Abstract:
The effects environmental pollution caused by energy consumption are having on public health in China are quickly becoming increasingly serious. In this paper, we establish an evolutionary game model for enterprises, governments, and the public to analyze selection mechanisms and impact factors of these three constituents, thus considering health damage compensation. From game theory, these three stakeholders fail to converge to an ideal evolutionary stable strategy in some domains of the given three-dimensional space; however, we have found that, under certain conditions, these three stakeholders can converge to an ideal evolutionary stable strategy in certain domains, i.e., implementing energy transformation, enterprise regulation, and public participation in environment control. We show the effects that the variety of decision-making parameters have on evolutionary results via numerical experiments. We found that when the proportion of influence that the government group exercises in terms of regulations remains fixed, the higher the proportion of public participation in environmental management (and therefore higher health damage compensation) and the faster the speed by which the enterprise group evolves and energy transformation is realized. We also discuss the effects that government subsidies, tax deductions and exemptions, and government fines have on the evolutionary results, making some suggestions for policymakers as part of our conclusions.
