Global warming and harsh environment make China have to accelerate the pace of low-carbon economy. Promoting Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) may be the significant ways to reduce CO₂ emissions. A recursive dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model will be constructed to explore respectively the impacts of EVs and CCS on China's macroeconomics, environmental quality and energy demand, under 6 simulation scenarios. The simulation results show that the promotion policy at a basic-level with CCS can effectively reduce CO₂ emission and alleviate economic loss. Promoting the process of electric vehicles will lead to an economic loss, although it will make carbon emission peak occur in 2030. The basic-level promotion will have a better performance than the higher in carbon intensity: 0.073 and 0.079 kg-CO₂/RMB in 2050. Moreover, CCS technology with …
