Decoupling Analysis of China Economic Growth and Energy Consumption
China' s current industrial development is in the medium-term,economic development mode changing from extensive economic growth mode to intensive economic growth model.But,the current dominant industry structure is still industry with large consumption of energy.Energy shortage,environmental pollution and ecological damage are bottlenecks constraining economic development.In order to construct resource saving society and environmental friendly society,Eleventh Five Year Plan clearly stated that by 2010,energy consumption the unit GDP of was 20% lower than that in 2005 and emissions of major pollutants was 10% lower than that in 2005.Research on decoupling of economic growth and energy consumption helps to build a resource saving society,and change the mode of economic growth.The article expatiated the relation between energy consumption and economic growth,using decoupling theory,based on decoupling index.The article analyzed historical data in 1990-2007 samples and conclude that some times economic growth and energy consumption are in the absolute decoupling condition,and some times economic growth and energy consumption are in the comparative decoupling condition in a certain stage.
