Measuring total-factor energy environment efficiency, energy-saving and carbon emission-reduction potential in China's food industryAQ1: Based on a meta-frontier slacks-based measure model

Xuan Xie et al.

Summary: China's food industry is a significant energy consumer and carbon emitter due to its large scale. An analysis of the total-factor energy environment efficiency was conducted, revealing low efficiency and technology gaps between regions. In 2013, the industry had a potential energy-saving of 49.28 million tce and CO2 emission reduction potential of 154.6 million tons, with 76% of energy savings coming from improved management efficiency. Targeted recommendations for energy saving and emission reduction were proposed based on the findings.

Energy efficiency in general equilibrium with input-output linkages

Christopher J. Blackburn et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that breakthrough innovations in energy efficiency in industrial activity have varying impacts on aggregate energy use, with the variation being partly determined by the structure of the economy's input-output network. Through a general equilibrium model, the research reveals that industrial energy efficiency improvements affect aggregate energy use through adjustments in factor and commodity markets as well as a process of structural transformation. The study introduces new energy centrality concepts to measure the extent to which an industry implicitly produces or consumes energy resources, and finds that variations in these concepts explain a significant portion of the rebound effect, highlighting the critical role of input-output structure in determining the aggregate effects of energy efficiency.
