Impacts of Technological Progress, Structural Adjustment on Energy-Related Carbon Emissions Intensity in Logistics Industry: Empirical Research on Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region

摘要

To achieve integrated green development of logistics industry in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area, the traditional LMDI model is refined. Focusing on technological progress and structural adjustment effect, influencing factors of carbon emissions intensity of logistics industry in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and the contribution of each province and cities to total carbon emissions intensity in logistics industry were analyzed. Results show that the contribution rate of technological progress, structural upgrading, and regional economic development to the decrease of carbon emission intensity were 89.2%, 5.8%, and 5.0%, respectively. Integrated transportation structure was the main factor to increase carbon emission intensity. Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei played a positive role in reducing the total logistics carbon emission intensity, and Tianjin has the greatest contribution to the intensity decline. It is important for the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region to develop differentiated emissions abatement policies and implement energy-saving emission abatement responsibilities based on the characteristics of logistics industry.
