The Potential Energy of Carbon Resources Flow in Industrial System under the Restriction of Carbon Quota:A Research Based on Biased Technological Progress

Zheng-Nan Lu, Dong-Dan Zhu, and Jian Wang

Abstract— Under the background of the national unified carbon market is about to be established, the industrial system of our country is faced with the decision reducing production, proving technology or purchasing carbon quota. Starting from the bias of technological progress in the industrial sector , this paper is point of penetration with the technological progress to expound the bias of technological progress will lead that carbon resources among the industrial sectors has the “potential energy” flowing from one industry sector to another with the actual data of China's, which demonstrates the implementation of carbon quota will make the carbon resources flow in the industrial sector, driving the evolution of low-carbon. Using DEA-Malmquist index decomposition method, we get the conclusion: (i)there is technical progress bias in China's industrial system, and which has a gain effect on productivity; (ii)the technical progress bias is sTable in China’s industrial system; (iii)The technological progress of China's industrial system is partial to carbon resource saving; (iv)with the help of the cross coordinates, we get the results that: the technical progress bias carbon resources saving in 9 industrial sectors, which does not exist in the other 2 industries. That demonstrates the “potential energy” of carbon resources flowing; (v)the technological progress has made the whole industrial system biasing towards carbon resource saving, and the industrial system is gradually optimized.

Index Terms— Biased technological progress, carbon flow, decomposition of DEA-malmquist index, industrial system, potential energy.
