The Study On The Decomposition And Initial Allocation Of Carbon Emission For Pilot Provinces

Global climate change is becoming the biggest environmental problem to humanity, greenhouse gas emissions cause climate continue to rise. To stop global warming is becoming an urgent problem.The cap-and-trade mechanism is an effective way to solve this problem, and the initial allocation of carbon emission is the most basic, and important issue.With the acceleration of economic development and the process of internationalization of C hina, we recognize the importance of environmental issues increasingly. By the end of 2012, C hina has successively to establish pilot carbon emissions trading in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangdong, Hubei, Chongqing and Shenzhen, which as the first carbon emissions trading pilot provinces. The pilot provinces have set up carbon emissions trading markets actively.This paper consists of six chapters. The first chapter introduces the background research, indicates the object of study, and review of the relevant literature. Chapter two describes the EU’s emissions trading system(EU ETS), points out its shortcomings. Then we briefly describe the pilot provinces’ carbon emissions trading and comparative analysis with the EU ETS.The third chapter analyzes the driving factors of carbon emissions. According to the carbon emission data of the whole country and six pilot regions of mandatory carbon emission reduction, we study the driving factors of energy carbon emissions from the energy structure, energy efficiency and economic development. Further, we do empirical analysis on driving factors of carbon emission by using the chain growth rate data. The results showed that carbon emission in energy efficiency is more sensitive than on economic development. We verify the reasonableness of our carbon emissions carbon emissions mechanism indirectly.In chapter four we construct two initial allocation models in a duopoly market to study the effects of two different distributions. The first model is based on governance; the other is based on emissions. Finally, we compare these two distributions through numerical analysis.We analyze the seven pilot provinces incorporate industry emission reduction efforts in chapter five. We selected three typical industries: the chemical industry, nonferrous metals industry and the steel industry. We build the regressin equation for empirical analysis by using panel data. The results show that companies have increased their investment in R&D. Finally we analyse the residuals.The sixth chapter is a summary of the paper.
