Given the relevance of energy and pollution issues for industrialised countries and the importance of industry and energy sectors to the achievement of their economic and environmental goals, it is important to know if there is a common pattern of emissions intensity, fuel intensity and energy...

The objective of this work is to identify the effects in which the intensity of GHG emissions (EI) in agriculture can be broken down and analysed, as well as their evolution and which of them has more importance in determining the intensity of emissions in agriculture. For that, we used the...

‘Complete decomposition’ technique was used to examine CO2 emissions intensity and its components, considering 36 economic sectors and the 1996–2009 period. Additionally, Innovative Accounting Approach was implemented, that includes forecast error variance decomposition and impulse...

Across Europe, CO2 emission allowances represent one of the main policy instruments to comply with the goals of the Kyoto Protocol. In this paper we use microdata to address two issues regarding the impact of the European Carbon Market (EU ETS). First, we analyze the sectoral effects of the EU...
