Examining the Driving Factors of the Direct Carbon Emissions of Households in the Ebinur Lake Basin Using the Extended STIRPAT Model

In order to achieve the carbon emission reduction targets in Xinjiang, it has become a necessary condition study of households small and medium-sized cities Xinjiang. This paper studies direct emissions (DCEH) Ebinur Lake Basin, based on extended STIRPAT model, using 1987–2017 annual time series data Basin Xinjiang analyze driving factors. The results indicate that DCEH during 31 years from 1987 2017 generally increased energy structure undergone tremendous changes. proportion coal continues decline, while natural gas, gasoline diesel is growing rapidly. main positive factors affecting its are urbanization, vehicle ownership GDP per capita, secondary factor residents’ year-end savings.
