Abstract:
The paper studies carbon emissions of Shaanxi province. The LYQ framework is used in this paper to analyzes the relationship between carbon emissions and economic growth of Shaanxi province from 2001 to 2010. The result showed that most years, in Shaanxi province, economic growth and carbon emissions has a weak decoupled state, and the carbon emissions growth speed is less than the regional GDP growth rate. Higher energy efficiency played a major role to slow the growth speed of carbon emissions; and the value creation elasticity is the main factor to hinder decoupling. So, in the future, Shaanxi province wants to develop low-carbon economy should be optimized industrial structure and efforts to develop low-energy high-value-added industry.
