报告简介

The last few years have witnessed a rapidly emerging literature estimating the marginal abatement cost, or the shadow price of CO2 emissions in China using parametric or non-parametric distance function approaches. This is largely driven by the fact that China has become the world’s largest carbon emitter and thus faced mounting domestic and international pressure to mitigate emissions. we provide a thorough and critical review of this literature, and more importantly, identify research directions that need the most attention from scholars.
