Carbon intensity of electricity generation and CDM baseline: case studies of three Chinese provinces

Local Climate Governance in China

“…How does the state-market relationship within CDM governance look at the local level? Although research on this topic is so far scarce (it focuses on CDM project implementation -see, for example Zhang et al, 2005), initial investigations seem to confirm strong state intervention in the CDM at the local level in China (Qi et al, 2008: 394).…”

Environmental regulations and emissions trading in China

“…Sizable studies (Dudek and Palmisano, 1987;Spofford et al, 1996;Yang and Yu, 1996;Ellerman et al, 1997;Wang et al, 2002;Wu, 2005;Zhang et al, 2005;Zhu et al, 2006) have already devoted considerable attention to this process of learning. The conclusions from some of these studies are insightful and would be useful in designing emissions trading schemes in China's power industry.…”

Estimating Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Potential: An Assessment of Models and Methods for the Power Sector

“…Due to the cost and effort of a project-by-project approach, numerous authors have emphasized the use of MPB methodologies for the electrical sector [1,10,12,20]. It is these MPB methods that are investigated in this article.…”
