Abstract

In this study, the LMDI method is used to decompose the production power consumption changes of the Yangtze River Economic Zone into an advanced technology effect, structural effect, income effect, and population effect. The regional and industry differences in the driving effect of electricity consumption change are also investigated. From the perspective of time differences, the progress of power-saving technology is the main factor restraining the growth of electricity consumption; whereas, economic growth, industry structure adjustment, and population size adjustment promote the growth of electricity consumption; and the other three influencing factors, in turn, decrease. From the perspective of regional differences, regional electricity consumption varies significantly, and various regions have great room for improvement in industry structure. Regional population affects electricity consumption from two aspects: absolute population quantity change and population mobility. From the perspective of industry differences, electricity consumption varies significantly among industries and is mainly reflected in the effect of technological progress and structural effects. As a result, control measures on electricity consumption in the Yangtze River Economic Zone should focus on the promotion of power-saving technology and industry structure adjustment.
