Dynamic total factor carbon emissions performance changes in the Chinese transportation industry

“…Many single indicators, like carbon intensity, are used to monitor carbon emissions performance [3][4][5], and some studies have used a benchmarking approach by comparing relative carbon emissions performance across different observations. However, these methods only measure partial carbon emissions performance because they reflect only the products and carbon emissions, without taking into consideration all production factors involved in the production process.…”

“…* is the optimal solution corresponding to carbon emissions. In (5), the TCPI lies between zero and unity, and the higher the TCPI, the better the carbon emission performance is. If the TCPI is equal to unity, then the observation shows the best total factor carbon emission performance located along the frontier.…”

Total factor carbon emission performance: A Malmquist index analysis

“…Sun (2005) highlights the usefulness of CO 2 emission intensity in measuring decarbonization and assessing energy policies at the national level. Tol et al (2009) show that both CO 2 emission intensity and CO 2 emissions per person can be considered as a function of per capita income.…”

Analysis of driving forces behind diversified carbon dioxide emission patterns in regions of the mainland of China

“…Additionally, studies have named economic development as one of the important driving forces behind aggregated CO 2 emissions and have discussed the effects of economic development on carbon emissions using decomposition methods [5][6][7][8]. Moreover, Tol [9], Rezek [10], and Aldy [11] employed different methodologies to examine the relationship between economic development and carbon emissions for sector levels at different stages of economic development.…”
