Abstract

In this paper, the impact of the carbon emission trading policy on carbon emission efficiency is discussed based on the local data of China from 2004 to 2019, based on the natural experiment of carbon emission trading policy. The intermediary model is introduced to analyze the mediating effect of industrial structure and energy consumption structure in emission reduction. The results show that the carbon emission trading policy not only directly improves the carbon emission efficiency, but also indirectly improves the carbon emission efficiency by upgrading the industrial structure and adjusting the energy consumption structure. Finally, this paper verifies that carbon trading policy has a synergistic emission reduction effect on sulfur emission efficiency. The mechanism of the SO2 reduction is similar to that of the CO2 reduction mechanism, with direct and intermediary effects.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
