REEVALUATION OF PROVINCIAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN CHINA INCORPOATING HUMAN CAPITAL STOCK

摘要

The static energy efficiency (EE_2) regarding the employee as labor input presents difference between static energy efficiency (EE_1) when incorporating human capital as labor input respectively, which can prove the point in this paper that even though the same number of employees, the personal ability to accept education and training is different, their effect on productivity and efficiency in the real production process is different obviously. The national level static EE_1 has increased performance in the periods 2003-2008 and 2010-2011, and performance decreases in the periods 2008-2010. The EE_1 performance shows diversity among the east, central and western regions. Moreover, the o convergence of static EE_1 shows diversity at the national and the three major regional levels. And technological change makes greater contribution than the efficiency change in the dynamic EE_1 performance. Actually, except for technological change and efficiency change, there are also some other factors which may influence the regional efficiency difference, further research in the aspect of influencing factors can be carried out in empirical analysis.
