The emergence and growth of green bonds is primarily propelled by policy measures. The players in the green bond rating and evaluation market exhibit significant responsiveness and reliance on government stimuli and regulatory sanctions. This paper considers the four-party participants in the green bond rating evaluation supervision system as an interactive whole and develops a four-party evolutionary game model of "double rating + double supervision" under incomplete information based on Peng Ke's (2020) research on the rating supervision model. The model is used to analyze the impact of asymmetric fiscal incentives and regulatory constraints on the quality of green bond rating evaluation information and regulatory effectiveness. Empirical tests are conducted on green bond issuance data from 2016 to 2021 to examine the impact of incentive policies and regulatory constraints on the validity of green bond rating evaluation information. The research findings indicate that the quality of green bond rating evaluation information is influenced by the degree of regulatory penalties imposed by regulators and the Green Bond Committee, direct regulatory costs, and government financial incentives. The strategic sensitivity of green bond rating evaluation agencies to strict regulatory measures is greater than that of government financial incentives.
Accurate carbon accounting is foundational for power enterprises' participation in the carbon market. Current research on estimation of carbon dioxide emissions through electricity‑carbon index analysis primarily relies on an enterprise's total electricity consumption, which often leads to uncertainty and poor interpretability. In reality, carbon dioxide emissions within an enterprise are predominantly generated in specific key processes, indicating a strong correlation between the electricity consumption of key equipment and carbon dioxide emissions. In this context, to enhance both estimation accuracy and interpretability, a two-stage deep learning structure is proposed. This structure leverages non-intrusive load monitoring and employs deep learning algorithms to first disaggregate an enterprise's total electricity consumption into the consumption of key equipment and then use these data to estimate carbon dioxide emissions. Utilizing real-time data from a power plant in China, the proposed two-stage deep learning structure as well as three representative deep learning networks (Recurrent Neural Network, Long Short-Term Memory network, and Gated Recurrent Unit network) are applied to construct electricity‑carbon models for carbon dioxide emission estimation. The experimental results highlight that when employing the two-stage structure, models across three deep learning networks demonstrate a marked enhancement in estimation accuracy compared to traditional models. The two-stage structure reduces the mean squared error (MSE) for models across these three networks by 55.1%, 47.9%, and 46.9%, respectively, compared to their baseline values. This research aims to enhance the precision of carbon dioxide emission estimation and serves as a valuable reference for electricity‑carbon research in various sectors.
Distributed multi-energy systems (DMS) have received increasing attention. Many studies have optimized the capacity and operation strategies of DMS based on multiple objectives, but these studies must discuss the weights of different objectives and have not considered the internal coupling between different objectives. Besides, existing studies have not considered the changes in the actual value of environmental impacts. To address these shortcomings, this paper constructs a technology-economic-environmental optimization model by mixed-integer linear programming. Based on life-cycle assessment, the model quantifies the value of system life-cycle environmental impacts by introducing carbon price. The case results show that the proposed optimization model can reduce the total cost by 28.83% and the life cycle environmental cost by 3.39% compared to the traditional model. To reduce the strain on the grid, a new operation pattern (The grid provides fixed electricity to the system throughout the year.) is proposed. The electricity interaction of the system with the grid under the new operation pattern is more than 70% lower than the system without electricity purchased quantity constraint. Sensitivity analysis shows the total system cost is more sensitive to natural gas and electricity price than carbon price. But carbon price volatility helps reduce system carbon emissions.
China's decarbonization is indispensable for the large-scale utilization of renewable energy. In this process, the development of offshore wind energy has become an important support, because in the eastern region of China, especially the coastal areas, there's the most load requirements but limited onshore renewable resources. Under the goals of both carbon neutral and sustainable development, however, there's still a research gap in evaluating the environmental impacts of large-scale offshore wind plants in China. In this study, the research performed a comprehensive process-based life cycle environmental analysis of a large-scale (400 MW) offshore wind farm with large wind turbine units (5 MW) in China. Global Warming Potential is 25.73 g CO2-eq/kWh and greenhouse gas payback time is calculated as 12.05 months. Fossil fuel consumption amounts to 0.31 MJ/kWh with an energy payback period of 25.56 months. Material resources and ecotoxicity to freshwater need more attention with the values of 1.68 CTUe/kWh and 3.32 10-6 kg Sb-eq/kWh, respectively. The manufacturing stage contributes most to all the impacts examined. The disposal and recycling process shows significant environmental benefits for most impacts but exerts burdens on the particulate matter. Focusing on Global Warming Potential, the wind turbine generation set has the highest effect, among which the blades contribute 73.2% of it. Further, the evolution of electricity and heating mix of China and use of biomass-based precursors could decrease 57% of the blades' greenhouse gas emissions in 2050. This study could provide guidance on the sustainable design and policy-making of offshore wind farms.
The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) represents a significant economic zone with a diverse financial landscape. Understanding the spatial distribution of financial resources within this area is crucial for promoting balanced economic growth and financial development. This study investigates the spatial patterns of financial agglomeration in the GBA, identifying key influencing factors and assessing their impact on the region’s financial landscape. We employ the entropy value method to evaluate financial agglomeration levels across the GBA’s cities. Additionally, we use spatial econometric techniques to analyze the spatial correlations and the Geo-Detector model to determine the primary factors influencing financial agglomeration. The analysis reveals an overall increase in financial agglomeration, with significant disparities among cities. Key factors driving this agglomeration include transportation infrastructure, overseas trade, foreign direct investment (FDI), and technological advancements. Hong Kong and Shenzhen display notable unevenness in the distribution of financial industries. The interplay between finance, technology, and industrial sectors suggests considerable development potential. Understanding and optimizing the spatial distribution of financial resources is essential for fostering high-quality financial development and sustainable economic growth in the GBA. This study provides insights that can inform policy decisions aimed at enhancing financial integration and cooperation within the region.
