【 摘 要 】

Industries of Fujian Province use more energy than any other sectors and it is important to explore both the characteristics and reduction potential of their CO2 emissions. A decomposition analysis based on the LMDI method during 2005-2016 is performed to investigate the main driving forces behind energy-related CO2 emissions variations in Fujian Province, China. We find that raw coal, crude oil and electricity are ranked in the top three CO2 emissions. The proportion of CO2 emissions from raw coal still accounts for the largest proportion of CO2 emissions from all types of energy. The total CO2 emissions of industrial energy consumption increased from 44.27 million tons (Mt) in 2005 to 88.51 Mt in 2016. The industrial scale effect is the main driving factor for the growth of CO2 emissions in Fujian industry sector. The energy intensity effect is the main inhibitor of the growth of CO2 emissions. The energy structure effect has only a weak positive or negative impact on Fujian industrial CO2 emissions. Finally, some potential policy implications are put forward on mitigating carbon emissions.
