This study uses VaR and ES to measure price risk in Hubei's carbon emissions trading market, developing DCS-type models with skewed Student-t distribution. Empirical analysis on daily HBEA spot prices from April 2014 to December 2024 shows …

Yuzi Jiang, Wei Cui, Zhenan Xu +6

This paper proposes a carbon trading and energy management approach for multi-microgrids with integrated energy systems. It introduces a collaborative framework with a carbon trading mechanism and solves a cross-regional dispatch model usin…

Jui‐Jung Liao, Hari M. Srivastava, Shy-Der Lin

This paper models a three-echelon sustainable supply chain for deteriorating items with imperfect quality, balancing economic efficiency and environmental responsibility. It considers carbon emissions from production, warehousing, and trans…

Chengyou Cui, J J Li

This paper proposes a Vehicle Routing Problem with Drones and Mobile Base Stations (VRPDBS) model incorporating airspace constraints and carbon price uncertainty. Using real data from Yanbian, China, it finds that strict airspace compliance…

B. Roy, Nayantara Ghosh

This study optimizes a production-inventory model under progressive carbon taxation, analyzing the roles of green investment, lead time, and price breaks. It reveals how the progressive structure of carbon taxes affects inventory management…

Tropical savannas account for ~70% of global burned area and carbon emissions from biomass burning. This special issue compiles 20 papers exploring market-based fire management to reduce emissions, generate carbon credits, and support biodi…

Yingke Yang, Zhiyun Zou, Congjian Liu +3

This study proposes a bi-level emission reduction congestion pricing model (ERCM) that integrates traffic pricing with environmental outcomes. Using MOVES-based gasoline emission factors and a power-energy conversion model for electric vehi…

Fausto Corvino

This paper critically examines how carbon pricing commodifies nature, arguing that market-based climate solutions may reinforce environmental degradation. It highlights the risks of pricing natural systems and calls for alternative approach…

This paper assesses the role of nature-based solutions (NbS) in voluntary corporate climate commitments by adapting the DICE23 model to include demand for voluntary corporate carbon abatement and supply costs for NbS and non-CO2 credits. Sc…

Wei Chen, Ruonan Zhu, Jing Chen

This study uses a biform game to analyze clean energy investment in an electricity supply chain under a unit carbon quota mechanism (UCM). It finds that UCM promotes investment and demand only when unit carbon emissions are low; under high …

Yun Fei, Qianbing Xiao, Dongxiao Yang

This study empirically examines the impact of carbon emissions trading schemes (ETS) on residents' medical expenses using a multi-period difference-in-differences approach. The findings suggest that ETS implementation significantly reduces …

Shuqin Zhao, Baozhong Cui, Linzhong Liu +2

This study models the pricing of emission permits and path planning in urban transportation networks under an emission trading scheme (ETS). It provides a theoretical framework for integrating carbon pricing with transport routing to suppor…

Shuaiyu Chen, Wenjun Guo, Jiameng Yang

Under China's Dual Carbon goals, this study empirically analyzes a composite mechanism combining carbon trading and a carbon tax proxy on household carbon emissions using CFPS data. Findings show that while total emissions are not significa…

Xiaodan Guo, Bowen Xiao, Ce Jia +5

This paper proposes a novel equilibrium analysis framework to assess the feasibility of implementing an Emission Trading Scheme (ETS) in China's central heating sector. Results show ETS can shift the focus from gas boilers to industrial sur…

Teresa Totaro, Noemi Tortorici, Carmelo Mosca +3

This study assesses water and carbon footprints of organic cotton under Mediterranean conditions across three sites, two cultivars, and three irrigation regimes, integrating economic valuation via EU ETS and Social Cost of Carbon. Results s…
