These seven countries together generated 58% of global electricity and they are responsible for more than two-thirds of global CO 2 emissions from electricity generation in 2005. The analysis shows production effect as the major factor responsible for rise in CO 2 emissions during the period 1990...
CO2 emission factor obtained from IPCC (2006), and from previous studies. The calculation of all energy consumed and produce CO2 emissions of so-called carbon footprint. Calculation of CO2 emissions using the equation LEAP. From these calculations can be known how much CO2 emissions resulting ...
Using the Irish All-Island power system as a case-study, data on the observed dispatch of each large generator for the years 2008 to 2012 was used to estimate a marginal emissions factor of 0.547 kgCO2/kWh. Selected storage operation scenarios were used to estimate storage emissions factors ...
The decline of China’s export emissions from 2007 to 2012 was mainly due to production structure changes and energy efficiency gains. Growth in export volume (i.e. the product of export per capita and population) was the strongest factor which drove China’s increase in export emissions. The...
Considering the remarkable contribution of nuclear sources, it is worth exploring the plausible effects of nuclear energy on the environment to recommend suitable policies for the present and future. Another prominent factor that can play a vital role in curtailing the carbon footprint globally is ...
Another major contributing factor to CO2production is the planning of fossil fuels, from which many countries in the world produce electricity [5]. Therefore, it can be concluded that the elimination of vehicles with internal combustion engines, in favour of electric vehicles, could result in a ...
Therefore, this paper also adopts the approach to estimate CO2 emissions with the use of energy usage data: CO2 emissions = ∑i Ei × NCVi × CEFi × COFi × (44/12) (12) where Ei denotes the final usage of energy source i; NCVi (net caloric value), CEFi (CO2 emission factor),...

The importance of human capital for long-run economic growth has been emphasized for a long in the literature (Becker1964). In modern economic growth theories, human capital remains an important factor of production in explaining cross-country growth differences (Barro1991). In addition to these ...
