentrations exceed 6000 ppm. A decreasing damper opening decreases furnace temperature in the primary combustion zone slightly. NOx emission decreases from 833.4 to 769.9 mg/m3 (6% O2), unburnt carbon increases from 5.18% to 6.84%, and boiler efficiency decreases from 91.53% to 90.99%.
