Multi-sectoral decomposition in decoupling industrial growth from carbon emissions in the developed Jiangsu Province, China

Examining the effects of urbanization and industrialization on carbon dioxide emission: Evidence from China's provincial regions

“…According to the previous research, urbanization can impact energy use and emissions through multiple channels: transforming production [14,26], changing consumer behavior [31], providing public infrastructures and influencing transport service [15,16]. The key point is that the characteristics of urbanization effect on carbon dioxide emissions vary across different industrial sectors of an economy.…”

“…Besides, some studies argued that the reduction in CO 2 emissions can be attributed to the reduced energy intensity and fuel switching and renewable energy penetration. Meanwhile, some researches attached great importance to the adjustment of industrial structure for the process of developing low-carbon emission industries [14,21,24].…”

Decoupling Analysis of China’s Product Sector Output and Its Embodied Carbon Emissions—An Empirical Study Based on Non-Competitive I-O and Tapio Decoupling Model

“…Chen and Zhu (2014) used the decoupling methods of OECD and Tapio to analysis the relationship between Shanghai industrial economic growth and carbon emissions [36]. Lu et al (2015) showed the industry of Jiangsu was in a weak decoupling state from 2005 to 2012 [37]. combined the decoupling method with LMDI decomposition methods to analyze the decoupling relationship between economic growth and energy consumption in China from 1991 to 2012, and the factors contributing to carbon emissions.…”

Decoupling and Decomposition Analysis of Carbon Emissions from Industry: A Case Study from China

“…As a result, carbon currently contributes approximately 63% of the gaseous radiative force contributing to climate change. Atmospheric carbon had increased to 390.5 ppm by 2011, according to the IPCC reports [3][4][5], thus exceeding pre-industrial levels by approximately 40% [6]. China has surpassed the United States as the world's biggest carbon emitter.…”
