China's Low-Carbon Economy and Regional Energy Efficiency Index Analysis

Energy is an important material basis for the survival and development of human society, China's rapid economic growth accompanied by low efficiency of energy utilization, the pressure of the rapid rise in carbon emissions, reasonable measure, and a comprehensive analysis of energy efficiency, which is a clear understanding of an important part of China's current economic development, energy use and carbon dioxide emissions overall efficiency of the situation. Economic development is the most important determinant of the increase in carbon dioxide emissions in China, but we cannot mitigate carbon dioxide emissions by slowing down economic growth, we should focus on reducing energy intensity, increasing the consumption of low-carbon energy. Therefore, from the point of view of regional differences, through the analysis of the regional characteristics of the energy consumption and carbon emissions, measuring 2005 to 2011, China's 30 provinces and municipalities energy efficiency, building energy efficiency index of different dimensions, compare the energy efficiency differences, fluctuations, balance of China's eastern, central and western regions and provinces, and do the energy efficiency forecasting at the same time. Found that there is an obvious persistent regularity in the evolution of the energy efficiency of other regions. The energy efficiency of the various regions will continue to maintain growth. It has a very important practical significance to achieve corresponding to different regions of the improvement of energy intensity and energy structure of the low-carbon target.
