Research On China Industry Intemational Competitiveness Based On Low Carbon Economy

With the contradiction between the resources, environment and economic development deepening, the human economic activities cause global climate warming more and more seriously, so the development of low carbon economy has been the global common recognition. Low carbon ecnonomy refers to under the double constrains of resources and environmental, in order to reduce negative effects of human economic activities on the climate system, we must though technology innovation and institution design as far as possible to reduce the consumption of mineral high carbon energy, and reduce greenhouse gae emission, at last realize human survival, economy, social and ecological environment sustainable development. Low carbon economy is a mode of economic development which we must choice. How to develop the economy better, especially industrial production, which has become a problem that needs us to solute urgently.Based on the influence of development of low carbon economy on the industry international competitiveness as the breakthrough point, according to the requirements of low carbon economy to the industry international competitiveness, introduce the low carbon index layer into the general system of industry international competitiveness. After using the Delphi method and AHP method to distribute the weight of every index layer, the result shows that low carbon economy has little effect on the labour intensive industry(texitile industry,etc.) and high technology industry(communication electronics, etc.), but has noteworthy effect on high carbon industry(energy intensive industry) by evaluating and comparing the situation and changes in industry international competitiveness based on the low carbon economy of China manufacturing industry during1995and2010.The main innovation points of in the research process include the following three aspects:(1)Introdution the industry international competitiveness of low carbon index layer enclosing the connotation of low carbon economy. Consruct the industry international competitiveness evaluation index system based on the low carbon economy and use the Delphi method and AHP method to distribute the weight of five onelevel indexes.(2)Evaluation and comparision of the situation and changes in the China manufacturing industry international competitiveness during1995and2010. If using the general industrial international competitiveness evaluation index system,28industries of China manufacturing industry international competitiveness have been improved outstandingly, but international competitiveness of textile industry is declining normally through the transverse comparison. When the low carbon indexes are introduced, although international competitiveness of most industries are positive, the situation of every industy is in the long wave state. It shows that every industry has not formatted the reduction emission mechanism due to the lack of internal notive power, and is easy to be affected by outside factors.(3)Empirical analysis of the influence factors of industry international competitiveness based on the low carbon economy adopting the dynamic panel data and system GMM method. The result shows that carbon dioxide emission and industry structure, energy consumption, export structure and foreigh investment industry structure are related with different degree. But with the industry labor production efficiency increasing, the carbon dioxide emission intensity increased firstly and then decreaed. It may apperar "N" restructure if the conditions outside are comfortable.In view of the above, and considering the result of the verification if1960-2010carbon emission of China meeting the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis. The result shows that the relationship between GDP per capita and carbon emission intensity of China is "inverted U", and the inflection point in the per capita GDP of＄18769.72. Therefore, according to the current international environment and climate change rate, China could not waiting for the natural arrival of the inflection point depending on the GDP growth rate. China can improve the industry international competitiveness from seven aspects, including stabling the growth of economy and transforming the mode of economy growth, formulating the industrial green development strategy, adjusting the industrial structure and promote industrial fusion, encouraging low carbon technology introduction and innovation, creating the national unified carbon trading market, configurating rational reduction management policies, participating in International Emissions Standards,strengthening international communication and cooperation.
