SPATIAL IMBALANCE AND DYNAMIC EVOLUTION OF CHINA'S LOW-CARBON ENERGY CONSUMPTION STRUCTURE
It is a key step to study China's low-carbon energy consumption structural trend and to measure its spatial imbalance in advancing energy reform and green development.This paper,based on 2003 to 2020 energy consumption panel data of Chinese provinces/cities,uses Theil Index and spatial auto-correlation to study spatial imbalance and dynamic evolution of China's low carbon energy consumption structure.The low carbon index of China's energy consumption structure generally shows a rising trend,up 5.862 in 2020 from 5.298 in 2003.The spatial imbalance of China's low carbon energy consumption structure is weak,in a rising-then-declining trend indicated by Theil Index.Regional low-carbon energy consumption structure variance largely impacts the overall difference.China's low-carbon energy consumption structure is of obvious spatial positive correlation with spatial concentrating effect,relatively stably in overall spatial pattern,high-high concentrating in Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai,weak-weak in southwest and central China.This paper presents suggestions on constructing regional interest union by mutually cooperation,on advancing industrial structure to stimulate social innovation and market,and on optimizing energy industry structure to push energy consumption transformation.