Power grids play a crucial role in connecting electricity suppliers and consumers. They facilitate efficient power transmission and energy management, significantly contributing to the transition toward low-carbon practices across both upstream and downstream sectors. Effectively managing carbon reduction in the power industry is essential for enhancing carbon reduction efficiency and achieving dual-carbon goals. Recent studies have focused on the outcomes of carbon reduction efforts rather than the management process. However, when power grids prioritize the process of carbon reduction in their management, they are more likely to achieve better results. To address this gap, we propose an evaluation model for managing carbon reduction activities in power grids, comprising the carbon management efficiency (CME) module based on the maturity model and the carbon reduction efficiency (CRE) module based on the entropy method. The CME module provides a scorecard corresponding to a detailed and continuous evaluation model for carbon management processes to calculate its performance. Simultaneously, the CRE module relates carbon reduction results to the development direction of the government and power grid, allowing for effective adjustments and updates based on actual situations. The evaluation model was applied to provincial power grids within the China Central Power Grid. The results reveal that despite some fluctuations in carbon reduction performance, provincial power grids within the China Central Power Grid have made continuous progress in carbon reduction efforts. According to the synergy model, there is evidence suggesting that power grids are steadily improving their carbon reduction performance, and a more organized approach would lead to a greater degree of synergy. The evaluation model applies to power grids, and its framework can be extended to other industries, providing a theoretical reference for evaluating their carbon reduction efforts.
Based on endogenous growth theory,this article uses data from 31 provinces in China from 2001 to2019 to explore the effect of trade openness and FDI on domestic investment.The study finds that the effect of trade openness and FDI on domestic investment is non-linear in terms of transaction efficiency as a mechanism.Specifically,trade openness has a negative effect on domestic investment under low transaction efficiency.However,it has a promotion effect under moderate transaction efficiency.As transaction efficiency increases,the promotion effect of domestic investment by trade openness would gradually weaken before it disappears;FDI has a negative effect on domestic investment under low transaction efficiency,and a positive effect on domestic investment under high transaction efficiency.Taking industrialization level as a variable to further the research,as China’s industrialization process continues to deepen,industrial structure optimization is also a conditional threshold that affects trade opening and FDI on domestic investment.From the perspective of transaction efficiency,most areas of China should further improve the transaction efficiency so as to consistently release the positive effects of trade openness and FDI on domestic investment.The Midwest should expand its investment in infrastructure,marketization,urbanization,and education to reduce the uneven development of China’s regional economy.

Carbon price prediction can help participants keep abreast of carbon market dynamics and develop trading strategies. It is challenging for statistical models to accurately capture the nonlinear characteristics of the carbon pricing, and machine learning methods need sophisticated artificial feature engineering. To successfully address these drawbacks, our research suggests a carbon price forecasting model built on a deep learning architecture. Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise decomposes historical price to obtain Intrinsic Mode Function and Principal Component Analysis reduces the dimensionality of each influential factor. Dual-Stage Attention-Based Recurrent Neural Network, a Seq2Seq model, made up of an encoder with feature attention and a decoder with temporal attention, is employed to predicted price of the Hubei Carbon Emissions Allowance. The dual-attention mechanism enables preprocessing to be done adaptively and more effectively than manual processing. As shown by statistical analysis and grey correlation analysis, Hubei Carbon Emissions Allowance has a high autocorrelation, and the carbon market, energy and industry, economy, and environment have high to low correlations on it. The accuracy metrics of this framework, Mean Absolute Error = 0.75, Mean Absolute Percentage Error = 1.59 and Root Mean Squared Error = 1.28, are lower than compared models.

The distributed energy system (DES) is a promising technology that could enable decarbonization in the building sector. Comprehensive DES system assessment from a holistic perspective is crucial for system design, operation strategy selection, and performance optimization. This paper proposes a techno-economic-environmental integrated assessment model for comprehensive system evaluation. The DES configuration mainly includes a photovoltaic panel, ground source heat pump, gas turbine, absorption heat pump, and thermal storage tank. The system is simulated under three operation strategies with MATLAB/Simulink, which are following thermal load (FTL), following electric load (FEL), and following electric load with thermal storage (FELTS). Entropy-TOPSIS method is used to evaluate the DES's techno-economic-environmental performance under various operation strategies. The results indicate that the DES' primary energy efficiency ratio under the three operation strategies of FTL, FEL and FELTS are 51.49%, 86.78%, and 125.69%, respectively. The dynamic annual values are 1.05×106 CNY, 7.23×105 CNY, and 5.94×105 CNY, respectively. The total greenhouse gas emissions are 36.2 kgCO2eq/(m2∙a), 22.8 kgCO2eq/(m2∙a), and 16.4 kgCO2eq/(m2∙a), respectively. The entropy-TOPSIS analysis results showed that under FELTS operation strategy, DES performs the best; it has the best indicators for technical and environmental evaluation.
