Carbon emission trading schemeChina's pilot ETScorporate valuedifference-in-differences modelWe empirically investigate the effect of emissions trading scheme (ETS) on the corporate performance of Chinese listed firms from 2010 to 2016, treating China's pilot ETS as a quasi-natural experiment. Our ...
China's carbon dioxide emissions have been rising rapidly since 2002, driven by the acceleration in energy consumption, as shown in the previous chapter. Between 2007 and 2008 China overtook the USA to become the largest emitter of CO2 in the world from energy use (BP, 2010). Although per ...
Accurate, long-term, full-coverage carbon dioxide (CO2) data in units of prefecture-level cities are necessary for evaluations of CO2 emission reductions in China, which has become one of the world’s largest carbon-emitting countries. This study develops a novel method to match satellite-based...
2021 marks the first year of China's 14th Five-Year Plan period. China has vowed to reach a carbon emission peak by 2030 and be a carbon-neutral country by 2060, while pushing reforms that promote green and low-carbon energy. At the same time, China also said that it ...
To meet its targets, China has set tiered provincial-level carbon emission caps for its PARMs based on factors such as their development stage, resource endowment, strategic positioning, and eco-environmental protection. It ...
One of the main reasons for China’s high level of emissions is the reliance of coal in itspower mix. Coal is the most polluting of energy sources, and accounts for roughly 70 percent of China’s electricity generation. In 2020, China announced an ambitious plan to become carbon neutral by...
The data used for this empirical study includes data on carbon emissions and energy consumption of different sectors in each municipality from the CEADS database (China carbon emission accounts databases)Footnote 1, and data on GDP, population, and added value in different sectors from the National...
Since the 18th CPC National Congress, China has actively promoted and led the global negotiation process on climate change that resulted in the eventual signing of the Paris Climate Agreement. China also made the solemn commitment to peak its carbon emission by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by...
In the past decade, China has put a lot of efforts into developing renewable energy. To achieve the goal to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and reach carbon neutrality by 2060, the country continues to improve its new-energy installed capacity and boost
