Research on the Impact of Low-Carbon Technology Innovation on Electricity Intensity

This paper selects the relevant data of 13 prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu Province from 2002 to 2018, and the impact of low-carbon technology innovation on industrial electricity consumption under different spatial linkage intensity is measured by the entropy method with the calculation of traffic linkage intensity, economic linkage intensity and information linkage intensity between each city and the surrounding cities incorporated into the system two-stage GMM model. The results of the study found that low-carbon technology innovation has a significant negative effect on industrial electricity intensity, and its impact on power intensity is different under different urban spatial linkages.
