Research and Analysis on the Influencing Factors of China’s Carbon Emissions Based on a Panel Quantile Model

Abstract: Since the beginning of the new century, China’s carbon emissions have increased significantly, and the country has become the world’s largest carbon emitter. Therefore, determining the influencing factors of carbon emissions is an important issue for policymakers. Based on the panel data of 30 provinces and cities across the country from 2000 to 2018, this study empirically tested how per capita disposable income, industrial structure, urbanization level, average family size, and technological innovation level… Show more

“…Liu et al studied the influencing factors of carbon emissions in China on the basis of the fixed effect panel quantile regression model. The results show that per capita GDP, population and 'Atmosphere ten' have a higher impact on carbon emissions in low carbon emission areas than in high carbon emission areas, and fixed asset investment and energy intensity have a stronger impact on carbon emissions in high carbon emission areas [25].…”

“…Furthermore, quantile regression allows for the observation of the tails of the dependent variable, reflecting more accurately the effect of the independent variable on the shape of the conditional distribution of the dependent variable. Moreover, it does not make any assumptions about the distribution of the random error term; the results are not easily affected by the extreme value, and the regression is more robust to reflect the data information more comprehensively [68]. To fix the inaccuracy of mean regression estimation and the shortcoming of only being able to examine the effect of the covariates on the dependent variable around the mean, scholars usually use quantile regression instead of mean regression.…”

“…Yang and Tan [6] used principal component analysis and concluded that the driving force of low-carbon economic development in Hunan Province mainly comes from economic efficiency factors. Liu [7] studied various factors affecting carbon emissions in China by LMDI factor decomposition method, and used scenario analysis to analyze carbon emissions in different contexts. Cao et al [8] used an extended multiplier structure decomposition method to identify the overall and regional carbon intensity changes in China from multiple levels, and decomposed the carbon intensity changes into input structure effect, intensity effect, and final demand effect.…”
