Carbon Emission Factor Decomposition Model and Empirical Research of Inner Mongolia Based on LMDI

Inner Mongolia has rich energy resources, and how to realize low carbon scientific development is a very important issue for the autonomous region to realize great-leap-forward development. This article analyzed the factors which have been influencing the Inner Mongolia’s carbon emission from 2001 to 2010 by using the LMDI model, revealed the coal-dominated energy structure and the fast-growing economy are the main reasons that influence Inner Mongolia carbon emissions. The research results show that economic growth and carbon emissions have a close relationship, and the author gives some policy suggestions depend on the results.
