Pricing and Emission Reduction Strategies of Heterogeneous Automakers Under the “Dual-Credit + Carbon Cap-and-Trade” Policy Scenario

Mathematics
Against the backdrop of increasingly severe global climate change, the automotive industry, as a carbon-intensive sector, has found its low-carbon transformation crucial for achieving the “double carbon” goals. This paper constructs manufacturer decision-

Trade Balance and Fuel Demand in Kosovo

European Journal of Sustainable Development, 2015
Abstract Gasoline and diesel are the main sources of fuel required for modern life and transportation, and the adjustment of gasoline and diesel prices has become a major public issue. The drastic fluctuations in recent international oil prices have affected retail gasoline and diesel prices also in the Western Balkan countries and prompted public ...
