Power sector is responsible for about 40% of the total CO 2 emissions in the world and plays a leading role in climate change mitigation. In this study, measures that lower CO 2 emissions from the supply side, demand side, and power grid are discussed, based on which, an integrated optimization model of CO 2 mitigation (IOCM) is proposed. Virtual energy, referring to energy saving capacity in both demand side and the power grid, together with conventional energy in supply side, is unified planning for IOCM. Consequently, the optimal plan of energy distribution, considering both economic benefits and mitigation benefits, is figured out through the application of IOCM. The results indicate that development of demand side management (DSM) and smart grid can make great contributions to CO 2 mitigation of power sector in China by reducing the CO 2 emissions by 10.02% and 12.59%, respectively, in 2015, and in 2020.
