Regional Economic Gro wth and Differences of Energy Intensity in China Qi Shaozhou and Luo Wei (Wuhan University ; Hubei Branch of Agricultural Bank of China) Abstract :We suppose that the difference of energy intensity between the Western region and the Eastern region in China is the function of the difference of per capita GDP between the two regions. Then we model the relationship between the two variables together with other regression variables and estimate the coefficients by panel data of 30 provinces from 1995 to Our findings are as follows. Firstly, the difference of per capita GDP tends to convergence between the Western region and the Eastern region. The difference of energy intensity between the two regions, as a whole, also tends to convergence with the convergence of per capita GDP although the convergence speed of the energy intensity is slower than the convergence speed of per capita GDP. Secondly, it is different that the energy intensity of individual province in the Western region shows convergence or divergence. The policy implication of this paper is that the government should encourage and guide different provinces to cooperate by taking advantage of their own energy endowment and the difference of energy intensity when the government makes the strategy of regional economic development. As a result, regional economic growth can be based on saving energy, regional balance and sustainability. Key Words : Per Capita GDP ; Energy Intensity ; Regional Difference ; Convergence JEL Classification :Q430, R110 (: ) ( : ) 81
