Carbon dioxide emissions, urbanization level, and industrial structure: empirical evidence from North China

Abstract: This paper aims to examine the nexus among carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions, urbanization level and industrial structure in North China over the period 2004-2019, according to an expanded Cobb-Douglas production function. The panel econometric techniques are employed to complete the empirical analysis, including cross-sectional correlation test, panel unit root test, panel cointegration test and panel Granger causality test. The empirical results support the long-term equilibrium relationship among CO 2 emissi… Show more

“…In Model (4), the addition of TE reduces carbon emissions by 0.09% more than in Model (3) when the industrial structure upgrading index increases by 1%. Similarly, Model (6) reduces carbon emissions by 0.06% more than Model (5). It reflects that the government's increased financial expenditure on science and technology will help promote the upgrading of industrial structure and reduce carbon emissions.…”

“…In 2019, the total energy consumption of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei was 481 million tons of standard coal, accounting for 9.84% of the national energy consumption, of which Hebei Province ranked third with 325 million tons of traditional coal. A large amount of energy consumption and exhaust emissions have caused severe air pollution, making Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei one of the areas with the sharpest contradiction between economic development and resources and the environment in China [5]. To this end, in the Outline of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development Plan, breakthroughs should be made in critical areas such as industrial upgrading and transfer, ecological and environmental protection in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, and the deployment is planned.…”

“…International experience shows [18,19] that in the primary stage of urban expansion, the industrial structure of a country or region is dominated by the primary industry, and the demand for energy use is not significant, which has no significant impact on carbon emissions. In the development stage of urban expansion, the proportion of primary industry continues to decline, the secondary industry becomes the dominant industry, and the demand for energy increases dramatically, leading to a rapid increase in carbon emissions.…”

“…Along with economic development, a large amount of CO 2 emitted by fossil energy consumption has caused severe ecological problems. The conflict between economic development, resource use, and environmental protection needs to be solved urgently (Wang R. et al, 2019;Siqin et al, 2022). This paper studies the CEI of Yangtze River Economic Belt, which is important for enhancing low-carbon economic development and reducing regional carbon emissions.…”
