摘要: The study aims to identify appropriate methods that can help organisations reduce energy use and emissions by using an effective concept of sustainability. In different countries, estimates marginal abatement costs for reducing GHG have been widely used. Around the world, many researchers focused on MACCs reported results. This may due assumptions used which in turn lead uncertainty inaccuracy. Under these circumstances, much attention has paid need role MACC providing reliable information decision makers various stakeholders. By reviewing literature, this paper analysed terms approaches MACCs, representations applications, pricing carbon, verification, sectors analysis projections. concludes should depend actual data provide more assist (firms sectors) stockholders determine what method emission.
