Research on carbon emissions of complex interactive activities in urban agglomerations is one of the hotspots of global climate change research. A comprehensive analysis of the urban agglomeration system’s carbon emissions is essential to reveal strategies for reduction and support sustainable development. The objective of this research is to develop an integrated carbon emission network model to explore the impact of different energy types on the Northeast Industrial District (NID), China. Four representative energy groups are considered. Specifically, at the aggregated sector-level, this research quantified the relative contributions of socioeconomic factors to carbon emission changes using structural decomposition analysis and examined the system efficiency and redundancy through robustness analysis. At the disaggregated level, the research investigated carbon emissions of different sectors from production-based, consumption-based, and income-based viewpoints. Moreover, emissions from specific categories of final demand and primary input were quantified. It was found that the increase of final demand level will proceed to push up the carbon emissions of the NID. Changing the production structure contributes to reducing emissions. The carbon emissions system has a high redundancy and low efficiency, illustrating that there are many emission pathways within the system. In addition, the use of crude oil significantly increases system redundancy and inhibits system efficiency. However, the major limitation of the model is that the long-term changes of the system are not considered. Moreover, considering the actual policies, emission reduction simulations could be added in the future.
