The impacts of market reform on the market penetration of natural gas-fired electricity and renewable energy in China

Abstract Natural gas-fired electricity (NGFE) is expected to play a more important role in the future due to its characteristics of low pollution, high efficiency and flexibility. However, its development in China is impeded by its high regulation price compared with coal power. Market reform is the...
