Effects of technological changes on China's carbon emissions
Abstract
Technological progress is widely recognized as a method of reducing carbon emissions. However, many studies have shown that it can also lead to increased energy consumption and carbon emissions. To study the effects of technological changes on carbon emissions, we decomposed technological changes into environmental technological changes and production technological changes. Furthermore, we analyzed the effects of technological progress on carbon emissions by embedding the Solow residual model into the logarithmic mean Divisia index model. We used data from China's 30 provinces to calculate the regional effects of technological progress during 2005–2015. We drew the following conclusions: 1) China's overall domestic technological progress reduced carbon emissions over the study period; 2) technological progress in Central and West China significantly reduced carbon emissions, whereas that in East China slightly increased emissions; and 3) the relationship between technological progress and carbon emissions is complex and depends on both environmental technological changes and production technological changes.

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.
