Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to the climate and energy challenge, carbon reduction is expected to play an important role in environmental protection. In this research, we characterize the relationship between carbon emissions and petroleum energy consumption in Heilongjiang Province of China. This article calculates carbon emissions of petroleum energy consumption of Heilongjiang Province from 2005 to 2012. Moreover, it analyzes the gray correlation between the carbon emissions of petroleum energy consumption and its selected influence factors. Analysis of the results covered the influence petroleum energy consumption effect on the carbon emissions. Accordingly, we acquire GDP of Heilongjiang Province was driven mainly by petroleum energy consumption which was responsible for carbon emissions. In order to change this situation, utilizing clean energy, strengthening government management and advocating low carbon consumption in Heilongjiang Province are necessary in response to reducing carbon emissions.
