air pollution; capital; confidence interval; elasticities; energy; fossil fuels; labor; production functions; statistical inference; traffic; China
Abstract:
... As a major consumer of fossil fuels, the transportation sector in Shanghai presents a wide range of problems, including air pollution, noise, and traffic congestion. This study aims to explore the energy substitution effect based on a trans-log production function to evaluate the contribution of each input factor to sectoral output, and reveal the substitution possibilities between capital, labor, ...

Subject:
capital; econometric models; empirical research; energy costs; energy efficiency; issues and policy; labor; prices; production technology; China
Abstract:
... The marketization of energy price is not only an important part of factor pricing reforms but also decisive for energy efficiency improvement. Thus, this study aims to measure factor price distortions and estimate their impact on energy efficiency based on an empirical analysis of 30 provinces of China during 2004–2013 using the stochastic frontier analysis framework. Results yielded three importa ...

Subject:
carbon dioxide; chemical industry; energy; energy industry; greenhouse gas emissions; issues and policy; manufacturing; China
Abstract:
... China's six high-energy intensive industries use more energy than any other industrial sectors, consuming almost 90% of manufacturing energy and more than 50% of national energy and contributing over 50% of national energy-related CO2 emissions. Thus, this study is motivated to identify the drivers of energy-related CO2 emissions change of high-energy intensive industries in China based on the Log ...

Abstract:
... As the most prosperous area and one of China's major economic centers, Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration (YRDUA) shows the largest concentration of adjacent metropolitan areas in the world. Its energy conservation and emissions reduction efforts are critical for developing a low carbon economy in China. Based on panel data of 14 cities from 2003 to 2013, this study estimates the rebound effe ...
