Supply-side structural effect on carbon emissions in China

Structural Decomposition Analysis of Carbon Emissions and Policy Recommendations for Energy Sustainability in Xinjiang

“…Peters et al conducted a structural decomposition analysis (SDA) to analyze how changes in technology, economic structure, urbanization, and lifestyles affected China's growing carbon emissions from 1992 to 2002 [15], and found that infrastructure construction and urban household consumption had played big effects on total emissions, while technology and efficiency improvements have only partially offset emissions growth. Using the IO-SDA (input-output structural decomposition analysis), Zhang examined the supply-side structure effect on the production-related carbon emissions in China from 1992 to 2005 [16], and Liu et al evaluated the energy embodied in the international trade of China during the same period [17]; results show that increasing exports of energy-intensive goods enlarged energy embodied in trade, mainly due to the rapid growth of manufacturing sectors. Zhu et al adopted IO-SDA method to investigate the indirect carbon emissions from residential consumption in China from 1992 to 2005 [18], results show that the rising residential consumption level accelerated the growth of residential indirect carbon emissions.…”

Study on the Stability and Entropy Complexity of an Energy-Saving and Emission-Reduction Model with Two Delays

“…In fact, the energy-saving and emission-reduction system is a complex nonlinear system, which involves the interactions between a variety of factors such as energy-saving and emission-reduction, carbon emissions, economic growth, energy efficiency, carbon tax and energy intensity, and so forth [3][4][5]. In view of this, a novel three-dimensional energy-saving and emission-reduction chaotic system is proposed [6].…”

Efficient auction mechanisms for carbon emission trading scheme

“…Since then, global warming and the associated carbon dioxide emissions have been of key environmental focus (Zhang, 2010). To abate carbon emissions, the Third Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC enacted the first international climate treaty -Kyoto Protocol.…”
