Linkage analysis of sectoral CO2 emissions based on the hypothetical extraction method in South Africa

Multiplier Effects of Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions by Input-Output Analysis in South Africa

“…Botha (2013) used IOA method to quantify and explain the total impact of South African Economy Industries in order to understand the interdependence of industries and how changes in one industry might affect other industries. Zhao et al (2015) applied the environmental input-output model with the modified hypothetical extraction method to analyze the carbon linkage among sectors. The results indicated that the total carbon linkage of industrial systems in South Africa in 2005 was 171.32 million tonnes (Mt), which accounts for 81.58 Mt total backward carbon linkage and 89.71 Mt total forward carbon linkage.…”

Prospects of industrial consumption embedded final emissions: a revision on Chinese household embodied industrial emissions

“…Under the MHEM the industrial carbon linkages are decomposed in to net forward (sales), net backward (purchases), internal (intra-sectoral) and the mixed (re-purchases) intermediate industrial CO 2 linkages. Explicitly, the model has been employed to estimate inter-sectoral 14,[18][19][20][21][22][23] and interregional 24,25 industrial carbon and pollutant linkages. Here, the MHEM has been modified to estimate urban and rural household embodied emissions from inter and intra-sectoral consumption.…”

“…The modified hypothetical extraction method 17 is based upon the Cella hypothetical extraction model 40 , under Cella's model, the impact of target sector's inter-sectoral purchases (imports) and sales (exports) is measured through extracting these linkages from an economic system. As the purpose of the original model including its environmental extension is generally to calculate intermediate industrial carbon linkages (see 21 ); it does not distinguish between induced effects (emissions) from different categories of final demand. Likewise, the MHEM 17 and its environmental extensions (see 14,18 ) also do not disintegrate final demand in to its different categories.…”

Prediction of CO2 Emissions Based on the Analysis and Classification of Decoupling

“…The approaches of these studies can be classified into four categories: decomposition analysis [13][14], bottomup analysis [15][16], system optimization [17][18], and econometric approaches [19][20]. Decomposition analysis is the most commonly used method, which encompasses two main decomposition techniques: structural decomposition analysis (SDA) [13] and index decomposition analysis (IDA) [14].…”

“…However, SDA is based on environmental inputoutput analysis [21], which is a widely-accepted method for quantifying sectoral CO 2 emissions considering both direct effects from the production process and indirect effects from the entire supply chain [22]. For the method of bottom-up analysis, Di Cosmo et al [15] explored the effects of emission allowances on CO 2 emissions in the European Union, and Zhao et al [16] examined the influence of technological progress on CO 2 emissions by the input-output model in Britain. The third method has been utilized to study the major influencing factors of CO 2 emissions for the European food industry [17], and explore the effect of renewable energy on CO 2 emissions of Japan [18].…”
