Regional Economic Growth and Carbon Emissions - A Case Study of Anhui Province

Abstract:

This essay tends to probe into the decoupling relationship between economic growth and carbon emissions through structuring the decoupling analysis model. The results show that: In recent years, the decoupling relationship between economic growth and carbon emissions in Anhui province has improved. Through the research about some intermediate variables, we find that the change trend of energy consumption elastic elasticity of carbon emissions and the one of GDP elastic elasticity of carbon emissions are basically the same. Meanwhile, Anhui province is relatively backward in the energy-saving and emission reduction process, carbon emissions growth and energy consumption growth did not achieve effective decoupling, which reflects that this province still has some defects in the adjustment of energy structure, energy saving and emission reduction technology promotion policy etc.
