Abstract

Anaerobic digestion technology (ADT) is a crucial promoter for China to fulfill the Paris Agreement as scheduled. ADT can synchronously reduce carbon emissions from agricultural waste and improve renewable energy utilization, but its promotion has not achieved the expected results. This study constructs new network game models and evaluates ADT diffusion law under the individual and comprehensive effects of key factors. The results indicate that: (1) The effect of feed-in tariff (FIT) subsidy on promoting enterprises to adopt ADT is limited. On the contrary, carbon tax has a significant impact on corporate strategic choices at the same level; (2) The benchmark price of tradable green certificate (TGC) and the market demand for biogas power generation are both sluggish, which is an important obstacle to ADT diffusion; (3) The strong connectivity of hubs in the scale-free network and the higher average degree in the small-world network can both increase the diffusion depth of ADT. This study provides an effective reference for promoting agricultural waste conversion to renewable energy and helping China achieve the dual carbon goal.
