Abstract: The rapid growth of NO
x
emissions in china is mainly due to intensive fossil fuel consumption. In order to control NO
x
emissions, a multiyear NO
x
emission inventory was established by a bottom-up approach for the period 2000–2010. The results showed that NO
x
emissions increased by 2.1 times from 11.81 million tons (Mt) in 2000 to 24.33 Mt in 2010. We found that NO
x
emissions had exceeded SO2 emissions in 2009 by comparison with their emission trends. We also found that the unbalanced NO
x
emissions in Eastern china and Western china are mainly due to the different gross regional product and industrial structure. Accounting for 70% of total energy consumption in china, coal is the largest NO
x
emission source among all the fossil fuels. In addition, the increased use of diesel and gasoline has spurred the increase of NO
x
emissions from the transportation sector. Manufacturing, electricity production, and transportation together composed about 90% of the national NO
x
emissions. Meanwhile, energy consumption and NO
x
emissions in china are predicted to be 3908.5 Mt standard coal equivalent (SCE) and 19.7 Mt in 2020 with this scenario analysis, respectively. To achieve a desired NO
x
reduction target, china should take strict measures to control NO
x
emissions, such as improvement in reduction technology, promulgation of new emission standards, and joint control by various Chinese provinces.
