Abstract

Abstract: This paper attempts to explore the impacts of energy construction adjustment on energy intensity and economic growth based on the 3D energy-saving and emission-reduction (ESER) system, which has not yet been discussed in present literature. The dynamic behavior of the system is discussed. The results of the scenario study show that, energy construction adjustment could effectively control energy intensity. When the investment of economic to energy construction adjustment gets bigger, energy intensity becomes larger. This is because this practice could control energy intensity while brings inhibiting impact on economic growth. Rationally and efficiently utilizing the investment of economic to energy construction adjustment is the key in the current ESER system.
