“… LMDI | 1990–2007 | The primary reason for the fall in emissions was a reduction in energy intensity. | [ 42 ] | Exploring the emissions drivers in the Nigerian manufacturing sector through decomposition analysis and the potential of carbon tax (CAT) policy on mitigation | Carbon intensity, firm energy intensity, cost structure, asset turnover, asset-to-equity, equity-funded production, and productive capacity utilization | LMDI | 2010–2020 | Energy intensity and equity-funded production were the leading drivers of increased emissions, while productive capacity utilization reduced emissions. |
[ 43 ] | Decomposed the factors that affect the emissions of China's manufacturing industry | Investment intensity, industrial scale, industrial activity, R&D efficiency, R&D intensity, energy intensity, and emission factor | LMDI | 1995–2015 | The industrial activity effect was the most crucial factor leading to increased emissions in the manufacturing sector. |
