Abstract: In this paper, we use a dynamic CGE model SICGE-1 to analyze China’s energy efficiency issue. The historical simulation is conducted through the 2 phases of 1997-2002 and 2003-2005. We find that the energy consumption per GDP increased during 2003-2005, but the energy consumption technologies in most of industries made great progress. The detailed analysis shows that for most of energy production industries and energy intensity industries, the effectiveness of TFP decreased in 2003-2005, compared with that in 1997-2002; the effectiveness of capital input continuously changed worse and the improvement of labor input changed to moderate; the effectiveness of energy intermediate input in energy intensive industries changed better continuously in 2003-2005 than that in 1997-2002.
