Abstract

Based on the panel data of 20 industries in China's manufacturing industry from 2005 to 2015, with the degree of industrial agglomeration as the threshold variable, the relationship between industrial agglomeration and energy intensity is studied using the threshold regression method. The empirical results show that industrial agglomeration is beneficial to reduce energy intensity within the range of lower industrial agglomeration degree. The industrial agglomeration has a negative influence on energy intensity within a high degree of agglomeration. The industrial scale and r & d investment have a positive impact on energy intensity. The decline in energy intensity has a significant inhibitory effect on the relative price of energy and the proportion of state-owned enterprises. Finally, specific Suggestions for improving energy intensity are proposed, such as reasonably guiding, controlling industrial agglomeration and reducing government intervention.
