However, concerns exist that electrification may increase emissions while coal power dominates. Using a global climate model, we explore electrification scenarios with varying coal phase-out timelines and assess their climate impact on China’s sectors. A 10-year delay in coal phase-out could increase global peak temperature by about 0.02°C. However, on a sectoral level, there is no evidence of significant additional emissions from electrification, even with a slower coal phase-out. This challenges the sequential “order of abatement” view, showing electrification can start before the power sector is fully decarbonized. As long as power emission intensity drops below 150 gCO<sub>2</sub>/kWh by 2040, electrification can substantially reduce the carbon footprint of buildings, steel, and transport services, and along with energy-efficiency measures, it can avoid approximately 0.035°C of additional global warming by 2060.","PeriodicalId":343,"journal":{"name":"Joule","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":39.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143905446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
