Abstract

By virtue of window analysis and by using DEAP2.1 software, this paper first calculates China’s provincial domain environment- energy efficiency.Then, by using the spatial statistical software ArcGIS9.3 and exerting the combined method of ESDA and Standard Deviational Ellipses, it analyzes Chinese provincial environment - energy efficiency’s spatial pattern evolution characteristics to reveal that China's environment - energy efficiency has a significant spatial auto-correlation and that the area coverage of China's environment - energy efficiency’s hot and sub hot spots has been expanding gradually while that of cold and sub cold spots has been shrinking unceasingly since 2001. During the period of 2000-2012, the standard deviational ellipses of Chinese provincial environment - energy efficiency presents the northeast - southwest spatial distribution pattern as it gradually shifts towards east - west direction. On the whole, the main part of environment-energy efficiency changes from northeast, northwest to southwest direction, with the junction of Henan and Hubei province as the center and covering provinces that are relatively advanced in economy and technology . The dynamic evolution characteristics of Chinese provincial environment - energy efficiency spatial pattern enlightens the government to take a green, low carbon, cyclic development road under the “new normal” background, to pay more attention to the function of spatial correlation.
