Factors and Regional Characteristics of Carbon Emission in Shaanxi Province
Adopting the data about Shaanxi terminal energy consumption during 1996-2010 and energy consumption per unit of GDP for each city in Shaanxi Province in 2010
the total carbon emission
per capita carbon emission and carbon emission intensity were estimated
and the influence factors of carbon emission were analyzed by using LMDI(logarithmic mean divisia index) decomposition model based on the Kaya identity. The results show that:(1) The total carbon emission and per capita carbon emission of energy consumption were fallen slightly during 1996-2000
then showed a trend of increased volatility year by year during 2001-2010 in Shaanxi Province
while the carbon emission intensity presented a downward trend overall. According to the energy ratio of carbon emission
coal consumption accounted for absolute proportion(70.47%).(2) There were obvious differences of total carbon emission among each cities in Shaanxi Province
it was the highest in Guanzhong area
it was second in Northern Shaanxi Province
and it was the lowest in Southern Shaanxi Province; In the regional city: carbon emission were by more than 5.00×106 t in Yulin
Xi'an and Weinan City
but it was only 7.21×104 t in Yangling zone; The intensity was higher in Yulin and Weinan City
and was lower in Yangling zone and Shangluo City.(3) Economic output
industrial structure and population size showed a positive effect on carbon emission increasing during this period
while the energy intensity and energy structure showed a negative effect. Among all these influence factors
economic growth is the decisive factor for the carbon emission increasing
and the reduction of the energy intensity is a major determinant of carbon emission decreasing.
