CO2 Emissions from China’s Power Industry: Scenarios and Policies for 13th Five-Year Plan

CO2 Emissions from China’s Power Industry: Scenarios and Policies for 13th Five-Year Plan

The extended Stochastic Impacts by Regression on Population, Affluence and Technology (STIRPAT) model has been applied to analyzing the relationship between CO2 emissions from power industry and the influential factors for the period from 1997 to 2020. The two groups found through partial least square (PLS) regularity test show two important areas for CO2 emissions reduction from the power indu...

Proposed Scenarios for Total Emissions Control of So2 Emissions during the Tenth Five-year Plan in China

China continues its strategy of total emissions control (TEC) or total load control for SO2 in the Tenth Five Years (2001~2005). This paper will analyze the status of SO2 TEC in China during the Ninth Five-Years (1996~2000). Based on the results of the analysis and the theory of divisional air resources, this paper will study the target of total SO2 emissions nationwide and its allocation for d...

Ending Extreme Poverty in Bangladesh During the Seventh Five Year Plan: Trends, Drivers and Policies

Does Economic Growth Help Poor People? Evidence from Iran in the first five - year plan

This paper examines the relationship between growth and poverty in Iran during the first five-year plan. In other words, effort has been made to show whether economic growth in Iran helped poor people or not. For this purpose the concept of pro poor growth has been analyzed with application to the economy of Iran, both in urban and rural areas and in the country as a whole. We use an indicator ...

Economics of CO2 Emissions in Power Systems

The paper analyzes the economics of CO2 emissions in power systems by introducing concepts of marginal carbon intensity (MCI) of electricity demand and shadow carbon intensities (SCI) of binding transmission constraints. It demonstrates that values of MCIs are time and location dependent and exhibit properties similar to those of locational marginal prices of power. These concepts and their pro...
