Study on the Relationship Between Carbon Emission Decoupling and Energy Security in the Yellow River Basin
In order to provide a reference for comprehensively promoting the high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin and realizing the goal of"dual carbon",this paper took 2005-2022 as the study period,built an energy security index system,adopted the entropy meth-od to measure the energy security level of provinces in the Yellow River Basin and adopted the Tapio model to measure the decoupling state of carbon emissions of provinces in the Yellow River Basin.The relationship between carbon decoupling and energy security was empirically ana-lyzed by using the fixed effect model.The results show that a)the energy security level of all provinces in the Yellow River Basin shows an upward trend during the study period,but the energy security pressure is still large at the end of the study period and the difference between provinces is large.The energy security situation is not optimistic on the whole.b)The decoupling state of carbon emissions in the provinces of the Yellow River Basin shows a good development during the study period.Most provinces have a strong decoupling state,but the decoupling state is unstable,meaning that it is difficult to maintain the best state.c)The improvement of energy security has a promoting effect on the decoupling of carbon emissions in the Yellow River Basin,and this promoting effect is more significant after 2012.Some policy suggestions are put forward to systematically improve the level of energy security in the Yellow River Basin,accelerate the process of"carbon peaking"and accelerate the transformation of economic development mode.
