Research on Temporal Dynamic Characteristics and Driving Forces of Energy Ecological Footprint in China

摘要

In this paper, dynamic characteristics of energy ecological footprint (EEF), energy footprint intensity (EFI) and ecological pressure intensity of energy footprint (EPIEF) in china from 1990 to 2007 are analyzed. The result showed that: During the past two decades, EEF in china showed fluctuation increased trend, consumption structure of energy has been improved, whereas proportion of coal footprint is also major and becoming rising in recent years; EFI showed exponential decreasing trend and utilization efficiency of energy was increasing; EPIEF showed growth trend, which means pressure of energy consumption on natural ecological system was enhancing. On this condition, calculating model for indicating the driving forces of EEF is constructed with non-linear multianalysis methods.
