文摘
- •
We adopt a novel decomposition method – Generalized Divisia Index Method (GDIM).
- •
We use GDIM to uncover drivers of CO2 emissions changes from China’s mining sector.
- •
We carry out a scenario analysis of mitigation pathways for China’s mining sector.
- •
Output scale and carbon intensity are two primary factors of CO2 emissions changes.
- •
More efforts should be made for the whole mining sector to achieve the peak target.
