Measuring carbon dioxide emission performance in Chinese provinces: A parametric approach

Wang, Q.W.; Zhou, P.; Shen, N.; Wang, S.S. - In: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 21 (2013) C, pp. 324-330

This paper looks at carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the point of view of production theory and proposes a new total factor CO2 emissions performance index. This is done using directional distance function followed by stochastic frontier analysis techniques in order to estimate the index....
