  • Paving the way to carbon neutrality

    Open AccessYuanyuan Wang, Minda Ma et al.ARTICLESustainable Cities and Society2025

    In the context of increasing global climate change, decarbonizing the residential building sector is crucial for sustainable development. This study aims to analyze the role of various influencing factors in carbon intensity changes using the decomposing structural decomposition (DSD) to assess and compare the potential and effectiveness of electrifying end-use activities during the operational phase of residential buildings worldwide for decarbo…

  • Decarbonizing or illusion? How carbon emissions of commercial building operations change worldwide

    Open AccessLiming Chen, Minda Ma et al.ARTICLESustainable Cities and Society2023

    To lead the low-carbon transition in global buildings, this study is the first to use the generalized Divisia index method (GDIM) to identify the factors driving carbon emissions and assess the decarbonization performance in commercial building operations (CBOs) of sixteen countries during 2000-2019. Results show that (1) while the global carbon emissions from CBOs have increased at a modest rate of 0.9%/yr, this trend runs counter to the declini…
