五大发电集团主导着中国的电力行业，在中国的碳交易体系中发挥着至关重要的作用。在此背景下，本文研究了基于公平和效率原则的中国五大发电企业碳排放配额分配问题，证明了建立全国碳市场的首要前提。具体而言，建立了双层规划模型对企业进行碳排放配额的最优分配，并采用零和收益数据包络分析（ZSG-DEA）模型对分配效率进行评价，从而向最优解调整。结果表明，发电对碳排放配额的分配具有显著的正向影响。最优碳排放总量与分配碳配额总量之差为14.31亿吨，说明五大发电企业的减排潜力巨大。最后，本文的双层模型可以很好地反映中国电力行业的背景，为碳配额的分配提供有效的结果。(C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
The five major power generation corporations dominate the power industry in China, and play vital roles in China's carbon trading scheme. Under this circumstance, this paper studies the allocation of carbon emission quotas to China's five major power generation corporations based on the fairness and efficiency principles, which proves the primary prerequisite for setting up the national carbon market. Specifically, a bi-level programming model is developed to optimally allocate carbon emission quotas to the corporations, and then a zero sum gains data envelopment analysis (ZSG-DEA) model is adopted to evaluate the efficiency of the allocation so as to adjust towards the optimal solution. The results indicate that power generation has significantly positive influence on the allocation of carbon emission quotas. Moreover, the difference between the sum of optimal carbon emissions and the sum of carbon quotas allocated is 1.431 billion tons, which implies that the emission reduction potential of the five major power generation corporations is tremendous. Finally, the bi-level model in this paper can well capture the context of China's power industry and provide effective results for the allocation of carbon quotas. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
