Dynamic Analysis of Energy Consumption and Energy Productivity of Tianjin

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper based on ecological footprint model, by using 2001-2011 years of historical statistical data, calculated and dynamic analyzed the energy status of Tianjin. In the process of analysis, the use of energy ecological footprint represents energy consumption, the value of energy ecological footprint and energy ecological footprint intensity indicates energy productivity. The results showed that: During the study period, energy ecological footprint and the value of energy ecological footprint showed an increasing trend, energy ecological footprint intensity is on the decline. These suggests that energy productivity enhances unceasingly. But due to the rapid economic growth, energy consumption for the ecological environment pressure increased. Besides, coal-dominated energy consumption structure is not conducive to achieving sustainable development in Tianjin.
