On the mechanism of international technology diffusion for energy technological progress

Jin, Wei; Zhang, ZhongXiang - 2015

International diffusion of energy-saving technologies has received considerable attention in recent energy and climate economics studies. As a helpful methodological complement to the existing large-scale CGE/IAM-based modelling for energy and climate policy studies, this paper contributes to a...

Intermediate input linkage and carbon leakage

Zhang, Zengkai; Zhang, ZhongXiang - 2016

Climate regulations tend to target energy intensive sectors whose products are widely used in industrial production as intermediate inputs, such as electricity, and the carbon abatement may be partially offset by intermediate input-led leakage. This paper aims to examine the impact of...

On the mechanism of international technology diffusion for energy productivity growth

Jin, Wei; Zhang, ZhongXiang - 2014

International diffusion of advanced environment and energy-related technologies has received much attention in recent environmental economics studies. As a much needed complement to the "black box" complex numerical modelling, this paper contributes to developing a simple, intuitive analytical...

Does China fall into poverty-environment traps? : evidence from long-term income dynamics and urban air pollution

Wu, Jian-xin; He, Ling-yun; Zhang, ZhongXiang - 2019

This paper examines the long-run relationship between income and urban air pollution using a joint distribution dynamics approach. This approach enables to estimate the transition process and long-run distribution and to examine the mechanisms behind the evolution process. The approach is...

Capital accumulation, green paradox, and stranded assets : an endogenous growth perspective

Jin, Wei; Zhang, ZhongXiang - 2018

The existing studies on Green Paradox and stranded assets focus on dirty exhaustible assets (fossil fuel reserves) and show that environmental regulations, by changing the costs of dirty inputs relative to clean ones, lead to replacements of the former by the latter and stranding of dirty assets...
