Abstract: The article builds the simultaneous equations model of the total effect of FDI influencing China’s industrial energy consumption, Chinese provinces industrial panel data as the study sample, uses 2SLS and GMM methods to empirically estimate the equations model, and elastic analysis to calculate the magnitude and direction of the different effects at the path of FDI. The results show that the total effect of FDI influencing China’s industrial energy consumption is negative, the entry of foreign capital increases by 1%, the total effect is to make China’s industrial energy consumption increase by 0.19%, the negative FDI scale effect (0.15%) and FDI composition effect (0.21%) overwhelm the positive FDI technique effect (0.17%).
