description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article , Journal 2021Publisher:Elsevier BV Abstract Computable general equilibrium models are becoming popular for simulating emissions trading systems. However, these models make various assumptions about the production structure and the possibilities of substituting energy for productive factors or inputs. Therefore, this study aims to analyze how different options to incorporate energy into the nested production structure of a computable general equilibrium model affect the obtained impacts when an emissions trading system is implemented. A flexible computable general equilibrium model called ECOMODEL is developed, which is the first model that allows choosing any of the three nested production structures most used in the literature (KEL-M, KL-EM, or KLE-M). The Chilean economy is used as a case study since there is a current database with high disaggregation of the energy sector for calibrating the computable general equilibrium model. The results show that the simulated impacts with KEL-M and KL-EM structures are the best when elasticities of substitution equal to the values most frequently used in previous studies are chosen. However, the KEL-M structure that considers energy as a substitute for capital provides overly optimistic environmental results when high elasticities of substitution are used, obtaining the lowest reduction in Gross Domestic Product and the lowest price of the emissions trading system. Furthermore, the KLE-M structure gives unrealistic results regardless of the elasticities of substitution used. In consequence, a KL-EM nested production structure should be prioritized to simulate an emissions trading system since it provides realistic results and is less sensitive to the values of the elasticities of substitution.

This study attempts to examine the impacts of export on carbon intensity by proposing a novel framework that targeting at the gap between export aggregate carbon intensity (EACI) and self aggregate carbon intensity (SACI) which constitute the total carbon intensity to reveal export effects. Multi-region input-output model was used to calculate EACI and SACI in 44 world regions in 2014. LMDI approach was further adopted to decompose the gap between EACI and SACI from sectoral perspective. Some main results are concluded. (1) On global scale, exports increased 7.2% in carbon intensity. On national scale, exports showed increased effects on most countries (42/44). The regional EACI/SACI ranged from 0.79 to 3.53. (2) Sectoral aggregate carbon intensity (ACI) of export decreased EACI by 51 g/$, while sectoral aggregate structure (AS) of export increased EACI by 186 g/$, resulting in 135 g/$ increase in EACI globally. (3) For most regions, although ACI of carbon-intensive sectors (Elec., Metal, Nonmetal, Trans., Chem. and Coke&petrol.) in exports was lower than that in self, the high AS of these sectors in exports resulted in EACI higher than SACI, causing pulling force of export on global carbon intensity. Thus reducing carbon-intensive industries’ weights in exports would have great effects on global and national carbon intensity mitigation.

Sofia Simoes in OpenAIREAbstract The deep decarbonisation of the power sector coupled with electrification of end-use sectors will be crucial towards a carbon neutral economy, as required to achieve the Paris Agreement's goal. Several studies have highlighted the relevance of electrification under deep decarbonisation. However, previous work does not explore what would be the major shifts towards electrification, i.e., in what economic activities it will likely occur and when up to 2050 considering gradually stricter GHG emissions constraints. This is of upmost relevance since relatively small variations in emission caps may trigger substantial modifications in specific components of the energy system, namely the shift for the electrification of a particular energy end-use, with impacts on the power sector’s portfolio. In this paper, we analyse the extension of the electrification of the energy system as a cost-effective strategy for deep decarbonisation. We set a large number of increasingly stringent mitigation caps to assess: (i) the degree of electrification of different energy end-uses across all economic activities, (ii) the impact in power sector portfolio and costs and (iii) investment needs. The novelty of this paper relies on the anticipation of electrification of activities traditionally supplied by non-electricity energy carriers, by exploring when and how such transformation may occur in the future, and how much it would cost. We assess the case of Portugal till 2050 by using the TIMES_PT model to generate 50 increasingly stricter decarbonisation scenarios. In the long term, incremental changes (+1%) in more aggressive decarbonisation targets (beyond −70% reduction) induce substantial increase in the share of electrification growth rates. Electric private vehicles, electricity-based steam and heat production in ceramic industrial sector and heat pumps in buildings are the most cost-effective electric technologies. We found that a decarbonisation up to near −80% of 1990′s levels of the Portuguese energy system does not have a significant impact on the power sector unit costs, and does not surpass historic values for some years. However, it should be noted that incremental changes (+1%) in more aggressive decarbonisation targets may increase sharply electricity costs in 2050 (+9%). Thus, focusing in only few scenarios may narrow the role of electrification (or other mitigation options) and its associated costs for deep decarbonisation. This paper allows researchers, planners and decision makers to enhance awareness regarding the relevance and cost-effectiveness of electrification under decarbonisation, namely its feasibility and affordability, providing fruitful insights.

