In the 11th Five-Year Plan (FYP) (2005–2010), the Chinese Government initiated a series of energy-saving and emission reduction policies in many key fields in response to environmental pollution and climate change. This paper quantitatively evaluates the performance of energy conservation and...

The Fisher index and its extensions have been used in multiplicative decomposition analysis applied to energy and emissions. In this study, we extend the concept of “additive decomposition of the Fisher index” in the national accounts and propose an attribution analysis of the generalized...

Residential energy consumption in China increased dramatically over the period of 2002–2010. In this paper, we undertake a decomposition analysis of changes in energy use by Chinese households for five energy-using activities: space heating/cooling, cooking, lighting and electric appliances....
