长江经济带工业能源效率空间差异及影响因素研究

运用能源强度、离散系数、莫兰指数综合测度1999—2013年长江经济带工业能源效率空间差异及发展趋势,并建立面板托宾模型探索工业能源效率影响因素,分析表明：长江经济带省际工业能源效率从下游至上游存在梯度差异,空间差异由趋异向趋同转变,省际工业能源效率呈现空间集聚特征;长江经济带工业能源效率与经济发展水平、工业比重、政府影响力（财政支出比重）、电力消费比例、研发投入力度呈正相关,与能源消费比例、煤炭消费比例呈负相关,与对外开放水平的关系不明确。提高工业能源效率,长江经济带上游地区应提高研发投入在国民经济中的比重,下游地区要加快能源消费结构的优化升级,而中游地区工业能源效率受能源消费比例影响明显,提升潜力较大。
