A new energy decomposition method, called the Log-Mean Divisia Index Method I (LMDI I), is presented. It has the desirable properties of perfect decomposition and consistency in aggregation. Perfect decomposition ensures that the decomposition results obtained do not contain a residual term....

This paper introduces a new method to estimate and decompose sources of carbon dioxide emissions using the input–output model. This method uses what we call the ‘mean rate-of-change index’ for weights of the decomposed terms. In this journal, Ang et al. asserted that logarithmic mean...

This paper presents a non-radial directional distance function approach to modeling energy and CO2emission performance in electricity generation from the production efficiency point of view. We first define and construct the environmental production technologies for the countries with and...
