we analyzed the relationship between energy conservation and economic using panel data. the reduction of energy consumption per unit of GDP and energy consumption per unit of industrial value-added will promote economic growth, however, lower electricity consumption per unit of GDP may inhibit economic growth. Finally, this article puts forward corresponding suggestions, including improving the relevant laws and regulations, speeding up the energy saving information disclosure, improving public participation mechanisms, speeding up the adjustment of industrial structure and technological innovations, and promoting the reform of energy prices.

Instrumental Variables Approach

Do countries consume more electricity as they become richer? This study uses an instrumental variables approach to investigate the connection between electricity consumption and economic growth. With panel data of 32 countries spanning the period of 1996-2014, two potential instruments, which are an oil price shock as the main focus and past saving rates, are used for estimation. Controlling for country and time-¿xed e൵ects, the estimation results show no evidence of unidirectional causality runs from national income to electricity consumption.
