Download or read book Tracking Industrial Energy Efficiency and CO2 Emissions written by International Energy Agency and published by OECD/IEA. This book was released on 2007 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industry accounts for about one-third of global energy demand. Most of that energy is used to produce raw materials: chemicals, iron and steel, non-metallic minerals, pulp and paper and non-ferrous metals. Just how efficiently is this energy put to work? 'Tracking Industrial Energy Efficiency and CO2 Emissions' shows how industrial energy efficiency has improved over the last 25 years. Yet important opportunities for additional gains remain, which is evident when the efficiencies of different countries are compared. This analysis identifies the leaders and the laggards. It explains clearly a complex issue for non-experts.

Download or read book Climate Change and Industry Structure in China written by Chu Wei and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-30 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As carbon dioxide is the most important source of greenhouse gases today, its emission quantity has become a primary focus of governments, scholars, and the general public. From the perspective of the structure of Chinese industry, this book aims to answer two questions. First, what is the driving force of China’s CO2 emissions and how does this relate to the structure of industry? Second, what is the potential for abatement and the cost of CO2 across sectors and regions, and the impact for industry? The author calculates the CO2 inventory data at province and sectoral level based on the approach of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and then quantifies the CO2 abatement potential and marginal abatement cost using this production framework. Econometric models are used to examine the likely impact on industry of abatement potential and cost. The book hence provides a rich source of information for general readers to better understand the characteristics, patterns and drivers of China’s CO2 emissions. It also provides solid evidence for policy-makers to help mitigate CO2 emissions through industrial restructuring strategy.

Download or read book Climate Change and Industry Structure in China written by Chu Wei and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to effectively address global warming, many countries have significantly reduced the amount of carbon dioxide emissions that are put into the atmosphere. From the perspective of industrial structure, this volume examines the emission reduction potentials and abatement costs in China. By making an empirical analysis of the emission reduction, the author proposes some practical strategies. The book comprehensively summarizes related theories and research of contaminant disposal modeling, and estimates the shadow price of interprovincial CO2 emissions, the emission reduction potential of different regions, and the marginal emission reduction cost based on the parametric model. It finally puts forward the strategy to adjust the industrial structure in China. The book hence provides solid evidence for policy-makers to help mitigate CO2 emissions through industrial restructuring strategy.

Book excerpt: This document reviews the energy use and technology of the industrial sector in California and methodology for making energy use projections to 2050. The industrial sector in California consumes 25% of the state's total energy use and roughly the same portion of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Most studies examining California's industrial sector and future energy use and GHG emissions are conducted in highly aggregated fashion based historical trends and assumptions about improvements at the sectorial level. None have conducted comprehensive bottom-up assessment examining technological change for each subsector and energy services. The first section describes the purpose of this study, gives an overview of California's industrial energy profile including energy use, major fuel types, and different industrial subsectors in energy modeling system. The section also discusses historical GHG emissions from the industrial sector. Section II examines California's manufacturing energy use, focusing on electric and natural gas energy intensity of manufacturing subsectors by Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) group, and then estimates electricity and natural gas consumption by subsector and end-use services using various methods. The third section describes the energy structure of California's non-manufacturing industries-- oil & gas extraction and combined heat and power (CHP). The study examines the distributions of CHPs in terms of capacity and number of sites in California and the potentials. Industrial end use technologies are examined in Section IV, including detailed description regarding their fuel use and efficiency across all industrial subsectors. This study uses a bottom-up approach to project the structure of the California's energy system efficiencies, costs, service demand growth, energy consumption, and GHG emissions to 2050. The projections are made based on a 2005 base year energy calibration and industrial output forecast taking into account technological change. Scenario analysis is conducted to evaluate the impact of various technology adoption and industrial structure changes on future energy use and GHG emissions. This study demonstrates that all the measures discussed in this study including development of technology efficiency, adoption of best available technology and industrial output reduction could reduce California's industrial GHG emissions at some levels, but none of them alone would make a substantial reduction, beyond 32%. Therefore, the industry needs an integrated strategy framework incorporating all feasible solutions, entailing both technology and economic output, in order to achieve the state's GHG emissions reduction target. This study explores the possible options for California industrial GHG reduction without taking economic factors into consideration. Future work will try to discover the most cost-effective climate strategies to meet the state's carbon mitigation target.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The PhD dissertation discusses large transformations of technologies have occurred in the Swedish economy during the last two centuries, resulting in higher income, better quality of products and changing composition of GDP. An agrarian society has given way to an industrial society and lately to a post-industrial phase. The energy supply systems have changed, from traditional energy carriers, such as firewood and muscle energy to modern carriers like coal, oil and electricity, with effects on CO2 emissions. Not only has the energy supply gone through fundamental changes, but also forest management, which affects the net emissions of CO2. The interrelations of growth, energy and CO2 are analyzed in this thesis, which uses standard calculations
