Double carbon goal proposals make the energy saving and emission reduction requirements further improved, at present, energy consumption in our country will still be mainly by coal, coal power will still be the main power generation way in the long and long-term, which has directly caused the thermal power industry energy saving and emission reduction pressure greater. Based on the analysis of the current development trend and problems of thermal power industry, this paper adopts the carbon emission coefficient method, taking the carbon emission of Shaanxi Province as an example, and studies the influencing factors of carbon emission based on the STIRPAT model. It can be found that population, per capita GDP, the proportion of secondary industry and urbanization rate have a positive impact on the carbon emission of energy consumption. The impact of carbon intensity is negative.
