摘要：Concern about global warming calls for an advanced approach for designing an energy system to reduce carbon emissions as well as to secure energy security for each *** energy systems tend to introduce different technologies with high conversion efficiency,leading to a higher average *** energy systems can be achieved not by an aggregate form of conversion technologies but by an innovative system design *** concept of LCS(low carbon society) is a unique approach having multi-dimensional considerations such as social,economic and environmental *** LCS aims at an extensive restructuring of worldwide energy supply/demand network system by not only replacing the conventional parts with the new ones,but also integrating all the necessary components and designing absolutely different energy *** a core tool for the LCS design,energy-economic models are applied to show feasible solutions in future with alternatives such as renewable resources,combined heat and power,and smart grid *** can introduce changes in energy markets,technology learning in capacity,and penetration of innovative technologies,leading to an optimum system configuration under priority *** paper describes recent trials of energy models application related to waste-to-energy,clean coal,transportation and rural *** the modelling approach is still under investigation,the output clearly shows possible options having variety of technologies and linkages between supply and demand *** of the LCS means an energy systems design with the modelling approach,which gives solution for complex systems,choices among technologies,technology feasibility,R&D targets,and what we need to start.
