The purpose of this paper is to use the gravity theory to study the spatial distribution and centers of gravity for the global energy-related CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emissions and to determine how they have changed over time. The main results are as follows: (1) In 2011, global energy-related CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emissions reached...</subscript></subscript>

To begin with, energy flow chart is used to analyze the status of China’s oil supply and consumption. Moreover, the temporal and spatial evolution of the oil production and oil products consumption in China is studied based on the gravity model. Finally, the decoupling index combined with the...

Since the start of economic reform in 1979, Jiangsu Province has become one of the most developed regions in China. To ensure adequate energy supply and sustainable development of economy and environment, it is necessary to analyze Jiangsu Province’s energy balance. The energy flow chart is...

As one of the largest energy consumer in the world, China has been facing great pressure to guarantee energy supply security. Investigating the driving forces dominating China energy consumption levels and their evolution may help to institute energy saving policy. Nowadays, the LMDI...

Electricity generation in China mainly depends on coal and its products, which has led to the increase in CO2 emissions. This paper intends to analyze the current status of CO2 emissions from electricity generation in China during the period 1991–2009, and apply the logarithmic mean Divisia...

China is the world's second-largest energy producer and consumer, so that it is very necessary to analyze China's energy situation for saving energy consumption and reducing GHG emission. Energy flow chart is taken as a useful tool for sorting out and displaying energy statistics data. Energy...

Jiangsu is one of the most developed regions in China. Its’ urbanization rate increased to 61.9 % in 2011, faster than the whole country level (51.27 %). Exploring the influence of urbanization on energy consumption in Jiangsu may help find the relationship between energy consumption and...
