Total carbon emissions in the Yangtze River Delta region decreased by over 65% from 2008 to 2022.
Economic scale was the main driver of emissions, while output carbon intensity helped to reduce them.
A novel decoupling index model showed that Shanghai achieved strong decoupling during 2014–2016.
Strategic recommendations emphasize region-specific carbon reduction strategies and optimizing energy structures.
