How heterogeneous technological progress promotes industrial structure upgrading and industrial carbon efficiency? Evidence from China's industries

Jianmin You et al.

Summary: The bottleneck in improving China's industrial carbon efficiency lies in the unequal contributions of carbon emission technology and energy technology, as well as neutral technology and capital-based technology. Clarifying how heterogeneous technological progress enhances carbon efficiency through industrial structural upgrading is crucial to overcoming this bottleneck. The study examines the effects of four levels of technological progress on carbon efficiency under two technical classifications and provides insights into the suitable path for promoting China's industrial carbon efficiency. The research findings demonstrate that energy technology has a greater direct effect on improving carbon efficiency compared to carbon emission technology, and neutral technology is more effective than capital-embodied technology. Indirectly, progress in capital-embodied technology enhances industrial structures and carbon efficiency, while progress in energy technology positively and significantly impacts carbon efficiency through green upgrading of industrial structures. Additionally, the level of industrial development, government environmental governance, and energy structure also play a role in carbon efficiency.

Characterizing regional building energy consumption under joint climatic and socioeconomic impacts

Haiyan Duan et al.

Summary: This study tracks and analyzes the building energy consumption in 24 provincial regions of China, revealing the influence of climatic and socioeconomic conditions on energy consumption. The results show that energy consumption is high in the material preparation and operation stages of the building process, and climatic and socioeconomic conditions have a decisive impact on these differences. The findings of this research can provide more relevant considerations for the formulation of regional building energy conservation policies.

Carbon peak and its mitigation implications for China in the post-pandemic era

Jiandong Chen et al.

Summary: This study comprehensively analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, changing emission networks, and carbon intensity reduction on China's carbon peak and mitigation efforts. The findings show that China is likely to reach its carbon peak between 2021 and 2026, but most cities and counties have not yet achieved this target and further measures are needed.

Energy endowment, industrial structure upgrading, and CO2 emissions in China: Revisiting resource curse in the context of carbon emissions

Linfei Wu et al.

Summary: The green transformation of energy-rich areas is crucial for low-carbon sustainable development. The study finds that energy endowment and industrial structure have significant impacts on carbon emissions, indicating the existence of a "resource curse." Upgrading industrial production factors and industrial level can help reduce carbon emissions effectively.

Decoupling without outsourcing? How China's consumption-based CO2 emissions have plateaued

Zhifu Mi et al.

Summary: The shift in China's economy to the "new normal" since 2013 has led to a relative decoupling of economic growth from carbon emissions, primarily driven by technology. The slowdown in China's imported emissions growth can be attributed to restructuring of import patterns resulting from changes in domestic demand. This indicates a shift towards less emissions-intensive trade rather than pure outsourcing.
