Economic Analysis of Measures for GHG Emission Reduction

Decomposition and Analysis of Driving Forces of GHG Emissions and Emission Reduction Potentials in Iran

Climate change cannot control unless by reduction of GHG emissions to secure level, therefore it is important to identify driving forces and possible scenarios based on targets. In this research, the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index decomposition approach in combination with Extended Kaya Identity (EKI) are applied to investigate five factors could affect emissions during 1971-2012 in Iran. Thes...

Quantifying Air and GHG Emission Reductions from Clean Energy Measures

Basic approaches typically include spreadsheet-based analyses that use emissions factor relationships or other assumptions to estimate reductions. Sophisticated approaches are usually more complex and involve dynamic electricity or energy system representations that predict energy generation responses to policies and calculate the effects on emissions.* 4.2.2 QUANTIFY AIR AND GHG EMISSION REDUC...

Emission reduction policy: A regional economic analysis for China☆

a r t i c l e i n f o China is under considerable pressure to reduce its CO 2 emissions and has given a public commitment to substantial cuts by 2020. Policy makers are acutely aware of the possible adverse economic consequences of such cuts, and an important part of this issue is the regional dimension—will policy to reduce emissions exacerbate the already large interregional disparities in Ch...

Cost Effective Options for Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emission Reduction in the Power Sector for Developing Economies

With their increasing shares of global emissions developing economies are increasingly being pressured to assume a greater role in global greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction. Developed countries have invested tremendously in and proclaimed renewable energy (RE) and associated smart power technologies as solutions to meet their energy demands and reduce their GHG emissions at the same time. ...
