Motivation Motivation

Why we should care about this: 1. Chinese GHG emissions are already a significant regional externality and could be decisive on a global basis. 2. China’s energy demand is “rocking the tanker.” 3. Because of its status as a populous DC, what happens in China in terms of sustainable living is of special significance.

  • 1. Where is China along the path of energy

dependence?

  • 2. How might energy prices and policies

influence its course?

  • 3. How can we decompose the ensuing

environmental effects?

Energy and GHG Trends in China Energy and GHG Trends in China

Two contending perspectives: 1. Optimists point to falling coal intensity in the late 1990s and massive technology infusion across the economy. 2. Others see resurgence of coal and

  • verwhelming demand shifts in recent

years, driven mainly by final consumption and completion of the process of modernization.

Composition of Environmental Incidence: Composition of Environmental Incidence: Primary Drivers and the Pollution Troika Primary Drivers and the Pollution Troika

Economic sources of pollution can be decomposed into three parts: 1. Growth effects – expanding the envelope of economic

  • activity. China’s successes here are now legendary,

and becoming almost surreal. 2. Composition effects – shifting patterns of supply and demand around the surface of the envelope. Things will get much worse before they get better. 3. Technological change – efficiency gains, bending the

  • envelope. Here is the only unequivocally good news,

driven mainly by coal use/distribution constraints and technology transfer.

Conclusions Conclusions

China’s economy has attained levels of growth and modernization that seemed beyond imagining only a generation ago. Along with its many successes in improving material living standards, however, have come new risks to sustainability and environmental quality.

  • Without more effective emission control policies, China’s economic

growth will give rise to very significant SO2 emission problems, especially in the period of 2015-2025.

  • After a period of industrialization, structural transformation induces

rapid expansions of energy-intensive final demand, mainly private electricity, heating, and transport services.

  • To meet the needs of a consumer society, SO2 emissions shift from

the other manufacturing and service sectors into intermediate energy generation (electricity generation and petrol and coke sectors), and petroleum refining.

  • Coal will be significantly replaced by relatively cleaner intermediate

energy sources such as electricity, oil products and natural gas in manufacturing.

  • Higher crude oil price may slow or even reverse this trend.
  • Even these pessimistic results understate the the problem, since final

consumption emissions are not even considered.

  • What is to be done? A very good question.
