Abstract:The electricity-carbon model is a tool used to analyze the carbon emission situation of the power system and its interrelationships with energy structure, economy, technology, and other factors. It can accurately assess the carbon emission situation of different power generation technologies at various stages and helps the power industry to formulate a scientific and reasonable energy transition strategy, which is of great significance. This study takes 38 ceramic enterprises as research objects, establishes five types of electricity-carbon models, and explores the fitting and prediction accuracy of each model. The results show that: In the calibration based on the univariate primary polynomial linear regression electricity-carbon model of 30 ceramic enterprises, 16 of them have a deviation of less than 5% between predicted and verified emissions; 8 of them have a deviation of 5%-10%, and 6 of them have a deviation of more than 10%.For the univariate quadratic polynomial linear regression electricity-carbon model, out of 32 ceramic enterprises, 9 have a deviation of less than 5% between predicted and verified emissions; 9 have a deviation of 5%-10%, and 14 have a deviation of more than 10%. The average deviation value is 12.88%.The calibration results based on the carbon emissions source decomposition of the electricity-carbon model and the linear regression of a one-dimensional polynomial electricity-carbon model are more or less the same.In the calibration of the linear electricity-carbon model based on multi-source data, for 35 ceramic enterprises, 19 have a deviation within 5% between predicted and verified emissions; 8 have a deviation between 5% and 10%, and 8 have a deviation of more than 10%. The average deviation value is 8.65%.The accuracy of the carbon emissions from various electricity-carbon models was verified, providing a reference for enterprises when choosing electricity-carbon models for accounting.

Relying on the technical advantages and experience of the Fujian Metrology Institute in previous carbon emission verification, this paper selects 38 ceramic enterprises in Fujian Province as research objects and establishes enterprise-level electricity-carbon models. By combining multi-source data, we constructed a univariate polynomial linear regression model, a univariate quadratic polynomial linear regression model, and other forms of "multi-data-carbon" models (such as electricity/gas-carbon models). The correlation coefficients of the variables are used to assess the degree of correlation between the independent variable influencing factors and carbon emissions. The technical roadmap is illustrated in Figure 3.1.The enterprise-level electricity-carbon models are validated using the data from the following year. If deviations are found, the reasons are confirmed through multiple methods, such as telephone communication, on-site research, and historical analysis. Corrective parameters are then set for the enterprise-level electricity-carbon models.
Polynomial regression, a method of regression analysis that examines the polynomials between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables, is called Polynomial Regression. If there is only one independent variable, it is called univariate polynomial regression; if there are more than one independent variables, it is called multivariate polynomial regression [18] , In this study 4.1 uses a univariate polynomial regression equation and 4.2 is a univariate quadratic polynomial regression equation with the formula:
One-variable polynomial regression equations:
|

One-variable polynomial regression equations:

where Y is the dependent variable.
X is the independent variable.
is the intercept term (the predicted value of Y when X = 0).
is the primary term coefficient, which represents the linear effect of X on Y .
is the quadratic term coefficient, which represents the effect of X 2 on Y .
is the error term, representing random fluctuations not captured by the model.
Extract the enterprise's respective corresponding existing historical year to 2020 annual electricity and carbon emissions data, in which the electricity data as the independent variable, carbon emissions data as the dependent variable, to establish a one-dimensional linear electricity and carbon model, and fit the linear curve. Take enterprise 1 as an example, as shown in Figure 4.1.
In accordance with the above method to extract the linear correlation coefficients of the fitted curves of 38 enterprises in turn, it was found that the linear relationship between electricity and carbon emissions of 27 enterprises was poor (the correlation coefficient of the degree of linear fit was less than 0.9), and it was considered that the data of the abnormal years should be excluded and re-modeled, and the linear correlation coefficients of the extracted to the 38 enterprises were as shown in Table 4.1.

By analyzing the correlation coefficients of the coupled mapping fit between electricity and emissions of each emission source, it can be found that if the correlation coefficients of the coupled mapping fit between electricity and emissions of each emission source are high, the correlation coefficients of the coupled mapping fit between electricity and total emissions are also high; the correlation coefficients of the coupled mapping fit between electricity and emissions of the emission sources with a large percentage of carbon emissions have a large effect on the results of the coupled mapping fit between electricity and total emissions and the other way around, it is small, and this also This explains that some enterprises will cause the linear fitting effect of electricity and total emissions to deteriorate due to changes in the production status of some emission sources, thus affecting the prediction bias accuracy of the electricity-carbon model.
The coefficients of the coupled mapping fitting function of electricity data and carbon emission data are extracted and summed respectively, resulting in the fitting coefficients of the indirect coupled mapping function of electricity and carbon emissions, from which the fitting equations of the linear electricity-carbon model based on the decomposition of carbon emission sources are obtained as shown in Table 4.6.

