Decomposition of Energy-Related CO2 Emission over 2001 and 2011 in Manufacturing Industry of China

Article Preview

Abstract:

Manufacturing industry is developing fast in China, leading to a large amount of energy consumption and CO2 emission. This paper presents a decomposition analysis of energy-related CO2 emission in manufacturing industry in China for the period of 2001-2011. The complete decomposition method developed by Sun is used to analyze the effect of four factors: CO2 intensity, energy intensity, structure change and economy development. The results show that economy development has the largest positive effect and energy intensity has the most negative impact on CO2 emission of Chinas manufacture industry. While the structure change of manufacturing industrial decreases its CO2 emission to a certain extent and the CO2 intensity increases its CO2 emission slightly, but both of them have large potentials in CO2 reduction.
