Abstract

With the improvement of living standards, household carbon emissions have exhibited a significant upward trend. In northern regions, the substantial influence of seasonal heating demand results in higher energy consumption and carbon emission levels among households. However, micro-level studies examining the characteristics of per-household carbon emissions and their influencing factors in these areas remain scarce and limited. Consequently, there is an urgent need for more comprehensive research to provide a theoretical foundation for formulating precise carbon emission reduction policies and strategies. this study employs the emission coefficient method to quantify the carbon emissions resulting from energy consumption by urban and rural households in northern regions. The findings indicate that electricity consumption and transportation-related travel are prominent sources of carbon emissions among northern households; additionally, the use of natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and other energy sources also contributes significantly to overall emissions. Notably, coal-fired heating has a particularly pronounced impact on household carbon emissions during winter months.