Through comparison, it is found that the fitting equations of the linear electricity-carbon model based on the decomposition of carbon emission sources are consistent with the one-dimensional linear fitting equations of the direct coupling of electricity-carbon , which is mainly due to the fact that the independent variables of each linear equation based on the decomposition of carbon emission sources are all the data of electricity, and the use of the direct cumulative is in fact to add up the slopes and the intercepts of the individual linear equations correspondingly, and the final obtained fitting equations of the linear electricity-carbon model based on the decomposition of carbon emission sources are consistent with the one-dimensional linear fitting equations of the direct coupling of electricity-carbon . The resulting linear electricity-carbon model based on carbon emission source decomposition is consistent with the one-dimensional linear fitting equation for the direct coupling of electricity-carbon .
Establish the net purchased electricity generated carbon emissions and electricity data of the fitting relationship equation and deducted from the electricity indirect emissions of other carbon emissions and electricity data of the fitting relationship equation, which in addition to electricity emissions of other carbon emissions and electricity data of the fitting relationship equation through the intermediate amount of data (ceramics production) to establish the relationship between the electricity data and the carbon emissions data, respectively, to obtain the fitting coefficients of the two parts of the fitted model fitting coefficients.

As can be seen from the table, except for 2 enterprises that could not be corrected, the rest of the enterprises have been corrected by the model, and the linear relationship of the electricity-carbon model of 36 enterprises is better (the correlation coefficient of the degree of linear fit is greater than 0.9) there are 35 enterprises, which accounts for 97.2% of the total number of enterprises, with the highest value of 1.000, the lowest value of 0.7894, and the average value reaches 0.9633.
Thirty-five enterprises with good linear relationship between multi-parameter electric carbon and predictable emissions were selected to carry out electricity-carbon model prediction and verification analysis. Based on the verified electricity data of 2021, the emissions in 2021 were predicted by multi-parameter electric carbon and compared with the deviation of the actual verified carbon emissions. 19 of the 35 ceramic enterprises had a deviation of less than 5% between the predicted emissions and the verified emissions, 8 had a deviation of 5%-10%, and 8 had a deviation of more than 10%, with an average value of deviation of 8.65%.

A horizontal comparison of different electricity-carbon model calibration methods is made. According to the order of testing methods, the calibration of the linear regression electricity-carbon model with a one-variable polynomial is method 1, the calibration of the linear regression electricity-carbon model with a one-variable quadratic polynomial is method 2, the calibration of the electricity-carbon model based on the decomposition of the carbon emission sources is method 3, the calibration of the linear electricity-carbon model based on the production correlation quantity is method 4, and the calibration of the linear electricity-carbon model based on the multi-source data is method 5. The main analyzed data of each calibration method is shown in the table below.

Through comparison, it is found that, using the simplest method 1 as the benchmark, the fitted linearity of the electricity-carbon model established by method 2 is not significantly improved, and the prediction deviation is only reduced in the paper-making industry; method 3 is consistent with the essence of method 1, and the results of the fitted linearity and the prediction deviation results are the same as those of method 1, but the method has a certain degree of interpretativeness; method 4 establishes a certain improvement of fitted linearity of the electricity-carbon model compared with method 1; method 5 establishes a certain improvement of the electricity-carbon model fit linearity compared with method 1, and the prediction deviation is reduced. The fitted linearity of the electricity-carbon model established by Method 4 is somewhat improved compared with Method 1; the fitted linearity of the electricity-carbon model established by Method 5 is somewhat improved compared with Method 1, and the prediction deviation is somewhat reduced, which is mainly due to the fact that the method introduces other emission source data, which is conducive to increasing the proportion of the independent variable in the electricity-carbon model, and reducing the impact of power emission fluctuations on linearity. It can be seen that Method 5 is a better solution for the calibration of the electricity-carbon model.
In terms of the difficulty of obtaining data related to carbon emissions, Methods 1 and 2 are the easiest, requiring only electricity and total emissions data; Method 3 is the most difficult, but the calibration results are consistent with Method 1, but Method 3 can be used to analyze and explain the reasons for the poor linearity of the electricity-carbon model and the large prediction bias in some enterprises; Methods 4 and 5, in addition to electricity and total emissions data, need to be combined with the industry's actual situation, to obtain the data of production-related quantities or other emission sources. In addition to electricity and total emissions data, Methods 4 and 5 need to take into account the actual situation of the industry and obtain data on production-related quantities or other emission sources. The difficulty of obtaining data is general, and the production data is more difficult to obtain than the emission source data, because some of the data on production-related quantities (e.g., production output, etc.) may be obtained through statistics or calculations, and internal confidentiality may be involved. The degree of difficulty in obtaining data from each method: Method 1 = Method 2 < Method 5 < Method 4 < Method 3. Meanwhile, for enterprises with large deviations in prediction, through on-site research and comprehensive analysis of historical verification, the main reasons are consistent with the reasons for the poor linear relationship, i.e., first, changes in the production situation, such as a longer period of shutdowns, intermittent production, the addition or subtraction of production lines, and so on; and second, changes in production processes, such as the type or specification of the products produced, such as the type or specification of the products produced. The second is changes in the production process, such as large changes in the types or specifications of the products produced, and changes in energy consumption due to major technological reforms.