Meanwhile, both Brent and WTI (West Texas Intermediate) crude oil prices have entered into a new round of increase and volatility, and the abnormal price spreads between them have been identified. Under this circumstance, this paper employs the Markov regime switching model with dynamic autoregressive coefficients to explore the price regimes of Brent and WTI after the financial crisis. Then it analyzes the causes of the abnormal spreads between the two benchmark crude oil prices based on the statistical observations of their typical regime differences. The results show that there are three main regimes in both Brent and WTI crude oil price returns, i.e., sharply downward, slightly downward and sharply upward regimes for Brent whilst sharply downward, relatively stable and sharply upward regimes for WTI. Meanwhile, the typical price regimes of Brent and WTI are the “sharply upward” and “relatively stable” regimes after the financial crisis, respectively. Besides, their different movement regimes in recent years are mainly attributed to their different market fundamental situations and the dynamics in crude oil markets, which also lead to the occurrence of their abnormal price spreads.

Three scenarios with different domestic tariff regulation alternatives, i.e., Actual Regulation (AR), No Regulation (NR), and Strong Regulation (SR), are simulated to reflect the effectiveness of different policies. At the sectoral scale, the Coking sector has the largest price variation under all scenarios while agriculture sectors and services sectors are the least sensitive. Nation-level impacts are examined by the weighted price changes of commodities used for different purposes. With the government regulation in reality, about 5% of the GDP deflator and CPI changes as well as 25% of the PPI change over the research period are attributed to coal price increase. Comparison shows the AR scenario brings more stable fluctuations but higher inflation than the NR scenario. The SR scenario confirms that authorities can remarkably relieve short-run inflation by controlling domestic electricity and heat tariffs. The induced inflationary expense sums up to between 0.03% and 0.97% of China’s GDP, around three quarters of which are burdened by investors and foreigners. The quantitative effect investigated in this study can serve as empirical evidence for policy makers regarding inflation control in China.

Keiichiro Kanemoto in OpenAIREAbstract Understanding the drivers of past and present energy consumption trends is important for a range of stakeholders, including governments, businesses and international development organizations, in order to prepare for impacts on global supply chains caused by changes in future energy price or availability shocks. In this paper we use environmentally-extended input–output tables to: (a) quantify the long-term drivers that have led to diversified energy footprint profiles of 186 countries around the world from 1990 to 2010; (b) identify which countries and sectors recorded an increase or decrease in energy footprints during this time period; (c) highlight the effect of international outsourcing of energy-intensive production processes by decomposing the structural and spatial change in energy footprints; and (d) discuss the implications for national economic policy for the identified drivers. To this end, we use a detailed Multi-Regional Input–Output database and three prevalent structural decomposition analysis methods. To reduce biases in the results due to time lapse and currency variations, we convert input–output tables to common US$ and 1990-constant prices. This study provides a broad overview of the magnitude and distribution of the drivers for energy footprints across countries. The results of this study demonstrate that for almost all countries affluence and population growth are driving energy footprints worldwide, which is in part counteracted by the retarding effect of industrial energy intensity. In particular, this study demonstrates that with increasing per-capita GDP, the total energy footprint of a country is increasingly concentrated on imports or consumption.

