As an environment-friendly financial service, digital finance is conducive to the development of a low-carbon economy. Based on the panel data of 287 cities in China from 2011 to 2019, this paper uses a two-way fixed-effect model and an intermediary model to study the impact of digital finance on carbon emissions. The empirical analysis results show that: in the whole of China, digital finance has an obvious effect on reducing carbon dioxide emission intensity; the impact of digital finance on carbon emission intensity has regional heterogeneity, and the development of digital finance in eastern China can play a significant role in reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The impact of digital finance on carbon emission intensity is dimensionally heterogeneous, and the development of the usage depth of digital finance and the digitization level can reduce carbon emission intensity; technological progress plays a partial intermediary role in the process of digital finance affecting carbon emissions. Digital finance can drive low-carbon development by promoting the optimization and upgrading of technology. Based on the above conclusions, this paper puts forward corresponding sug-gestions for the development of China’s green and low-carbon economy.","PeriodicalId":91573,"journal":{"name":"Low carbon economy","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70494992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the context of global emissions reduction, the trend has been to low carbon buildings. As a major carbon emitting country, it is urgent to promote emission reduction in the construction industry and to establish a model for carbon emissions and calculation in buildings. To this end, this paper collates life cycle carbon emission calculation methods based on life cycle theory and establishes a mixed life cycle carbon emission calculation model for buildings to provide ideas for low carbon buildings in China. A case study of a hospital in Guangming City, Anhui Province is also conducted to verify the feasibility of the model. The results show that the total carbon emission of the hospital is 43283.66 tCO 2 eq, with the production phase, construction phase, use and maintenance phase and end-of-life phase accounting for 9.13%, 0.35%, 90.06% and 0.46% of the total carbon emission respectively. An analysis of the factors influencing carbon emissions at each stage is presented, and recommendations are given for corresponding emission reduction measures. The carbon emission calculation model based on the hybrid LCA proposed in this study enables a more com-prehensive consideration of carbon emissions in the life cycle of a building, and has implications for the study of building carbon emission calculation.","PeriodicalId":91573,"journal":{"name":"Low carbon economy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70495007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we provide details of revisions that form the basis of EPPA7, the current version. Key updates include: 1) using the latest Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP-power) database as the core economic data for the world economy; 2) updating regional economic growth projections; 3) separating extant and vintage capital of the previously aggregated fossil generation; 4) using an innovative approach to calculate the costs of backstop (i.e., advanced) power generation options based on engineering data from the Energy Information Administration; 5) identifying base year biofuel output from existing sectors; and 6) re-parameterizing electric vehicles based on recent studies. Our simulations demonstrate that with widespread mitigation policies worldwide, regions relying heavily on fossil fuel imports benefit from lower global fossil fuel prices when their domestic emissions targets are lenient, but the benefits dissipate when deeper emissions cuts are imposed domestically. We also provide an illustration how the model output can be used to calculate the net present values of unrealized fossil fuel production and stranded assets from idling coal power generation under various policy scenarios.","PeriodicalId":91573,"journal":{"name":"Low carbon economy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70494949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
