Abstract

The rapid development of China’s economy has caused environmental pollution in China. This paper will explore whether the external economies of scale caused by China’s urban economic and financial agglomeration will affect the energy efficiency of cities and enterprises in the same industry in the city, and help China reduce pollutant emissions. In addition, the paper will analyze the spatial attributes of the impact of economic and financial agglomeration on urban energy efficiency through spatial autocorrelation and spatial heterogeneity. Through the article comparing the pollutants of China’s five economic and financial agglomeration areas (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Haikou, and Shenyang) in 2014 and 2020, and the pollutant data of neighboring cities in the financial agglomeration area, this paper mainly argues that economic and financial agglomeration areas The external economies of scale caused by agglomeration can increase the efficiency of urban energy utilization, and urban energy efficiency exhibits spatial autocorrelation. The research in this paper can help to understand the impact of economic agglomeration on China’s energy use. This paper can help to better balance the problem of economic development and energy emissions.
