A Hybrid Framework for Direct CO Emissions Quantification in China's Construction Sector.

Carbon emission quantifications in China are not consistent, with many standards and methods having been used over the years. This study identified the non-consideration of China-specific technology and databases as a factor limiting comprehensive quantification. The study aimed to comprehensively quantify regional direct CO emission in the industry using a hybrid of economic and environmental data.

Unfolding interregional energy flow structure of China's construction sector based on province-level data.

The construction sector is a critical part in achieving energy conservation targets in China, as it accounts for approximately 30% of the annual national energy supply for building construction. Therefore, this study integrates multi-regional input-output analysis and ecological network analysis to track energy fluxes and pathways from the construction sector, aiming to facilitate the configuration of the energy-flow structure and improve understanding of the region's responsibilities. Results of a spatial distribution analysis show that the eastern area of China leads in fossil energy consumption (e.

Improving Management of Green Retrofits from a Stakeholder Perspective: A Case Study in China.

Green retrofits, which improve the environment and energy efficiency of buildings, are considered a potential solution for reducing energy consumption as well as improving human health and productivity. They represent some of the riskiest, most complex, and most uncertain projects to manage. As the foundation of project management, critical success factors (CSFs) have been emphasized by previous research.

Multiregional input-output model for China's farm land and water use.

Land and water are the two main drivers of agricultural production. Pressure on farm land and water resources is increasing in China due to rising food demand. Domestic trade affects China's regional farm land and water use by distributing resources associated with the production of goods and services.
