Abstract

Scholars at home and abroad always focus on the low-carbon urban development. This paper described the basic theory of low-carbon city, analyzed the main factors effect the urban carbon emissions based on principal components analysis method, and established evaluation model to adapt to the development of low-carbon city. Finally, reasonable proposals have been proposed to provide scientific and theoretical basis for government decision making.

Keywords: Evaluation model, low-carbon urban, principal components analysis.
