Background of Pakistan's industrial sector The industrial sector is generally known to be an industry of enormous energy utilization and a high environmental pollution sector. For instance, in the overall world's energy consumption, the industrial sector consumes a high share of approximately 40% [ 29 ].
Thus, Pakistan's industrial energy-related CO 2 Es are estimated based on ‘5’ decomposition factors (i.e., carbon intensity, energy structure, energy intensity, employee's value-added, and intensity scale), which have not been discussed in past studies.
Moreover, in Pakistan, the energy consumption of the industrial sector uses a greater share, approximately 37.1%, excluding transport, domestic, commercial, agriculture, and other government [ 7 ]. This sector is an economic engine, providing local and foreign markets output.
However, the rate of change of energy is lower than that of GDP of the industrial sector during 2000, which is consistent with the study of Zhang et al. [ 82 ], who estimated energy consumption in various sectors of China. Pakistan's industrial sector is the major driver of social, economic and environmental degradation.
The industrial sector is accountable for above 49% of Pakistan's CO 2 Es. During the past two decades, coal has been the primary energy source in the industrial sector because no other energy source is low-cost and plentiful than coal [ 8 ]. Thus, CO 2 Es from the industries rose from 17.21 Mt to 95.2 Mt during 1990–2019 [ 9 ].
Moreover, as per the regional scale, Pakistan has certain limitations. As per the latest outcomes, industrial structure, energy intensity and energy structure are crucial factors in varying carbon emissions. For this, a productive system limits the range of contributing technologies that can fulfill production demand and growing projects.
