| Abstract | ||
| Data of fuel consumption for diesel to run conventional power stations of the Public Electricity Corporation Hadhramout Coast branch (Al Rayyan, Khalf, and Mo'nowara were collected monthly within the period from 2000 to 2010. The results revealed that in 2003 and 2000 saw the highest and lowest total and annual average of greenhouse gas emissions respectively. The Rayyan electric station witnessed in 2010 and 2000 the highest and lowest annual emissions of (CO2،CH4،N2O), while Khalf station recorded the highest annual emissions in 2003 (for CO2) and 2006 (for CH4, N2O), In 2008 registered the lowest annual average emission. The highest and lowest annual emission for station Mo'nowara was in the years 2006 and 2000 respectively, reaching the highest and lowest value for greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, N2O) Rayyan station ranked first in total and cumulative average for the period 2000 to 2010 for greenhouse gases emissions (CO2, CH4, N2O), followed by Khalf station and Station of Mo'nowara. The results of equivalent emissions of carbon dioxide (E CO2) that in 2003 and 2000 were the highest and lowest total annual average emitted, at about 57,581 and 19194, 16439 and 5480 metric tons. Also the results show varying equivalent (E CO2) from conventional electric stations, the highest emissions yearly in 2010 (Al Rayyan station) and 2006 (Khalf and Mo'nowara stations), In 2000the lowest emissions registered in (Al Rayyan and Mo'nowara stations) and 2008 in (Khalf station). The study illustrated that, 2003 witnessed the highest rate of per capita emissions equivalent (E CO2) from the electricity sector of the study area (coast of Hadhramout), where reached 137 kg / capita, whereas the year 2000 the lowest rate per capita reached about 44 kg / capita. | ||
