Assessing the impact of green transformation on carbon emissions: a dynamic spatial Durbin model

Frontiers in Environmental Economics, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 4

Published: Feb. 5, 2025

Introduction China's environmental policies and the green transformation of its industries have attained paramount significance in wake intensifying climate change soaring carbon emissions, critically shaping sustainable development at both national international scales. As exploration drivers outcomes this revolution on emissions gains traction as a focal point research, study endeavors to assess effects their underlying causes. Methods Utilizing systems thinking methodology, dynamic spatial Durbin model was constructed, analyzing statistical data spanning from 2004 2021, encompassing 30 Chinese provinces. Results significantly influences distribution patterns across various regions. Discussion Environmental Protection investment has been effective curbing local businesses, yet it may also prompt relocation these businesses neighboring provinces, inadvertently elevating emissions. Green innovation adoption energy technologies proven instrumental reducing region, with positive spillover extending nearby areas. The analysis further underscores inertia indicating that achieving reduction is process requiring consistent sustained efforts over long term. findings offer valuable insights recommendations for government devising implementing align dual-carbon target, aiming achieve greener more future.

Two-Level Optimal Scheduling of Electric–Aluminum–Carbon Energy System Considering Operational Safety of Electrolytic Aluminum Plants

Energies, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 18(7), P. 1645 - 1645

Published: March 25, 2025

In recent years, the mounting pressure on integration of renewable power has emerged as a crucial concern within systems. This situation urgently necessitates an enhancement in operational flexibility demand side. As energy-intensive load, electrolytic aluminum plants have great potential to participate response. However, existing models for load regulation lack verification safety, and there is consideration carbon trading mechanisms. To this end, paper proposes two-level optimization framework electric–aluminum–carbon energy More specifically, work presents safety-constrained plant model, which considers states swinging with key parameters limitations verified by thermal dynamic simulations electrolyzers. addition, green certificate tiered mechanisms are both introduced energy. Case studies show that proposed can significantly reduce system emission 21.9%, improve overall economic efficiency 16.5%, increase rate 4.5%, additional 8.6% reduction be achieved adopting EU price policies.