Natalya V. Gorbacheva in OpenAIRECoal use—and thus investment—is expected to grow considerably in the Russian Federation over the next few decades. Projections suggest that at least $200 billion of investment will be needed to modernize existing coal-fired power plants by 2030, but the bulk of this financing is to come from the private sector or foreign enterprises. This study asks: what are the possible investment risks and rewards of pursuing this expansion of coal in the Russian power sector? To provide an answer, the study uses a mixed methods approach consisting of elite semi-structured interviews and a review of English and Russian peer-reviewed literature. The study provides a brief overview of the Russian electricity sector before discussing five distinct rewards to investing in coal such as low production costs, competitive returns on investment, rural modernization, expansion of exports, and the acceleration of innovation. These benefits however are offset by five risks: inferior performance to investments in oil and gas, development challenges, air pollution and climate change, social degradation from mining, and a tradeoff with existing policies incentivizing renewable energy and energy efficiency. The study concludes by analyzing what these disparate risks and rewards mean for policymakers and energy analysts.

Hydrological processes and the corresponding emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) during rainfall events are optimized by GI when the latter is compared with a traditional urban drainage system. This study establishes an city-scale quantitative analysis, based on hydrological processes, with which to assess the contribution of GIs to low-carbon urban drainage systems and cities. The emission factor method is applied to measure GHG emissions. Attributable sources of emissions are wastewater treatment plants and wastewater and rainwater pumps. The amount and rate of change in GHG emissions were selected as indicators of the impacts of GI-based urban drainage systems and a case study was conducted in Dongying, China, based on 48 hydrological scenarios from 1970 to 2017. The amount of annual GHG emissions decreased by 3752.5 to 26238.9 tons of CO2 equivalent at an average of 10677.3 tons/a. The rate of annual GHG emissions decreased by 25.9–68.7% with an average reduction of 45.9%. An S-shaped logistic curve fit the data, indicated that annual rainfall is non-linearly and positively correlated with both the amount and rate of annual GHG emissions mitigated. The probability of benefits to GHG emissions in the 48 hydrological scenarios is analyzed based on a Pearson type III distribution curve. These findings can provide information that local authorities can use to guide policies towards their goals of applying GIs to mitigate GHG emissions in the urban drainage system.

Richard Wood in OpenAIREThis paper examines the sources of changes in energy use of the Brazilian economy of industries and households from 1970 to 1996, using structural decomposition analysis based on the logarithmic mean divisia index technique. Energy use can be decomposed into eight factors that explain changes in overall energy use over the entire time period, and within five sub-periods. The growth of energy use between 1970 and 1996 was mainly influenced by changes in affluence, population and intersectoral dependencies, while changes in direct energy intensity and per capita residential energy use had a retarding impact on energy use. The novel contributions of the paper are the alignment of a previously disparate data set, the use of supply-use tables for SDA, and the application of such an SDA to a developing country. Both contributions involve solving a range of methodological issues pertaining to handling of large data sets.

Under this contextual, this paper presents a decomposition analysis of energy related carbon dioxide emissions from the steel produced to manufacture new automobiles. The novelty of this analysis is that it links energy related carbon dioxide emissions from service demand to material production, breaking changes in demand for services measured as passenger-kilometers driven by new automobiles either for replacement or for new demand; steel content in new automobiles (material intensity); production process (structure); final energy intensity; and carbon intensity. The study boundaries include direct and indirect steel imports (contained in automobile imports). This analysis is applied to the Mexican case from 1993 to 2011. The results show that an increase in the pass-km followed by the growth in the vehicle size is the most important factors influencing carbon dioxide emissions. The rise of fuels with higher carbon contents in countries that export vehicles and steel to Mexico is also an important variable that had increased emissions. A projection for CO 2 emissions for 2025 was developed to understand the significance of the different variables in the reduction of CO 2 emissions related to the steel production for new automobiles.
